Distressed Vintage Style Bread Box

Distressed Vintage Style Bread Box | Denise on a Whim
Oh my goodness, have I been busy!
I've been preparing for an upcoming show and, let's just say, it's resulted in a frenzied attempt to make as much as possible! I'm sure everyone out there who does craft shows can relate!
But today I'm returning to finally show you another one of my kitchen updates. This thrift store bread box got a quick update with paint and lettering and it so fun in my kitchen!

Coffee Station Sign and Mug Crate | Denise on a Whim
When I redecorated my kitchen, I moved my coffee station to a different area and added a thing or two , like the painted crate, a vintage sugar dish and a cute new sign.

Mason Jar Kitchen Canisters

I love Mason jars just as much as the next vintage-loving girl.
And, of course, I have a small collection of them at home.
I finally decided to give them a permanent home in my kitchen as canisters.

Vintage & Repurposed Kitchen Soap Station | Denise on a Whim
I'm finally ready to share my kitchen decor updates with you!
Woot Woot!
It's been a lengthy process, mainly because I've been doing it piecemeal and finding most things at the thrift store.
But I'm ready to show off some of my new decor!
Today I'm sharing my new soap station!

Getting close to showing them to all off to you, too!

The above is a little sneak peak of some of the things you'll see in there.

Sick of looking at the stack of berry containers

Vintage and Thrifted Plant Containers

Thrifted Basket Spring Planter | Denise on a Whim
I recently decided to go a little greener in my house.
I added a few plants, both real and fake, here and there.
The little basket above is one spot.
A few pots from the dollar store and a wooden basket
makes a nice little springtime display.

Why Limit Happy?

Why Limit Happy Rustic Sign | Denise on a Whim
It's Friday! And I, for one, couldn't be happier.
Not just because it's Friday.
There's lots of other reasons, too!

Thrift Store Vase Makeover and DIY Flowering Twigs

Thrift Store Vase Makeover and DIY Twig Flowers | Denise on a Whim
It's easy to turn something old and unwanted into something beautiful again.
In this case, all it took was a little paint and a little stain
to transform a discarded wooden thrift store vase
into a lovely piece of decor for my living room.

I don't typically paint furniture white.
But I think this bedroom pair I recently made-over
has got me headed in a new direction!

Vintage Farmhouse Bathroom Makeover on a Small Budget | Denise on a Whim
I'm finally finished with what I'm calling my

It all started with a shower curtain...

Cloche Enough

Thrift Store Glass Dome Cloche with Natural Wood Base | Denise on a Whim
I'll admit it.
I have a thing for cloches.
Up until now, it's always been an admire-from-afar kind of thing.
But, thanks to a lucky trip to the thrift store,
I now have my very own cloche!

Window Framed Rustic Cabinet

Window Framed Rustic Cabinet | Denise on a Whim
The cabinet I'm sharing with you today
is something I am very proud of!
Not only because it's made from an old window
(and don't we all love those!)
but because I built it and it turned out pretty lovely,
despite my lack of carpentry skills!

Tenacity and Getting My House in Order

Tenacity and Getting My House in Order | Denise on a Whim
I know a lot of bloggers posted their favorites or most popular posts from 2015.
As usual, I got pretty busy making custom orders for Christmas,
even right up to the last minute,
and then I took a break to spend time with my littles while they were off from school.
Needless to say, I didn't put together any best of posts for last year.
Instead, I'm going to just look forward to this new year.
I've got a ton of plans floating around in my head for getting my own house in order.
I've begun gathering a few things to put them into motion.
