Almost any wood table can be turned into a farm style table. It’s really not that hard to do your own makeover. Recently my sweet friend Carol gave me an old table she had stored in her garage. As I drove home I thought this table could be so cute all dressed up like a farm table. So I set out to take it one step further. Using it to prove a point that any table can be a farm...

I’m in organizing mode around my house. Guess you could say spring cleaning has started really early at the Mccranch. Oh that name Mccranch was given to our property by one of our neighbors out in Lucas 20 years ago. We carried the name to this house because we loved it. I’m going room by room closet by closet and getting rid of things. What I’m keeping is getting organized, labeled and put away neatly. If we haven’t used it in...

What about all those books that you haven’t even looked at in years. Well, they are all gone and I got a...

We all walk into our day with lots of junk in our head and heart. Most days I’m pretty even kill with not much on my mind but what is at hand for the day. I said this year I was going to live life as if it were the last year of my life. Live as if there is an expiration date of December 31st 2018. I’ve put a few things into action and things are moving forward. I’ve...

Don’t get me wrong I love what Blue Happy has brought to our lives. Never the less we are so busy that every moment of our week, weekend and month are planned out. I do some kind of redo almost every day. If I’m not sanding, painting or repairing I’m out picking and trash trolling. Not to mention I’m still a teacher, grandmother, mother and wife. Ever so often I wake up and think I wanna do something fun today....

Meet LaTonya

I am a creative with a vintage soul and a happy heart. Just as I set out with a new purpose to restore my life 5 years ago, I try to find the beauty in beaten up and forgotten pieces for the home.
