Monthly Review

Bekob in Review: September 2015

This monthly review walkthrough stays in the order the work happens.

Fall is in full swing, and while the weather is still finding it’s well fitted fall balance here in UT (some days still lingering in the ‘too hot for fall’ category), we hear that it has cooled off in other states! September went by quickly for us, trying to get back into a routine, with school in session and extracurricular activities starting again. October is going to be a fun month as we continue to celebrate fall but also prepare for and enjoy the excitement of Halloween! Our team thinks it is so fun to celebrate the holidays with you while discussing decorations or helping you prepare your home for its next gathering. We love discussions and always take questions here or over on Facebook, please come engage with us!

Get your Handmade on with these great projects! Build a desk, revamp a light fixture, make your own bench, plus striking room makeovers and more!

Our team has been busy finding well fitted colors schemes, solid Handmade projects for your home, and festive fall and Halloween decorations. I have been busy with our home remodel and shared some before and after photos of our nearly finished kitchen! I love sharing our home updates and discussing them with you! I love seeing your updates too! So please share away, so we can all see!
