I really, really wanted a schoolhouse light above the kitchen sink.  Of course, I didn’t want to pay a lot either. And for some reason, schoolhouse fixtures are e.x.p.e.n.s.i.v.e.  So, I remembered seeing this DIY fixture from Gus & Lula, and the wheels started turning.

We just had a regular old can light above the sink, so I got a light adaptor kit from Home Decorators with a coupon, so around $30.

Our kitchen has a nifty little shelf above the kitchen windows. The previous owners had some stencil action going on up there, but we were ready for something different.

We had a little beadboard wallpaper left from this project and this project. Man, have we gotten our mileage from that roll!

Do you make cute cupcakes? You probably do.

I never have…mine usually consist of a cake mix, store bought frosting and some sprinkles~like this.
