Shiplapped Faux Fireplace
Oops! We did it again!! When we built our first fireplace in our Florida house, my mom let us know she wanted one as well. So we put together a plan and over the last weekend we built our second fireplace. It took two days of building to complete the fireplace. Prior to building, we spent 2 days replacing the flooring in the family room and the kitchen. This flooring is from Lowes you can find them HERE. It looks awesome, and she loves it! I can’t wait to see this all throughout the house. Once we had the flooring done, we moved on to the fireplace! The fireplace is…

Thanksgiving Turkey
The grand day is coming soon, a day of thanks and giving! Here is the easiest way to prepare your Thanksgiving turkey that will produce a moist and tender bird, every time! The key is, Don’t lift the lid! What you’ll need: Butter, salt, pepper, any other seasoning you prefer, water, electric roasting pan. Four days before the holiday (Sunday before Thanksgiving) put your frozen turkey into the fridge so it can defrost over several days. I always put my turkey on a towel to catch any water from the melting process. The day of cooking, get that bird out of the fridge about 2 hours before time to cook.…

CONCRETE PUMPKIN DIY
I know its past Halloween, but I still have to share this fun little plastic pumpkin DIY. We made these little cuties in our garage and our grandson was here visiting for the week so he helped me out! I hope you enjoy this project! You start with a plastic, blow mold pumpkin bucket. You want the one that is shaped like a pumpkin. You prepare it by cutting slits down both sides and the back and duck taping it together. I only made one slit in the back and that was difficult when I removed the mold. Make it easier for yourself and make 3. Don’t make a cut…
