Build a longer table, not a higher fence.
Meatless meals, sewing patterns, old dogs, xennial. Love a good thrift. ♻️🌍💚

Working on some upcycled, reusable pads for donation. Had a giggle at Baby Shark’s face — gives a whole new meaning to shark week. 🩸🤭

I tried mending this backpack several times, but it’s a lost cause. Time to harvest the zippers!

Kiddo spotted this backpack at the thrift and wants me to make it a cross-body bag.
She’s got a good eye. 🐠🪡

The worst part of making potato salad? The anxiety around over/under boiling potatoes.

Happy Friday morning! ☀️
I tried to get closer to the bird in the water, but it majestically flew away.
Guessing it was a heron.

Cleaning out my silverware drawer today. A simple task that makes a big difference.

Will vanities ever come back in style? 🤔
We thrifted a bedroom set this weekend because I liked the dresser. This mirror was on a vanity which I may commission hubs to turn into two end tables.
Maybe we’ll keep the mirror, too…?
Either way, we’re in for a new style. So long, IKEA!

Most mornings, I wake and wish I’d prepped scones for breakfast. Last night, I actually did. 😋

I thrifted these sweatshirts for my eldest niece several years ago. She and her sister both loved them and now they’re onto my daughter.
When she’s outgrown them, they’ll go on to another set of siblings.
Reusing is so easy and so achieveable if you just make the effort. ♻️

Scooped up this lemon print table cloth yesterday and am looking forward to making matching mother-daughter skirts with it. 👗🥰

I have random cravings for this coffee cake from my childhood, so yesterday I thrifted a Bundt pan and made one.
What’s your favorite recipe to make in a Bundt pan?
