My Favorite Projects: February 2012

I heard someone say “Happy New Year” the other day.  I too am surprised at how quickly this year has been moving, but I think we can all agree we are well past the Happy New Year part of the year!  Welcome to March!

Like usual, at the start of each month I like to take a look back at the previous month and share some of my favorite projects that I came across on other blogs. 

First, here’s what I was up to in February.  The month started off a little slow as I was adjusting to a starting a new job, but I ended up accomplishing a few cool projects.  Click on the link to see the full size photo and read the full scoop about the project.

I added some folksy art to my kitchen:

I came across a ton of great projects on other blogs too. Here’s are some of my favorites.

Hi Sugarplum created some very stylish mirrored boxes.  Don’t be surprised if you see me try this out someday!

And you will never believe what Matsutake’s lamp looked like before this amazing transformation (found via Curbly).
