Farmhouse St. Patrick’s Day signs 5×5″ tutorial
Oh how I love the style of the farmhouse signs. They are so clean and simple. So light and fresh. They are a delightful addition to any room. You can add a splash of color or style to and decor. You can leave them simple and clean or you can spice them up with a little flare by simply accessorizing them. I feel like all the St. Patrick’s Day decorations I find are either a very minimal selection, and made of cheapy plastic or paper products that are not durable at all. Hello! I have 6 children here, and lets be honest….they are rough on stuff! I want a decoration…

DIY textured polka-dot wooden Easter egg
This textured polka-dot wooden Easter egg is on spot for Easter! You have never seen anything like it! (unless of course you’ve seen my other posts, the striped or the chevron versions) In this design, wood has been pieced together at different levels to create depth and texture for the eyes. The bright colors work so well for the Spring and Easter season and coordinate so perfectly with the other eggs. The shimmery glitter accents just finish it off so egg-cellently! Definitely a must have this Easter season! Once you have your textured wooden egg, all you really need to do is paint, sand, stain, and glitter-ize! It’s a pretty…
