things to make:

  1. these door mats from pottery barn at almost $100. i'm going to find a plain mat and use a little spray paint and tape to make my own!
2. i love the rick rack embellishment on these simple white curtains. thinking about doing this for my living room.
or maybe something like this...

3. i need a headboard! i have a beautiful antique iron bed, but at 6'3" ben doesn't fit on it! so i thought i'd make one similar to this. i can't seem to find tack strips anywhere though. ideas of where i can find them?


aaaannnndddd i finally got around to making the ottoman that i talked about in THIS post. i ended up doing it a bit differently, i'll share pictures tomorrow!

  5. Love the doormat! And as much as they're used, the paint/ink/whatever it is, usually wears off in a couple of months anyway. If you end up making one, you'll have to let us all know how it turns out!
