WyHoming Decor

When we designed our home I knew I wanted big, open and vaulted ceilings. I love the open concept idea... so that's what we did. When this wall was being framed I remember looking at it and thinking how am I ever going to decorate it and make it look cute and of course it wasn't an option to leave it bare. When we were building, the pallet walls were "the thing." I remember thinking how perfect it would look up there... plus I had to keep my word to my husband about the saw blades being in our home one day, umm what better spot to put them??                                                    This is what it looked like when I was having all these thoughts..... This is what it would look like if I left it bare.... Umm no, it's like naked! Starting the pallet wall My vision was coming to life. I was so stinking excited. I seriously never slept the whole time we built our house because I was too stinking excited to be doing everything I had ever drea

I have chalk painted anything from old dressers, stepstools, old hutches, kitchen tables and my two year old kitchen cabinets. Chalk paint is the best thing ever invented. My friend Chelsey first introduced me too it and I have been in love since. The recipe I use is 2 cups of latex paint, 5 tbs of Plaster Paris, 3tbsp of water.(Don't go buy the expensive chalk paint, this recipe works every bit as good and is lots cheaper) After years of using this I've learned you should combine Plaster of Paris and water first and use a wire whisk to mix them together and get all the clumps out and then add to latex paint and stir well. If you don't do this you will end up with clumps in your paint. The best part about this paint is you don't have to sand first.. That's honestly what sold me on the chalk paint. I wouldn't refinish near as many things if I had to sand first.... I hate sanding!!!  I absolutely love white kitchen cabinets and I kick myself every day that
