IT’S MY ONE YEAR BLOGIVERSARY!
Yep, it’s hard to believe I started this blog one year ago. I’ve had such an amazing time creating new projects and making new friends; it still amazes me how much this little blog has become such an integral part of my life!
So to celebrate, I’m having some fantastic giveaways this week (to say THANK YOU for the love & support) and I’m going to share a little bit more about ME each day!
So today’s topic?
MY TOP 5 FAVORITE PROJECTS THUS FAR
My Daughter’s Bedroom Makeover
I turned my daughter’s hot pink mess of a bedroom into a room she can really grow into. I painted the room a light blue, stenciled an accent wall, purchased new bedding and added some finishing touches.
Master Bedroom Makeover
I wanted to make our bedroom light and bright! We kept our black furniture, but added a white-washed wood panel accent wall, new bedding, fun & funky dry erase boards, and some fabulous accessories.
My Brother’s Bedroom Furniture Transformation
My brother and his new wife has mismatched furniture when they moved into their new home. To give everything new life, I painted all the pieces black and added new hardware. LOVED this project!
Stone Kitchen Backsplash
I was trying to make sense of my grey countertops and orange oak cabinets. This past year we installed this stone backsplash that really brought together the two colors. I’m happy for now, but see painted cabinets in my future!
Sewing Desk Makeover
I received this sewing desk from my aunt over the winter. It’s amazing what a fresh coat of paint can do! Now I just need to learn how to sew…

Happy Bloggy-versary, Erin!!! You’ve done awesome your first year! I’m almost at the year mark myself, although I wasn’t blogging for about six months after my computer broke. So now that I think about it, I guess I’m more or less just half way to 12 months of blogging. Sorry, just thinking “out loud”. haha Anyway, congratulations! Thanks for hosting a fabulous giveaway too. = )
