Blog Stalking: Great Reader Projects

 

Lately, I've received some great links via post comments and emails to some wonderful projects that I wanted to share with you. 


Check out this laundry room makeover recently completed by Elizabeth at The Mustard Ceiling:

I'm guessing the stencilled walls required the patience of Job, but I for one, think it was worth the effort.  She used a design from Olive Leaf Stencils, one of my sponsors.  Read the step by step process (and see the "before" picture) here.

I loved seeing the transformation of this living room at Just a Touch of Gray.  For those of you with husbands who cringe at the thought of painting brick and/or wood, hopefully these pictures will help him change his mind.



 





They documented the entire process here.


And, remember this post about the crate bookcases I loved?  Meghan of When I Grow Up recreated the idea for her son's room using vintage fruit crates:

 



   
    

 
I'm enjoying seeing your projects--especially since it seems I have very little time for any of my own these days :)  Hope you have a productive weekend.

  6. Love these-- I think I could deal with the umpteen loads of laundry per week if I could be in Elizabeth's laundry room. First time I've ever had laundry room envy. :)
    Have a great weekend, Emily!

  16. When we were looking for a home, my husband would basically run out of any house that had panelled walls. I think if I'd shown him this re-do, he would have been a bit more optimistic about their potential!

  17. Those are great, but I am a total sucker for before and after - blew me away! Especially because I thought the mirrored chests were so unexpected in the corners, but love them there!

  19. All of those projects are great! Amazing how good all that paneling looks after the white wash technique!!! The laundry room would almost make me want to do laundry! Not.
