I can't be the only one with Fannie Farmer daydreams of Sunday mornings spent in a garden that's been around for ages. Problem is, I don't have an old garden (or a new one, for that matter). If you're also looking to fulfill green thumb fantasies, here's how to get the vintage garden look, with splurge and steal budgets.

I could grow up here. It's low key and comfortable, without a lot of pomp and circumstance. The color palette is cool and collected, with enough texture to keep it interesting. The design above costs just over $2000.

Sometimes musical play indoors can seem a little wild, especially when you have multiple toddlers in the mix. But now that Spring is here, and outside is a little warmer, why not grab the boombox, your favorite kids CD or two, and take your mini maestros outside with one of these simple DIY instruments?

They say "with age comes wisdom", and if there's one nugget of knowledge I've kept from my years at university, it's that delivery pizza is the best deal on the planet.

Vintage collectors and bargain hunters rejoice! The arrival of Spring also means the beginning of flea market season. In anticipation of this exciting event, I've rounded up a list of some of the country's best flea markets. 

So, what do you do when you want to give your kitchen an update but you live in a rental?  Why, get out the paint can, of course!  That's what I did when I decided to renovate my own space.  Get out the paint brush and try these tips in your kitchen.  

When Jan at design blog Poppytalk realized her DOCKSTA table from IKEA was in need of a makeover, she came up with this surprisingly simple hack to cover up the stains, scuffs and dings on the surface of the table. Can you guess what she did?

Wattle fencing originated in England and was traditionally woven with willow or hazel branches. However, it can incorporate a variety of twigs, reeds, or branches you find outdoors (namely oak, elder, hornbeam and ash). 

I am a firm believer that cleaning tools do not need to be expensive or ugly, so I was excited when I found this simple duster tutorial over at 3191 Miles Apart. Made from wool scraps, which naturally attract and hold dust, it can be thrown into the washer once it gets dirty.
