DIY Home Decor Items

Today I want to show you some projects I have shown you before that have been updated or that have inspired similar custom orders!

 

Last year we gave my mother-in-law this Potting Bench from Old Pallets.  You can view the tutorial here.  I wanted to paint it but my mother-in-law loves to paint her furniture.  So I figured I would just let her pick what color she wanted it, and let her paint it if she wanted to.

 

She painted it red, and added so hooks for her gardening tools!  Don't you LOVE it?!!  I do!

  

 

I showed you this Barnwood LOVE sign I made. 

  

After I posted the tutorial I decided to add flowers and some jute to it!

 

After posting the LOVE sign in my Items For Sale or Custom Order ablum on Facebook I got a custom order for one that said EAT.

 

I made this monogram sign as a bridal shower gift for my cousin.  You can view the tutorial here.

 

A friend of mine asked me to make one for her friend as a bridal shower gift also.

 

I have already shown you this Chevron Monogram which was inspired by the above monogram and one of my Chevron Signs.

 

After posting the Chevron Monogram in my Items For Sale or Custom Order ablum on Facebook.  A customer asked me to make this one for her!

  

Another customer browsing through my Items For Sale or Custom Order ablum on Facebook,  ask me to make this for her.

 

Inspired by the Barnwood LOVE sign and the first monogram I made.

I showed you my picture blocks awhile ago.  Here are some I made for a custom order!

 

 Here are some Menu Boards I made for custom orders. View my tutorial here!

  

The first pallet clock I made I cut my numbers too big.  So I couldn't do numbers all the way around. 

View my tutorial.

 

 I have since made more and put smaller numbers all the way around.

 

One customer asked me to make this sign for her.

 

I also enjoy making things inpired by other's projects, not just my own.

After seeing this sign on Pinterest.

I made this one.

 

Another customer sent me this picture, and asked me to recreate it for her.

View the original tutorial here.

Here is what I made for her.

 

What can I make for you!?  Look through my Items For Sale or Custom Order ablum on Facebook.  I can recreate any of them for you or make it with your own twist on it.  Or send me a picture of something you have seen on pinterest or around the web.  I would love to make something just for you!

Ioka Lane Boutique!

This is not just another Feature Friday.  Ioka Lane is my sister-in-law's boutique.

Please go check it out!

She is really the reason I started building custom crafts; which led to blogging.  I have always liked to make things.  One day I was talking about how awesome Kortnie is and all of the things she does.  My wonderful husband encouraged me, and told me I could make a succesful business too.

I look up to this girl so much, and someday I hope to be as awesome as she is!  It has been so fun to have someone to brainstorm ideas with, and someone who I can ask to be brutally honest about a project and she will be! 
I love this girl! Get to know her!

Kortnie is very talented at sewing!  Here are just a few of the cute things she has sewn.

She has also started refinishing furniture.  And of course, like everything else, she is GREAT at it!

This sunburst mirror was the item everyone was talking about at the boutique we just did together!  Isn't it GORGEOUS?!
