Glitter Mason Jars - Pink and Gold Glittered Jars - Rain on a Tin Roof

How to Glitter Mason Jars

July 31, 2014 By Jenna 38 Comments

Is there anyone else out there that just feels the need to add a little bling everywhere?

A little gold here, a little glitter there?

It just makes everything a little more fun and pretty.

When I made over the porch recently, I realized that these mason jars didn’t quite fit with the fun, colorful vibe going on out there. I wanted to keep them though to use as lanterns for extra lighting at night.

My solution: Bling ‘Em Out.

Now, I have sparkly glitter mason jars.

Colorful Screened-In Porch Makeover

July 14, 2014 By Jenna 50 Comments

As I write this post, I am sitting in the most colorful space in my home.
I dare you to step into the screened-in porch and not be happy.
Double Triple Dog Dare You.

And if you do step out here, and you aren’t happy, I’ve got a cheap beer for ya and a kid is bound to turn the corner at any moment riding a plastic pink flamingo.
Heck, you just smiled as you read that last sentence, didn’t you?

Sweet friends, who put up with way too much craziness from me, welcome to my back porch.

How to Stain Wood or Lattice the Easy Way {Lattice Refresh}

March 31, 2014 By Jenna 33 Comments

Remember back in November when I made a confession?

I told you that I kinda, sorta, maybe, sometimes ignore the outside of my house.

Well, a couple weeks ago it seemed as if spring was finally arriving here (it was a trick though!). It was sunny, it was nearly 70 degrees and the kid was at preschool (thank heaven).

I certainly did not want to coop myself up in front of this computer all day. I thought it was a good time to spruce-up the porch a bit – seeing as how I have not touched it since its makeover nearly three years ago. And when I did do the makeover, I got pregnant half-way through and failed to touch the lattice on account of being tired all the time.

At least that’s the excuse I’m giving.

So, on that beautiful day a couple weeks ago, I figured out how to stain wood the easy way and gave my lattice a much needed refresh.
