DIY Printer Table
Hello and happy Monday! I’m back with a new DIY furniture project to share with you all!

This was my dad’s current printer table situation: Um. Yeeeeeeah….
How To Build DIY Nightstands
Okay, you guys. I actually built something without having to pester my good friend, Ana White for plans! Can you believe it?

Build a Bed with a Friend
It’s contagious, y’all. The building bug, I mean. Once you see just how easy, affordable, and gratifying it is to build your own furniture, you. just. won’t. stop. Take for instance, my new neighbor, Kristle. When I learned she enjoys refinishing furniture as a hobby, I knew we’d get along like two peas in a pod….
Building Evie’s Play Table
Hello and happy Friday the 13th everyone! I’m super excited to share my latest nesting project with you… I’m in love with this children’s play table from Pottery Barn Kids, but the large one can easily set you back $450 and the small one anywhere from $250-$200 (and that’s without chairs)!
