When we left off in Part 1, I completed and installed the bench frame and added batting to the front edge of the frame. I gave you a sneak peek at the foam on the bench. So, let’s pick up there.
First let’s talk money. The wood for [...]
I am at it again, making DIY pendant lights. I don’t think good lighting should be so expensive. Lighting is one of those key elements to a great design and typically comes along with a price tag to match. To defy paying outrageous prices, I set out to make my own modern pendant light. And, [...]
So, a sweet reader asked last week if I was still planning to share DIY projects. The answer was a big fat, “Yes!” The thing is, last week I had a lot going on. Not only did I launch Teal & Lime Interiors and Teal & Lime Market, but I [...]
I was not kidding last week when I said I made a dozen pillow covers in under an hour. This is what my pile of pillows looked like when I finished sewing, serging, and stuffing.
After tossing them all in a big heap, I stacked them neatly while I finish some [...]
Oooh…do I have a treat for you today. I have finally made a video tutorial for my easy envelope pillow covers!
I have done two posts on my easy envelope pillow covers (here and here). They are two of my all time most popular [...]
Making pillows is one of my all-time favorite DIY projects. You can save a lot of money by making your own pillow covers. Earlier this week I shared my source for inexpensive feather pillow inserts. Tomorrow I will be sharing a
I am peeing-my-pants-excited to share this dresser makeover with you. It has been a long time in the works. Sadly, finishing it kept getting de-prioritized in favor of other projects for my studio. Now it is finally done and it is awesome!
This dresser was sort of bonus. We bought a [...]
I can’t believe I have not made one of these until now. My new little fabric and paint swatch books lets me hold my house in my hands. When I am out shopping, I have all my swatches with me.
I was itching for something new to put on the mantel, but not interested in buying something. I feel like I am doing a lot of spending for the basement now, so I am not spending for other areas of the home. I still wanted something new. So I made something…easy and cheap.
I have a gorgeous before & after from one of my clients to share with you today. Cortney has done an amazing job so far bringing a custom mood board to life in her living room. This post will be heavy on the testimonial too, because Cortney had such sweet things to say and I [...]
As promised from the Wild Lounge Before & After reveal, here is the tutorial for DIY marquee lights. I have never invited anyone else to provide content on Teal & Lime, but Lindsey did such a fabulous job with the write-up and pictures of her [...]
Welcome back to one of my favorite new series on Teal & Lime. I find inspiration in all kinds of places, but I am mostly inspired by interiors, both residential and commercial. I wanted a more formal way to share some of the things I find inspiring. Today’s post isn’t a typical Be Inspired post [...]
Thank you all for the amazing comments on last week’s mini video tour of my studio. I had a lot of fun making the video…oh you wouldn’t believe the outtakes. I will have to save them all up for a blooper reel. With your wonderful support I definitely [...]
It finally feels like the furniture plan for our living room is complete. It has been a long journey with lots of changes, but we made it. The room is fully furnished. We can comfortably seat lots of adults for entertaining. The finishing touch was definitely the Boden Wing [...]
I have pined after raw wood cutting boards with dipped handles. First I saw these colorblocked cutting boards at Anthropologie. Then these raw wood boards in all sizes caught my eye at West Elm. They are not the kind of cutting boards you tuck away. These are the kind you [...]
