8x8 Farmhouse Inspired DIY Home Decor (DT Project for Reneabouquets)

Today, I am bringing you a DIY home décor project, farmhouse inspired, using an 8x8 wood piece as my base. This wood piece is actually an insert for a shadow box frame put out by 7Gypsies. I have a few of these in my stash, as I love the texture it has with the circles. It's just a fun way to display all the farmhouse inspired elements.
I added quite a bit of layering with Reneabouquets product including the exceptional Beautiful Board and Printed Beautiful Board (laser cut chipboard product) and turned my vision into a farmhouse filled scene representing love and happiness. I also added in layered elements of flowers and embellishments that contribute to this statement of a beautiful life together.
I hope you enjoy this! Below the pictures are the links to the Reneabouquets product I used on this project, plus a link to the start to finish process of this project from my You Tube channel! Also, I will have information for a Reneabouquets coupon that may be applied to your April order (since there is one day, today, of April left) and a coupon code for May. Only one coupon used per order please. Thanks for stopping by!

Farmhouse Inspired DIY 6x6 Canvas

Today, I am bringing you a DIY home décor project, farmhouse inspired, using a 6x6 Canvas. I thought it would be fun to flip the canvas to its back side and use that as a frame to house all the yummy farmhouse inspired elements.
I added quite a bit of layering with Reneabouquets product including her exquisite Beautiful Board (laser cut chipboard product) and turned it into a farmhouse filled scene capturing a happy piece of time representing life, home, family...and also added in layered elements of flowers and embellishments that contribute to this picturesque moment. If you look close, I also added a cute water faucet element in the top right corner...representing the thought of keeping your beautiful life nourished with love... just like when we water flowers! There is even the water faucet knob in the lower right hand corner! Don't worry, I didn't steal the knob from my house! LOL! This is an embellishment piece from my stash that I found at Hobby Lobby.
I hope you enjoy this! Below the pictures are the links to the Reneabouquets product I used on this project, plus a link to the start to finish process of this project from my You Tube channel!

Country Christmas Wood Slice Home Decor (DT Project for Reneabouquets)

I've been wanting to create a project on a wood slice for awhile, and since I have been working on Country and Rustic style projects for upcoming Christmas Craft Bazaars, it was an easy transition to design a personalized home décor piece! I love altering items and adding a personal photo, especially for holiday décor, because once the holidays are over, all those items get packed away until you bring them out again the next year. It's a special moment when you unwrap a piece and see a memory staring up at you...allowing you to take a step back into time, enjoy the photo, and also the specialized décor you created for the season. It's very fulfilling.
It was very easy to decorate this wood slice (that I purchased at Walmart...it was the lowest price I've seen without a coupon) with beautiful product from Reneabouquets! I was able to use some Beautiful Board and Printed Beautiful Board Christmas products, some exquisite laces, mulberry flowers and handcrafted (by Renea) Tiny Treasures Butterflies. I will have all the links down below to the product I used on this project as well as a start to finish You Tube video of the entire design process! I will also include coupon codes that can be used at Reneabouquets.com only. But first, here are some photos! Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!!

Country Christmas Garland (DT Project for Reneabouquets)

I have been in the thick of getting ready for Christmas Craft Bazaar season and have been making Christmas Garlands with a country/rustic theme. When I received some new Christmas pieces in my design team kit, including the new Beautiful Board Explosion/Ornament/Gift box....I thought it would make a sweet addition to the center of a Garland! By adding a few more Beautiful Board pieces such as S/6 Winter Snowflakes and some Printed Beautiful Board Die Cuts such as Christmas Carol, this garland all came together rather perfectly!!! I will have links below to the Reneabouquets products I used on this project as well as a start to finish You Tube video on how I put this garland together!! Thanks for stopping by!!

Country Rustic Wood Shadowbox Tray (DT Project for Renebouquets)

Coming into the autumn season of giving thanks and being reminded of all things hoped for, I wanted to create a home décor piece that is an artful reminder of the blessings bestowed upon us each and every day. I had a wooden tray that I purchased a year or so ago, awaiting inspiration. I actually removed the handles from the top side and flipped the wood piece over to use the underneath side, which created a wonderful 'shadowbox' type tray! I also reattached the handles... I wasn't tossing those out! This project wasn't complete without using some beautiful product from Reneabouquets! Below the pictures, you will find a link to the start-to-finish You Tube video of this project as well as links from all the pieces I used on this project from Reneabouquets. Enjoy!

S/2 Farmhouse Country Style Fabric Pumpkins (DT Project for Reneabouquets)

Sooooo.....I was scrolling around on Pinterest, looking for inspiration for fabric pumpkins, and came across some cute Farmhouse style ones! I loved that they were a rectangle shape vs the usual round shape, because it gave them a cute, quirky, Farmhouse feel! I grabbed my pencil, a few sheets of paper, and drew two pumpkin shapes (I wanted a matching set), freehand. I had some country looking fabric out (because I am in the midst of preparing for some Christmas Bazaars) and used that fabric for these pumpkins! Perfect colors in the shades of reds, greens, and browns! I pulled out some laces, flowers, Beautiful Board pieces and trinkets from Reneabouquets...and my set of pumpkins are done! I normally tend to load up my projects with lots of embellishments, but I felt that this Farmhouse/Country style lent itself well to a more minimal look! I will have the links to down below to the product I used from Reneabouquets as well as a start to finish You Tube video of this project!
I will also have a coupon code to use at Reneabouquets.com for the month of October! Enjoy!

Shabby Chic Altered Mini Sailboat (DT Project for Reneabouquets)

I have been inspired by a sweet artist friend of mine to alter a mini sailboat. She has altred a couple of them for design teams and I thought that if I ever found a mini sailboat, I wanted to alter one myself. Now, that being said....Nope. Don't sail! LOL. I just picture sailing this calm, serene, relaxing activity and wanted to do a little art capturing that thought process! I will have the links below the pcitures to all the products I have used from Reneabouquets.com. I will also have the link to my start to finish process of this project from my You Tube channel. I'm also including the coupon code for month of October for Reneabouquets.com site! Enjoy!
