When I was just a young pup - so long ago now I don't even remember when that was - Brawn and I would tune in to channel 13 and watch This Old House.
That was long before DISH, Direct TV, cable, the internet, and the plethora of home improvement shows.
Norm and Bob showed folks the tips and tricks to do DIY the right way. Their show was how I learned what dovetailing drawers was, and how tedious renovating an old house could be.
Painted Pinstripe Wall |
Pink Bucket Sink, Garage Sale Faucet |
Norm retired not too long ago, but Bob still maintains his presence in the home improvement world at BobVila.com.
Fish Tank Stone Backsplash |
At Bob Vila they have tons of home project ideas, and constant contests people can enter.
Or as is the case of my little pink play kitchen, bloggers receive an email inviting them to enter a specific project.
Leftover Fabric Torn & Tied Window Valance |
Some of you might recall from my apothecary cabinet IKEA hack, that while I do love a challenge, I'm not the type who is going to beg for votes for anything.
I'll save begging for votes for when I run for president.
Chalkboard Grocery List |
However I do like to win things, and I have no problem pointing my readers in the direction of a contest that a project of mine is in, and asking you to vote for your favorite, even if it isn't mine.
Dollar Store Apple Slicer Stove Burners |
If you'd like to see all the budget friendly ways I used to turn this garage sale nightstand into a play kitchen, you can click {here}.
A hint.... it was a very inexpensive makeover, with things like a garage sale faucet, free dials, and dollar store apple slicers that became the burners.
The nightstand turned play kitchen isn't the only cute entry, but both the pink princess and myself hope the nightstand makeover will garner your vote as a favorite.
Win or not, there will still be sandwiches to eat on hot summer days while wearing a pink tutu swimsuit.
