I’m Kendall and I blog over at Songbirds and Buttons. I am a momma of one adorable two year old little man named Wyatt and my husband and I are currently expecting baby #2 (due in November!). I’ve been blogging for a few years now and just absolutely love sharing creative ideas, honest and genuine stories of motherhood, and all of the little things I find beautiful in life.

Upcycling – I’ll have to remember that term. I always called it repurposing, but then maybe that’s different. We do that a lot around here. The two most recent ones was upcycling the old electronics cabinet into a storage for my food photo props, and transforming the butcherblock from the old kitchen into my photography table. Both work great! Love the upcycling ideas you’ve given us. Headed to check out the links! thanks!
