That one time my house got painted the wrong color

Instead of the usual intro paragraph, I'm just going to direct you to watch this video - In case you can't watch the video or hate videos or whatever, here is what happened. I wanted a teal house and picked the color Sophisticated Teal by Behr for the exterior. I also chose the color Tricorn Black from Sherwin Williams for the trim color. Just the eaves and soffits, that's it. The window trim was supposed to be teal, same as the walls. So like, pretty much an entirely teal house. The …

how to decorate a mantle for Christmas

Christmas Bedroom Tour

Merry Christmas Eve! So I'm a few hours away from hosting our family Christmas, and while scrubbing all the things I usually don't scrub I realized I never posted about my Christmas bedroom decor. Fail, Ashley....fail. Anyway, let's get right to it, because this Christmas enchilada soup isn't going to make itself. So if you have been around for a while then you have probably noticed I have never been into seasonal decorating. You would think I would love it, since....you know....I've been …

Vertical Christmas Banner

Remember the good old days of Domestic Imperfection where I would do a mediocre craft project and post about it, crappy pictures and all? I miss that. So today we're going to get nostalgic and show you a super quick, super easy Christmas project, posted way too late in the season, using dark shadowy phone pictures. Get excited!  So here is what we are making today -  This project was actually 100% my husband’s idea. I told him I wanted to really decorate the bedroom for Christmas …

Crafts of Christmas from Domestic Imperfection

December 4, 2016

Crafts of Christmas Past

Well, December is here and Christmas prep is in full swing...sorta. As usual I’m a little behind, but this year I am totally okay with that. I have my tree up (but not decorated) and I may go crazy on the mantel...I’ve never had a fireplace or a mantel before this year and it’s begging for the full Christmas treatment. So while I don’t foresee myself creating and blogging about and Christmas crafts this year (because, four kids) I have done a few in the past that I’m sure a lot of y’all have …

Christmas Wreath Chandelier

Hard to believe there are only a few days left until Christmas! Are y'all ready? I'm almost ready... I have a few more gifts to buy and that's about it. Our Christmas is very simple this year, because things are crazy, Adam and I are tired, and simple is good. Speaking of simple (you like that seamless transition?), I have a Christmas craft to share today. It's very pretty and a big statement, but super simple to make. So a couple months ago I got and e-mail from Martha Stewart ('s PR …

Simple Christmas Window Decor

I have a confession to make. I haven't started decorating for Christmas yet. I haven't even thought about getting the boxes out of storage. We haven't been listing to Christmas music. I haven't baked a single thing. Gifts? What gifts? Now I've always been strictly in the "no Christmas before Thanksgiving" camp, and this year I've done a particularly excellent job of holding out. My kids have been really patient, especially considering that they are ALL ABOUT Christmas decor. As soon as …

How to Make Personalized Sharpie Mugs

If you've ever used pinterest, then chances are you've seen these "sharpie mugs". The idea is that you buy a cheap plain mug, personalize it with a sharpie, and voila! Crazy easy personalized coffee cups. Now, I've been DIYing for a while now and I can tell you one thing for sure...if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. (You can actually apply that to life in general, not just DIY.) I mean, sharpies are great and all, but they're not magic. They may be nearly impossible to get off a …

Rustic Christmas Art

It's hard to believe that Christmas is only a few weeks away...where did time go? If it wasn't getting dark crazy early and making me feel like I'm cooking dinner at midnight I almost wouldn't believe it. Today I have a simple Christmas craft to share with you. It's the only one I have planned for the year because I'm not one of those organized bloggers that's good a planning ahead. Also, I'm busy turning food into a human...that's a legitimate excuse, right? It feels legitimate to me. Here …

easy fall wreath

September 29, 2014

Easy Fall Wreath

According to the calendar summer is over and fall is upon us. Although Texas has cooled down a bit (thank goodness), it's still summer here. It's hot, everyone is in shorts and flip-flops, and I haven't seen a single colorful leaf or consumed anything pumpkin flavored. We even went to the beach this weekend. And while enjoy living in a state with endless summers, I'm ready for fall. I want to wear a sweater, sip hot coco in front of a fire, and jump watch my kids jump in a pile of leaves. But …

Christmas House Tour, Domestic Imperfection Style

Merry Christmas Eve! I'm sure everyone is busy preparing for tonight and tomorrow, but I thought I'd finally pop in with my house tour just in case anyone is online. I don't know if y'all saw all the holiday house tours this month, but there are a ton of them. Evidently house tours at Christmas are a big thing in the DIY blog world. I have sifted through and looked at most of them, and I have to say...I'm impressed. Everyone's house looks amazing, festive, cozy, and beautiful. Picture perfect. …

Snowflakes in a Frame

Today I'm sharing with y'all my third and final Christmas craft. This one is a little more difficult than the other two, but still super doable. You should probably read the tutorial though, instead of just scrolling through the pics and taking off on your own. Yeah, I'm onto you. Yesterday's idea was for all those old frames that are missing glass, today's idea is for all those frames lucky enough to keep their glass intact.   Materials - Frames with glass Spray paint …

Empty Frame Christmas Ornament Art….or something like that

Alright, today we have Christmas craft number two!

