Well hey there!
How was your Christmas??
Our was fantastic. We are very blessed.
The year is winding down. I thought I would re-share my most popular and my personal favorite projects of 2012!
#5:
The change of my kitchen color to Wythe blue.
This is still my very favorite paint color.
#4:
This was knocked off the wall by my terrible window hanging job, and is now in 2 separate pieces.
#3:
My Beadboard wallpaper backsplash:
This still looks brand spankin' new. I LOVE this stuff!!
#2:
My Ballard corkboard knock off:
I made these for $11 each, and Ballard charges $89. Helloooooooo.
And... my #1 post of 2012...
My DIY window cornices!!
I'm actually quite surprised by this one.
And to be honest, these are no longer hanging. I couldn't come up with a secure way to keep them up.
It's ok.
I'm going to completely change the whole room in the new year, and the window treatments are going to be epic. EPIC I TELL YOU!!
Now, can I show you MY favorites? Sooooooo hard to chose!!
#5:
My first attempt at using milk paint. LURVE. I intended on selling these, but couldn't.
I'm sure you understand.
#4:
One of the best projects I've done. I'm not gonna lie, these weren't easy.
But, I'm so proud of them every single time I walk past and think: "Yep, you did that!"
#3:
My Board & Batten dining room wall:
This was my first time using a nail gun, and I was scared.
It turned out so pretty, and I love it so much.
#2:
The Loft:
This went from an empty, dark space... to a happy & warm space. On a pretty tight budget too!
And my very most favorite project of 2012:
I'm sure you guys guessed, right?!?! It was the most difficult project with the biggest payoff.
Still lots of things I want to add to the space. But, I'm so thrilled with how this turned out!
As the year winds down, I'd like to remind you all how much I appreciate each & every one of you!
I have made some of the most incredible friendships just because of this little blog.
I hope 2013 is a year filled with blessings & love, for all of us!
XOXO
I want to paint my whole house Wythe Blue but my fav is your stairs. Seriously, WB walls and brown paper floors...when are you available for hire? (and I'll take those tables too).
