Projects & Downloads

Happy Thursday! The snow is gone… but we know there will be more! That’s the joy of living here in Colorado — real seasons and lots of variety. Yesterday I spent an hour at the dentist, but the view of brilliant orange leaves out the window just washed away those reminders about regular flossing… Have I mentioned how much I love autumn?

Anyway… new this week on Mid Modern Mama — an idea and a download.

As winter set in last year, we found our dining room too dark for — well, anything, frankly. So we had to come up with a solution that was cheap, interesting, and easy. We did, and I absolutely LOVE our Aspen Branch Chandelier! It cost us a total of $15 and took an afternoon to make. And here’s the best part: we decorate it for holidays and seasons. You’ll see what Bambino created for Halloween in the post. It is an important part of our holiday decor all year round!

And exciting news! The PDF version of The Nice List is available now for instant download. If you already purchased it, an email came to you earlier this week about this. But if you are still thinking about purchasing The Nice List I have a few print copies available when they arrive SOON or you can purchase the PDF download. I put together some simple printing instructions, too.

Make it Yourself: Branch Chandelier

We had a dark dining room, but with a few things around the house, a little help from a neighbor, and $15, now we have an amazing chandelier which we can decorate for holidays all year round!
