July Recap!

July has been a fun summer month here in Charleston! Partially due to the fact that we've been out of town or had guests almost every weekend, we've put major DIY on summer vacation and focused on cooking & enjoying the city. If you've been on vacation yourself, here's what you missed:

In the Kitchen:

corn challenge

I shared my love for one of my favorite foods, corn on the cobb, by celebrating an entire week of it! Check out our final call on the best way to cook it - here's a hint - its slooow but good 🙂

Cookie Brownies - Charleston Crafted

I tried out a new box mix for cookie brownies and was not disappointed.

Mojito Chicken - Charleston Crafted

I took a page out of Rachael Ray's book & tried her mojito chicken- it was a summery delight!

Grilled Romaine Wedge Salad - Charleston Crafted

In the spirit of summer, we made an awesome wedge salad- on the grill!

Summertime Beach Cake - Charleston Crafted

I made one of my favorite childhood dishes - beach cake!

Pinspiration:

Salt and Pepper Shakers that will make you Smile - Charleston Crafted

I got a little sassy with salt & pepper shakers that make me smile.

Top Ten Pins Patriotic PArty

I shared a little inspiration for your patriotic summer parties.

 

For the Home:

DIY Frame from Magazine Strips! Charleston Crafted

I made this black & white herringbone frame- can you guess what from? Here's a hint - it was free!

Restoring an Old Wooden Vanity- Charleston Crafted

Turn a picture frame into a glass tray - Charleston Crafted

I spruced up my vanity & made it a new glass tray! Get me a new stool and it's almost complete.

Rope Bud Vase from a Jelly Jar - Charleston Crafted

I covered a jar with sisal rope to make a nautical bud vase.

Guest Bathroom After - Charleston Crafted

We re-did our whole guest bathroom! We updated the light fixture, added a pendant light, framed the mirror, and added board and batten. I'm in love!

Around town:

Charleston Riverdogs Baseball - Charleston Crafted

We shared our love for the Charleston Riverdogs baseball team. If you're ever in Charleston when they are in town- it is a must-go!

Also, the biggest news was the introduction of the Charleston Crafted boutique! I'm just listing a few small items, but I'm really excited to be able to have some fun with it!
