DIY Dollar Store Pumpkins Makeover

Even though we don’t get Fall in Southwest Florida where I live, it doesn’t mean I can’t decorate a little and pretend it is Fall.  It’s always warm here and will remain approximately 92 degrees until probably October.  Then the temps will go down into the 80’s for our Winter.  But, I’m not complaining.  I’d take this over a cold winter any day.  Anyway, I have been seeing all this…

DIY Coastal Coasters

Remember a few months ago when I redid this old end table?  If not, check it out.  I applied some nautical map wrapping paper to the top of the table for a coastal look, and had lots of the paper left over.  I’ve been wanting to use it for something….but, hmmmm….what to do with it?  I was on Instagram one day recently and saw a post from someone I follow…
