Nail Polish is the New Paint?

You know when you see a Buzzfeed video, and it sparks an idea? That is what happened to me, though more specifically, the idea that Buzzfeed presented was more of a challenge that I felt the need to accept. Nail polish, when added to cold water, can be used to make plain mugs and dollar store glasses into works of art. This is not a joke, people!

Cork It.

If you are anything like me, copious amounts of wine can get consumed in a week--depending on the type of week you are having, of course. :) The age old question (at least for me), is what can be done with all the corks?!

Let's take a look at the best of the best, all while sipping on a glass of wine, of course!

I Dream of Log Cabins

Have you ever watched the show Barnwood Builders? It is a show about five West Virginians who salvage old barns. I've recently became hooked on this show, and it is making me dream of log cabins. There is just something so authentic about these log cabins; they incorporate nature, and bring the natural beauty of the outdoors inside.
