    Throwback Thursday :: 5, 10 and 15 Minute Changes

    May 29, 2014 by Ashley Mayes 4 Comments

    While being in the midst of larger renovations (bathroom and kitchen), I get a bit down on the lack of progress elsewhere. It takes forever and a day to get walls sanded, prepped, primed and painted when you have old walls. So, I've been thinking about ways that I can refresh spaces that aren't expensive or time-consuming. I thought I'd share a few projects that I've done in the past that perfectly represent that thinking.

    five minute change take a placemat and make a pillow

    via

    ten minute change make a string plant hanger

    via 

    fifteen minute change wrapping paper lined drawers

     via 

    Little projects like these are always pretty rewarding. Who doesn't like projects that look great, cost next to nothing and are done and cleaned up during nap time? Ha. Hope you guys have a great weekend. We are going to try to finish a few things up in the kitchen (I should have a post for you guys next week), but other than that... we are focusing on family time.

      I love these little ideas. I always try to do smaller projects in between the big ones, me and my family need the break between. I love the tray, adorable!
