Sweet dreams for the happy couple with this super cute stenciled doe and buck pillow case set. I love to decorate with the deer theme whenever I can. I even simply use antlers most of the time. Included in the FolkArt Woodland set of stencils there is a charming set of doe and buck stencils […]
As an artist, I find myself spending time looking at trends in and out of my wheelhouse—trends in home decor, clothing, kitchens, art, and design. I read magazines, check blogs, visit websites, and even brave watching some design shows to stay up on what is happening. Sometimes I see color combinations that inspire a project. […]
Use a clever painting technique to turn an old plastic pot into a little work of art. Once done, the pot will look as if it has been covered with plywood. Add jute ribbon, a small succulent, some pebbles, and a pot that was previously ready to be thrown out, has received a new lease […]

Parties and weddings are a wonderful time to celebrate life and love.
