Hey friends! What a busy few weeks it has been but that is totally okay because, I’m so excited to share my patriotic farmhouse collection with you! When I say that I love all things Antique Farmhouse I mean it!! So you can imagine my excitement to launch a collection with them. You all know that I love all things RED, WHITE AND BLUE, so that’s what I wanted to share in my collection with them. It’s called “LAND OF LIBERTY” and I’m in love with all the pieces.

Antique Farmhouse has such unique pieces and even better prices. I’m so excited that I can style a space you can find the exact pieces that I have used. Luckily Antique Farmhouse does the hard work and already puts pieces that work together all in one space and allow you to shop those exact spaces. They really are the best!

I decided to style my patio with this collection. With it being patriotic pieces we will see them the most at the pool since that’s where we stay in the summer! I love them all so much there is no way I could pick a favorite.

BEFORE AND AFTER

let me just show you the after first so you’ll be interested in staying here to see the process hahaha.

Y’ALL I’M OBSESSED!!!

okay.. here’s the before.

I just knew she could be beautiful. Boy was I right..

So a friend had this beauty for sale and we did a little trading and I sent my boys to pick it up for me. To be honest.. that’s the hardest part of it all. The “do you really need another hutch” questions and “where will this go” blah blah blah… boys just get it to me and let mama take care of the rest.. am I right??

The point where they probably are cussing me but do it anyways.. I’m so lucky to have them..

HERE COMES THE FUN..

Prep Work..

CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN!! Make sure you clean your piece really good before you start. I use the almond wood cleaner from target and it’s amazing and smells so yummy. https://www.target.com/p/method-cleaning-products-squirt-mop-wood-floor-cleaner-almond-25-fl-oz/-/A-13532562#lnk=sametab you can thank me later..

Next remove your hardware.. I wanted to take off the doors so I removed them and removed all the drawers and handles.

I used painters tape on the glass so it would make painting go much faster.

Supplies..

• paint..
• paint brush

that was easy..

I used this Waverly Chalk paint from Walmart. I’ve used this on so many projects and have always loved it. I used the color PLASTER. https://www.liketoknow.it/southern%20honey

Be sure to use a chalk paint brush. You can pick these up anywhere. They are a bit more then a normal brush but trust me.. you need it.

LET’S DO THIS..

Just start painting.. no sanding required.

after one coat.. don’t freak out. it will look crazy. trust the process.. it dries so fast then you can apply your second coat.

see the difference the second coat makes. usually in all my projects, I only do 2.

Don’t forget to paint your drawers.. let it dry and reattach all the hardware.

PLACE AND STYLE

this is the fun part..

Can you even believe the difference and it only took about tan hour. I’m so obsessed and couldn’t be happier with the results.

STYLED SPACE BEFORE AND AFTER

This was one of the first spaces I styled when we moved in about 8 years ago. It’s funny because I had a pinterest party and we all did a DIY craft and I made this wreath. I was so happy with this space but over the years it was defiantly time to spruce it up a bit.. This hutch was the perfect piece for the space. I also added a diy shiplap wall behind it and knocked both projects out in just half a day.. painting and all.. not bad to be putting it off for so long. Watch the process here…https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/17920157374560029/?hl=en

As always. please let me know if you have any questions and stay tuned to see what’s gonna happen with this floor that doesn’t match..

xoxo, Lisa

Indoor or Outdoor Wooden Bead Wreath

I’ll all about a super simple and affordable diy’s. Follow along and I’ll show you exactly what I did. As always for more info about me check it out here..https://thesouthernhoney.com/about-me/

Materials…

• Wooden Bead Wreath from Hobby Lobby I also always try my best to link anything I can here.. https://www.liketoknow.it/southern%20honey

When I first saw this I fell in love and knew I had to make something with it. So I thought a wreath would be perfect and I can use it throughout different seasons.

Best part.. it was half off of $9.99.. Even better!! They also make different size options. I got the middle size… only after I got the largest and it didn’t fit on my door haha.

• Ribbon also from Hobby Lobby

I wanted something simple and farmhouse style (shocker)

I love how simple this ribbon is. I love the colors and the farmhouse feel to it.

Make sure to get a ribbon that has a wired edge in order to create a beautiful bow that will stay.

It was half off of $3.99.. I told you I’m all about a bargain diy.

• Florals.. these are from Walmart that I had but you could also grab them from any craft store or the dollar tree.

I love Eucalyptus and these are $1.50 from Walmart.

I also wanted a few white flowers and these Buttercup Rose stems from Walmart were perfect and also $1.50.

• Tools to make your life easier..

Wire cutters for the flower stems, hot glue gun and scissors.

Let’s get started…

This process was so easy.. just take your wire cutters and cut off individual stems and attach them to the wreath either with the hot glue gun or string..

Display..

I told y’all that was simple.. just a few steps and you’re all done. Next you just have to decide if you wanna hand out outside or display it within your home. Either way you can’t go wrong. I’m so happy with how this turned out and it was all less than $10… that’s right TEN DOLLARS!! I have step by step directions on my instagram highlights.. follow along here and I explain in a step by step video.. https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/17890277930000198/?hl=en
