who couldn’t use an extra $100 to buy something cool for their house?!
All it took was one packet of Dollar Store burner covers in a lovely apple motif and 2 brass candlesticks pulled out of the closet where brass candlesticks go to die.
First up we have Michelle from Michelle Paige who created this incredible Restoration Hardware Driftwood Mirror knock-off. We think this is absolutely gorgeous in all of it’s rusticness and Michelle even got her kids involved in this one!
Ok…so even though we are still in Summer mode, we couldn’t resist this next feature from the Beachcomber. Check out this absolutely darling Driftwood Christmas tree!
Michelle from My Life as a Mrs. was determined to give her basic IKEA bookcase a little extra panache and we think she definitely succeeded with this makeover!
The gallery wall up above completes this fantastic transformation!
Patricia Ann shared with us how she transformed a table and chair set they have had for many years and gave it a whole new lease on life. Check out those gorgeous Frenchy slipcovers on the chairs!

In fact, in Canada there are several kinds of mortgages with
different advantages and isadvantages so take some time to appreciate mortgage loans in Canada so you can select the best one that easily
fullfill your requirements. The origination fee is the primary source of income for the lender on a reverse mortgage.
A homeowner who wants to cash out to pay down other debts and is looking at a 95% or higher
loan to value mortgage after the new loan is complete is considering a
risky path.
