"I love my essential oils and use them every day. This DIY Facial Serum really does work. I have been using it for about 3 months months now and it has helped heal my skin. My fine lines look smoother and some are gone! You only need a few drops at a time and a bottle of this mixture will last. Love this, thank you for sharing this facial serum recipe."

"I have always wanted to put a door organizer in my kitchen but I do not like the plastic ones. This wood version is a great one and I like that you can make it to size you want and paint too. This can even be used under bathroom sinks or craft room. Super easy to make too."

"Do you hate to throw out those old fans that do not work and need some storage baskets in a craft room or garage then here is a very inexpensive one. I would paint it and you can even use an odd hanger from a planter. You can do 1,2,3 or whatever amount of baskets you need. Neat idea."

"This outdoor bench to put on the deck is a great alternitive then the store bought pieces. I have wanted somrthing like this because it uses the space wisley and everyone can sit together, You can make it all around the deck or just a little and you can control that. I love that it slants on the top. I would make some pretty cushions and pillows to put on the bench too."

From the blogger: "Add some personality and detail to your kitchen island cabinets by adding trim or paneling to it. A simple weekend project that will make your home look so much more expensive and custom looking. I always liked the beadboard look, and then debated a board and batten style of trim. I ended up going with a vertical plank, which is now commonly known as shiplap. Not only does it look beautiful, it is durable, holding up to the wear and tear of four wild boys."

The house we recently bought had been beautifully renovated by the previous owners, all except the kitchen! The cabinet doors are similar to the ones in the before photos and we have quite an ugly island tiled in what looks like grey brick. Ugh! Ive never heard of Shiplap before but it is going to look so good on our island AND weve decided to take this very clever designers advice and replace the cabinet doors but not the cabinets. So our kitchen reno is going to be a lot less costly than redoing the entire kitchen.YAY!
