Read the sequence from the top before cutting, painting, or moving pieces.
In the epic story of our remodel (follow along on Instagram, @Bekob #birchhouseremodel) — we took a vacation. And it was grand. That’s one of my tips for surviving a (constant) remodel, and you can read the rest here — and leave your sanity-savers in the comments there!
I also rehabbed an old cabinet into an solid new console table in the Sherwin-Williams Color of the Year for 2015: Coral Reef. Check it all out here.
And then I (finally!) blogged about my experience at Fitness Ridge. It was memorable. I’d love for you to read all about it here (where I maybe confess my love for Kneaders… a lot).
Meanwhile, here on the site, it’s been a lot of great projects, a fun giveaway… and getting ready for Christmas!
We just LOVE seeing what YOU are doing, so please link up at the link party or come share with us on Facebook or Instagram #iamaBekob. Last month we featured lots of great paint projects — and this month we are looking for holiday projects, so scurry over and link up before the party ends!
And we’ve got you covered for Christmas — try on new color scheme
or one of these 200+ holiday DIYs!
Contributor Team
Have I mentioned how solid our contributor team is? If you aren’t already following them on their sites, go now! They are fabulous. We welcomed two new members this month who are sharing vivid printable designs with us:
Michelle from Elegance and Enchantment shared these lovely printable labels for your Thanksgiving leftovers (pin it so you’ve got it for next year!)
and Courtney from Paperelli shared a great printable Thanksgiving banner
and this cute “home for the holidays” print that might just be my new go-to thing.
