AS THE YEAR COMES TO AN END

Hello, everyone!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Ours was so nice, quiet and peaceful, just what we needed. :)

In just a few days, 2012 will come to an end and before that happens, I thought it would be fun to post just a few of the many projects we have done this year around our home.

Some are big, some are small, but we had fun with all of them, well, may be not too much fun with one or two

LOL, you know, the ones that gave us all kinds of problems.

Here is looking back at 2012.

We started the year turning our upstairs game room into a larger bedroom for our daughter.

We had to enclose the room, add double doors, and, when all was said and done, it turned out to be a two week project.

Boy, that was a lot of work! 

And later, I painted, glazed and stenciled her dresser

Right after, we started the renovation of our spare bedroom to turn it into a craft room.

We ripped off the carpet, painted the room and installed hardwood floors

Little by little, I am turning it into my craft space.

I made a new balance for the window and changed the look of a $5.00 chandelier.

In our bedroom, I made a coverlet for our bed from an old pair of drapes and we added a new sitting room.

 Through out the year, we have sprayed painted everything but the dog. :)

Here are a few of the projects.

 

We added a few embellishments to our mantle

I made a burlap and lace runner for our kitchen and we added a pot rack over our island and some new chairs to our breakfast table.

I also had a lot of fun participating on the copycat parties hosted by Debbie at Debbieddo's.

Here are a few samples.

I put together a couple of tablescapes.

We added molding to our front entrance and stained the door.

And I made many, many wreaths and pillows for my porch. :)

 

It has been such a fun year full of home projects, but the best part for me has been getting to know all of you, making new friends and learning so much from your creativity and beautiful blogs.

I sure do appreciate your friendship!

Thank you all for stopping by!
