TUTORIAL TIPS AND TIDBITS #30




WELCOME!

I want to encourage anyone who does not think they have any DYI projects or great tips... you can almost post anything in the "tidbit" category!  We just want you to show up and show off your creativity!!!

Let's get linking!!!!!!

Here are some great posts from last week...




The new years makes many of us want to organize... Get  THE BEST ORGANIZING TIPS from THE VIEW ALONG THE WAY. This was the most viewed post last week!


Best Organizing Tips



Let's keep organizing with 30 WAYS IN 30 DAYS TO GET ORGANIZED from Clean and Scentsible






I LOVE LOVE LOVE year end recaps! They are usually the best-of-the-best! Just like THE BEST OF 2012 from I GOTTA CREATE







Here's another FAVORITE PROJECTS FROM 2012 from ZU HAUS AT HOME. This was one of the most widely read posts last week!




Sideboard 4




Now that we are exhausted from organizing we need a little bit of... chocolate! CHOCOLATE EGGNOG PECAN BREAD PUDDING (let me lick the bowl!) from SHAKEN TOGETHER is just perfect for a nosh!










This FRENCH BEE TRANSFER PICTURE from DECORATED CHAOS is on my radar! Tres chic!








Here's a bit of beautiful design and color from SHABBY BROCANTE.  Darling SUR LA TABLE VIGNETTE







LET'S TALK CHALK is a must read for anyone who has a chalkboard... very important to know. Terry turned a disaster into a masterpiece!







If you can sew a straight line you can make these RUFFLED CURTAINS from PAINTED THERAPY... sigh!








I love Anita's advice, "If you don't like it... repaint it." And she did! See SHADES OF GRAY at CEDAR HILL RANCH.








Here are a couple of WINTERY SWEATER PILLOWS I made.  This was a favorite little project of mine!

    Thanks for the feature. I just had not seen anyone talk about the permanent nature of the chalk pens when they weren't supposed to be permanent. I hope to save others from my error.
