I wanted cute red & white gingham cloth napkins. One dollar, a small tablecloth and a few minutes at my sewing machine was all it took.

We wanted to make a rustic, old-wood solar light feature. We used old, aged Bois D’Arc wood and old barbed wire. A metal elephant embellishment and decorative solar light on top finished this light feature piece. Perfect!

I repurposed an empty coffee can to make a cute flour canister to store bulk flour. And a reusable chalkboard label makes it look nice in my kitchen too. I love the way it turned out – score another one for zero-waste repurposing!

It’s all the rage to decorate farm style or country chic. I love the simplicity of using canning jars for flower vases.
One day RancherMan & I enjoyed a little exploring time in an area on our property where previous homesteaders took their ‘trash’ decades ago. There were several unbroken old canning jars, no longer fit for canning obviously.
I love to catch a little glimpse into the past when I see what those homesteaders long ago discarded. Especially when I can repurpose those things into something I love for our home.
