Since we’ve been thinking a lot about budget bathroom makeovers, I couldn’t help but share this awesome inspiration!  Bower Power redid their office bathroom with a $500 gift certificate to Lowes!  The budget might have been small, especially for a bathroom reno, but the results are huge!  They have converted the dark dim space into a light, bright, and relaxing oasis with little bit of money and a lot of elbow grease.  See below for a few of the before and after pics.

Malibu Chandelier Tutorial

Natural Bliss Beaded Chandelier

Have you been eying Serena & Lily’s Malibu Chandelier for your home? It is such a natural, simple colored piece.

DIY Valentine's Mantle

DIY Valentine's Mantle

I’m excited to have my very first Mantel Display to share with you. Yes, I have a fireplace in my home, but Mr. Salvage won out having it as the resting place for his flat screen TV, so this bar buffet cart in my dining room will have to do for my decor mantle for now :) Almost all of the decorations were DIY, and over the last week or so I’ve shown you the tutorials for them. Here’s the pulled together look, just in time for February and Valentine’s Day :)

DIY Valentine's Mantle

I was inspired to make these pipe cleaner balls after I found this clear teardrop pattern glass at a thrift store last week for $2. I loved the scallops on it, and thought the curves would be perfect for my Valentine’s Mantle. And…we can make these little cuties ourselves for any color of the season.
