2012 Top Projects

Hello again!  Remember me?  I’ve been taking a break from the blog over the last few months, but I’ve missed it and am hoping to get back in the groove of posting regularly.  And I can promise you that I’m back for reals because I have already written several posts, so booyah- I’m back!  If you’ve been wondering where I am, I have been busy working on a super exciting secret project that I will be spilling the beans about tomorrow!

But before I get into that, I wanted to take a look back at 2012.  Hey, it’s only February!  Even though I trailed off blogging towards the end of last year, I still managed to accomplish a few pretty awesome projects, if I do say so myself.  So let’s take a look at a few of my favorite projects and most popular posts from last year.  In 2012…

I transformed a dated 90s computer desk into a beautiful new craft and office space.




I took the plunge and painted my oak fireplace white and added new tile in a seemingly never ending multi-phase project. 




I sewed green patterned pillows and a nautical map pillow (made from an unexpected source.)




I made cute coasters using vintage images of the Jersey shore:




I shared a trick to grow your own green onions indoors:




I showed you how to make a few yummy recipes like a delicious Nutella breakfast panini and chocolate peanut butter banana bites.

 


I made a storage box by repurposing an unusual object.




I designed a concert poster style summer fun list:




And finally I made a cute felt matroyshka Christmas ornament:




So that’s a little look into my life last year.  Here’s to 2013 being a bigger and better year!  In fact, I can assure you it will be, I’ll be spilling the beans on why and how tomorrow!