Materials - Empty frames Spray paint (I used Colonial Red by Rustoleum) Hot glue gun and glue sticks Miniature ornaments Twine, string, cord or something similar   I started out by collecting some …

Crazy Easy Folded Pillows

I've posted a few insanely easy projects over the years, but the one I have for you today takes the cake. I like to call it the "one minute pillow" because you can literally make it in under a minute (unless you have to take pictures of it for a blog post, then it takes significantly longer). There's no sewing, no gluing, no buying pillow forms, and no commitment.   Here's the (crazy easy) tutorial... First step, grab a pillow from somewhere in your house and a piece of fabric. …

Easy pac man family costume

Pac-Man Family – Easy Costume Idea

Pac-Man and our family have a long history together. To be more specific, Ms. Pac-Man and Adam have a deep and meaningful relationship that developed long before our own (and that's saying something, cause I nabbed him young). It's an ongoing love affair. When Adam and I started dating in high school I had heard of and played Pac-Man, but really, he never made a significant impact on my life. Then I met Adam, and I learned a few things... Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man are different, and the …

Carve a pumpkin with a drill

Carving Pumpkins with a Drill

I haven't carved pumpkins in a really long time. Why? Well, because this is how pumpkin carving seems to go... First you cut open the pumpkin and clean out all the guts. Lets face it...no one really likes this task. It's kinda nasty. Then you carve it up, put it out on your front porch, throw a candle in, and enjoy knowing it's out there for a few nights. Halloween passes and since the pumpkin has been sitting on your porch for a while you don't really notice it anymore. Thanksgiving comes and …

Valentines Day “Hey Girl” Features

Is it just me, or was this "Hey Girl" link party a huge success? I never expected so many link ups...almost 200 so far! I've read every single one and I can honestly say that I now know exactly what women want. If y'all would just send your husbands over to read through all these links then they will discover exactly what I did, that women are simple creatures. All we really want are three tiny little things... 1) We want to wear pajamas - baggy, paint covered, mismatched, horrible pajamas - …

how to make a christmas tree skirt

December 13, 2012

DIY Tree Skirt from a Tablecloth

For years now my Christmas tree and been naked underneath...we have just had the highly sophisticated fake tree stand out there in the open. This year I decided to class it up and add a tree skirt, but of course buying premade things is just not how we roll in this house. So here is how I easily made one out a tablecloth and some burlap ribbon. Start with a plain (or not plain, whatever tickles your fancy) round tablecloth. Since I avoid shopping with my toddlers I bought this one off of …

Muffin Tin Advent Calendar

Muffin Tin Advent Calendar (My Original Idea That Wasn’t)

Don't you hate it when you come up with an idea completely organically then later find out it's been done a thousand times? I came up with the idea for an advent calendar made out of a muffin tin and was really excited about it. I thought "Sweet, finally something where I wasn't inspired by anything I saw online! I'm so original...I'm going to be a Pinterest sensation!" Then I went onto Pinterest to double-check my originality and saw that muffin tin advent calendars are pretty popular. Dang. …

Blast From The Past: No Sew Ruffle Tree Forest

 December is nearly here and the internet has been taken over by Christmas crafts. Trees are going up, wreaths are being made, baking is being done... and here I sit all bah humbug-y with nothing Christmas in the works. So I'm going to cheat and repost the only Christmas craft I managed to eek out last year. My blog was still super small then so I'm pretty sure this will be new material for at least 90% of you. I probably could have even tricked y'all into thinking this was new material if my …

Bag of money baby and toddler costume

October 31, 2012

A Robber and A Bag of Money

 We don't do Halloween around here (what a weird creepy holiday) but we do do Harvest Fest, which is really just an alternative to Halloween at our church. There's lots of candy, games, and costumes and no severed body parts. It's a beautiful thing. So while perusing  pinterest for a costume, I found this... Awesome, right? And how adorable is that kid? That baby costume was store bought, but I figured I could make a Domestic Imperfection version pretty easily. I started with an old …
