Lessons Learned: My Favorite Projects {October 14th}

in Lessons Learned on

Sharing is caring!

Here again are a couple of my favorite projects I found while flipping through the DIY blog websites. These people have totally inspired me and want me to get out my paint brush (or sewing machine, oven mitt, and anything else crafty)!

First up is this AMAZING Halloween countdown to candy porch sign from Corner House blog. I’m just in awe over this one! Man, I wish it was a little earlier in the month cause I would TOTALLY make this! I’ll have to settle for pinning to Pinterest and saving for next year. Or couldn’t you see a cool Christmas porch countdown sign with twinkling lights? LOVE.

A similar project I really like is this Christmas countdown calendar from eighteen25 that would be perfect for my kitchen. This project is actually from last year but I just came across it on Pinterest. What a great idea to use a clipboard and tear away the pages everyday. Definitely making this one soon!Next up are these adorable handmade treat bags from That’s My Letter. I’m amazing what some people can do with a sewing machine and a little creativity!

Now onto an amazing furniture find! Laura over at Our Prairie Home transformed a buffet that was in complete shambles before. Don’t you just love the use of paintable wallpaper on this piece? You have to see the before and after transformation on this buffet. Simply AMAZING!

And finally we have a sinful snack from Bakers Royale! Bikini killer cookies, also known as Chewy Chocolate Chip Snickers Cookies. Yeah, I think I just gained 5lbs just looking at this photo! BUT I’m going to have to try this recipe 🙂

Hope everyone enjoyed my picks for this week! I’m aiming to finish my sewing table makeover on Saturday and frame some GORGEOUS posters that I had printed by my brother-in-law’s company. oh! and we’re getting a new backsplash in the kitchen this weekend. I’ll give you a big reveal soon!

Happy Weekend! GO CARDS!!

    Thanks for the feature, Erin! I’m truly loving how the buffet came out. Isn’t it amazing what a little wall paper can do? 😉
