Remember on “Family Matters” when Steve Urkel turned into Stefan Urquelle?    In case you missed it (you know because you weren’t born or you were trying to get some peace and quiet while your kids watched TGIF) you can find a clip here.  The quality is not great but you get the gist.  Steve was re-purposed to be Stefan and while we might miss him doing the uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-urkel he was destined for bigger and better things.  There are a lot of things I would love to re-purpose and give a fresh new look.

One that I have been really been wanting to do is turn an old shutter into a magazine rack like the one below from My Repurposed Life.  She has an awesome tutorial on how to do this and it looks oh so cool and fun.

If you haven’t even seen her blog, you should. It is kind of awesome, I think she is a mixture between Martha Stewart and Bob Vila.  While some of her projects seen a bit lofty for me, there are some that look completely doable.  Another one is this adorable sign.  While I would probably buy board to use, I think this would be a really cute addition to a wedding or a party.  You can find the tutorial here.

I also like her family rules sign.  I would love to use my Cricut and make one of these.  (That is, if I had any wall space left in my little ole house.)  Her tutorial is here.

Go out and enjoy your DIYF and weekend!  I might just try to fit the Urkel dance into my day somehow…
