5 minute DIY Magnolia Wreath for less than $25

I'm kind of obsessed with magnolia wreaths. They blend beautifully with pretty much any decor from farmhouse to cottage to rustic and so many others. My style in my home is a little bit farmhouse, a little bit french country so it was inevitable that I would want a magnolia wreath (or 2 or 3) mixed in with my decor.  I swooned over them for years but never purchased one because I wasn't willing to spend $50-$100 for a large magnolia wreath.

My New Adventure: the Rabbit Hole of Lyme Disease

This post has been on my mind a lot since I found out at a few short months ago that I have Lyme Disease and several tick related coinfections. After debating with myself about letting my readers know, I ultimately decided that yes, Thrifty Artsy Girl is more than just a blog about my DIY crafts, home improvements and the occasional recipe.

I love making over old dressers. It's one of my favorite furniture flips. I just can't resist when I find an old, well made dresser for free, or extremely cheap. It's like they scream out to me: "Make me pretty again! I won't let you down like those new fangled dressers that can't even call themselves wood! Look, I even have dovetailed drawers!"
