Custom Nursery Closet Dividers with the Silhouette Cameo

Custom Nursery Closet Dividers with the Silhouette Cameo

If you've followed me for long, you know that last Christmas I went Cameo crazy.  With this baby coming in less than 3 months, my nesting and decorating urges have definitely hit a new high!  I'm so excited to be able to use my Cameo to decorate and organize this baby's nursery!  As we started to accumulate baby clothes, I hated them all just hanging in the closet together.  I knew I wanted some sort of dividers like they have at retail stores, but the plain jane ones are just boring.  I found…Read more …

DIY Sliding Barn Door Makeover for Under $100!

Hey y'all!  When we decided to renovate our home, we wanted to give it little touches that make it more "us".  One of the style decisions we made to make the house a home was the addition of a sliding barn door on the laundry room.  The laundry room is located directly off the dining room, so it's a high traffic area.  When we purchased the house, there was a doorway between the two rooms but no door, so the laundry room was always open.  The door will probably stay open most of…Read more …

DIY Wood Projects with the PVPP Method

DIY Wood Projects with the PVPP Method

Earlier this week I posted about all of the Christmas projects I did this year.  Lots of my crafty friends visited that post so I thought I'd share one of my favorite crafting skills, the PVPP method {shoutout to my Cameo fb group ladies!}. The PVPP method is my preferred craft with the Silhouette Cameo.  Applying vinyl is great and all.... I don't have a heat press so I don't do HTV... but PVPP?  Bring it on!  If you're new to the Cameo world, this may all sound like a foreign language to…Read more …
