Where Will Our Guests Sleep!?
We finally took on the task of renovating the basement! And with company coming in one week we needed a guest room in a hurry. Thank you 2 day delivery!!

Adhesive Removal
Pre-adhesive backed decor items can be a game changer for the do-it-yourselfer. We had this mirror that sat in the garage for months. We weren’t kind to her and when I finally decided I wanted to hang it in the nursery I noticed a few dings on the top of the frame! So instead of repairing and painting it, I decided I was gonna make it girly and cute while covering those ugly scuffs. I used adhesive backed moss and hot glued flowers to the top of it! It made a super cute girly frame for a mirror that never got hung! Super cute right?! Well just over a year…
