Repurposed Frame to House Numbers

Posted on November 10, 2015 by Roeshel

I’m sharing a quick weekend project that’s going to help guests and delivery drivers to locate the front door as well as add a little interest to curb appeal.

What I used:

RustOleum Universal spray paint
house numbers
picture frame with wood backing
scrap wood plank
clear lacquer

What I did:

1. Remove glass from picture frame. Dispose/recycle glass.

2. Apply light even coats of spray paint to frame and house numbers. Let dry.

3. Apply light even coats of spray paint to wood backing. Let dry.

4. Replace backing to picture frame.

5. Attach house numbers to center of frame with screws, use scrap wood plank behind backing to anchor house numbers to frame backing.

6. Apply a clear coat of lacquer for sealing and let dry.

7. Hang and display.

Enjoy!

DIY Essential Oil Infused Fall Room Spray

Posted on September 22, 2015 by Roeshel

Last week I hosted a fun fall celebration for family and friends in my home and wanted to share a few ideas and recipes (great ideas for a fall essential oils 101 Make & take class). I used one of my own fall decor images to create an invitation for make up a Facebook invitation/event.

Make & Take: a Make & Take is a term used for hosting an essential oils class where guests have the opportunity to make up an essential oil infused gift to take home with them, to sample the benefits of essential oils. My guests made up a fall room spray.

Essential Oil Infused Room Spray

You’ll need:

2 oz. spray bottles (I love THESE (affiliate link) – glass, fine mist and a lock, great price too)
Essential Oils (choose oils like Light the Fire essential oil or mix and match essential oils like cinnamon, clove, ginger, nutmeg)
epsom salt (helps keep the blend of oil and water mixed)
distilled water
labels/stickers/ribbon

Directions:

Fill spray bottle with distilled water (fill to about 1/2 to 1 inch below the top). Add 5-7 drops of essential oil and a pinch of epsom salt. Embellish spray bottle with a label, fall sticker and ribbon, if desired. Easy!

Light the Fire essential oil

As an extra little something/thank you gift/party favor…we made up these cute easy DIY monogrammed mini pumpkins.

I created a ‘pumpkin patch’ for guests to pick a pumpkin to monogram with metallic stickers.
