We tend to look at all we didn’t accomplish, every thing still taking up space on the to-do list but this time of the year is a great time to count blessings and recap accomplishments.
Here’s a look back with links to my favorite DIY from 2014 BIG and small…
My first project of 2014 was an open pantry reveal with tips for making DIY pipe shelving. I still love this space. There’s also a tutorial for the easy painted accent wall that is often mistaken for pretty wallpaper.
This next space ties the open pantry as one of my most favorite in 2014. I just love the fresh new look (of course if you check out the ‘before’ photos, you know why!) bathroom before and after makeover…

I plan on having more overnight guests in 2015. Check out the Guest Room/Nursery Reveal…
My craft room tour and DIY window shelves. I’m considering moving this space in 2015. Ambitious plan. lol We’ll see!
I gave my sister’s back door/entry area a fresh and fun new look for her birthday:
There is still some work going on in the laundry room but loving the bold staggered striped laundry room wall and herringbone tile floor…
Aaro’s small apartment nursery nook reveal (my first grand child’s birth announcement).
This was so easy! A gold arrow accent wall…

And finally, my holiday home tour. 
First project of 2015 will be putting away the Christmas decorations. I don’t like doing it but it sure feels good when everything is put away. So fresh and decluttered. Other plans for 2015: a master bedroom and bathroom makeover, a shower in the guest bathroom, the start of a basement makeover (huge project) and giving a helping hand to my mom’s new fixer upper. I suspect that because of this cutie (my new grandson, Aaro),
that you’ll be seeing lots of baby-related DIY projects as well as a handful of arrow-inspired ideas too!
How about you? Have any plans for the new year? Something new? Something fun? Something DIY?
