Thrilled as I am to have College Boy home, I wish he’d come back without bringing whatever was going around his dorm with him. He managed to avoid it , but all roads lead to mom. So, my creative endeavors this week have consisted of choosing between the green and blue cold medicines and looking at the pretty colors on the tea box. Enough of my whining.
This week, I’d like to introduce you to BFF Andrea from
Decorating Cents where you might guess, she blogs about decorating on a budget. You’d never guess “budget” from seeing the end results. You may remember her starburst mirror from last week’s party:
She made this from paint stirrers from Home Depot! And she did the wall behind it.
Want to be really impressed? Check out Andrea’s made over kitchen complete with
painted cabinets!
If you’re up for a big challenge like this, Andrea’s got a great tutorial

If you’d like to try a little less daunting idea, you can see how Andrea made these great

Oh and that backsplash? Yup. She and her husband did that too. I hope you’ll pop over to
Decorating Cents and pay Andrea a visit. When she’s not busy doing incredible projects like the ones above, she’s busy being a wife and mom.
So what’s everyone been up to this week? You know the rules:
