Next Chapter Home Decor

I’ve had so much inspiration from watching all my favorite crafters lately! This amazing transformation from Miriam, I believe, is beautiful!

I’m starting to dive into the world of Pentart USA and Decoupage Queen as well as my other tried and true crafting supplies from Roycycled Treasures, IOD - Iron Orchid Designs, Wise Owl Paint. This project using “everything but the kitchen sink, but “Wow!”

Step into a cozy vintage winter wonderland! I combined decoupage, ...

Some people know what they want and have a vision. I’m so glad I could help Sam make her vision come true .

Have you noticed it too?

Every time I open Facebook, I see another simple craft video. Some are fun and inspiring… but a lot of them feel like the same project with the same techniques over and over again.

I don’t want Next Chapter Home Decor to be just another page doing what everyone else is doing.

So tell me…
-What do YOU actually want to learn?
-What kinds of projects excite you?
-Are you looking for budget-friendly decorating ideas, thrift flips, furniture makeovers, organization hacks, seasonal decor, painting techniques, or something completely different?

Your comments will help shape the videos and tutorials I create because I want to make content that’s truly helpful—not just more content.

***For fun, I will randomly choose one comment and award that person with some free basic starter supplies that are needed to do the project they wish to see.
**All you have to do is comment and share this post.😊

Can’t wait to read your comments!!

From April of 2025- April of 2026, I refinished over 50 pieces of furniture for clients through my former business Oakwood Exchange.

I’ve since retired from the store but am still working on pieces and working on building up toward providing lives, videos, and classes through this page and my website www.nextchapterhomedecor.com.

This week I am back to work on larger projects I had promised clients prior to my health issues. I’m all healed now and am finishing them up this month.

If you love refinishing, repurposing, and creating, please tune in often. I will be posting here, on my Instagram page, website, and YouTube page all under the name
Next Chapter Home decor. If interested, I’d love to see you on all or any of these pages❤️

I’ll post pics and videos of my current projects soon.

I appreciate all of you!

Over time you find those special people that inspire, nurture, and cheer you on in your creative journey. Everyone’s creative journey is unique. Whether you create for peace and quiet, to express yourself, or to feel inspired by creating unique items. It is definitely a personal journey.

For me, creating gives me calm, peace, and a sense of child-like discovery that seems to be lacking in my adult world.

I love it! I love inspiring others. I love sharing tips, tricks, and techniques to those who already create but I also love to provide others with a time to relax and enjoy the creative process while making something beautiful.

Today I was reminded of this gift I have been given. My background in education and my lifetime of loving crafts has blended into a place where I am blessed to be able to share crafting time with others.

My absolute FAVORITE thing I’ve been blessed to do is provide crafting classes to a group of AMAZINGLY BRAVE breast cancer survivors through a local group of unbelievable women who honored me with hosting countless crafting classes where I actually learned more about life than any crafting lesson could ever provide.

Today I was blessed to meet up with one of those fabulous ladies at our local hospital.

It reminded me of all the wonderful times I had with these strong, courageous and beautiful women who have fought and won the breast cancer journey!

Crafting is so much more than creating home decor. It is therapy and it is a means to bring together a community of people to become friends and people to enrich our lives.

I hope you can join me on this retirement journey to not only create but connect and provide a safe place for conversation, support, and friendship through creating together.

With Love,
Jenny ❤️

I’m exploring the rebirth of coffee table books. I remember them being a huge deal in the 70’s when I was growing up. Some were huge and some were small and subtle. But I’m having a blast creating some for not only coffee tables but also stacking and displaying. Here’s a few I’ve done lately. Currently exploring covering books with fabric and other mediums.
