Every Friday, 7 PM through Wednesday 11 PM Pacific
Happy weekend all the way from beautiful Niagara On The Lake, Ontario!
(My apologies for the post going up late… the auto scheduler didn’t work. Again.)
Oh my goodness. What a whirlwind past week. Things first fired up at an incredible conference hosted by Fusion Mineral Paint, which has now led to visiting neighbouring areas to take it all in before I head home. I don’t generally take the time to tour around my own country as much as I really ought to so I’m grateful for this experience to do so!
Time is zooming past fast, so I haven’t taken the time to blog about anything yet. If you’d like to catch up, please visit my Instagram under the story buttons for a glimpse. I promise to share some great transpirings on the blog once home.
So as I enjoy my morning coffee while I wake up in a quaint little cottage surrounded in full-out falling leaves (this area is exquisite!), let’s have a look at some amazing features from last weekend’s party…
Stenciled raised crate planter on stool legs by Organized Clutter
Carlene had me at crate! However with the addition of stool legs, this raised planter idea is a perfect way to add height in a space that doesn’t otherwise offer a table of sorts! If you visit the post, you’ll see how these stencils perfectly chime in with original crate stamps!
Buffalo Checked metal card file side table by Organized Clutter
And if you come across a metal card file, here’s how to turn it into a charming side table. Click through this post to see it all decked out for Christmas.
Candy corn Halloween or fall thread decor by Sadie Seasongoods
Oh hello there candy corn thread… not something you see everyday in a store! I love how original this one is.
Car jack horse weathervane by Scavenger Chic
Got a car jack handy? According to this amazing project, that’s a great start in creating a one-of-a-kind weathervane. LOVE the horse shape! Click through to see how it was created.
Pallet wood shadow box frame by Scavenger Chic
This build creates the perfect showcase for treasured items. Adore how simple baby shoes take centre stage. Gorgeous!

And yeah… what in the world?! You’ve got to click through to see the genius behind this one!

I’ve been watching your trip on Instagram stories and really enjoying them. You seemed to have a fabulous time with Fusion.
I’m glad you are enjoying your conference and getaway! Thanks for featuring my two projects at the party!
Glad to hear you’re having a good time in one of my favorite annual stomping grounds. I’ve never been in the height of Fall but can only imagine how beautiful it must be right now. Have a great weekend 🙂
A cottage surrounded by colorful Fall leaves sounds wonderful. We are just now getting some cooler temps in the 50’s and just a hint of color in the leaves. Thank you for hosting the party. Enjoy your weekend.
Hope you’re having a wonderfully inspiring getaway, Donna! What a fun opportunity. Enjoy the fall beauty, too! Thanks for hosting, even though you’re on the road;)
Thanks for featuring my fun projects. As always, I love your party.
