It’s that time again! It’s almost summer, can you even BELIEVE it?? I can’t. Today we kick off May (I know it’s already been around for a week, whatever) with this month’s before and after party!
First, some of the awesome projects linked up last month!
Rasha updated her IKEA sofa with a little somethin’ and it looks fantastic!:
I’ve had the supplies to the do the same and this has inspired me! Check out her post here.
Christina came up with a way to hang her plates and it is brilliant!:
Go here to see more. (Totally a DUH moment over here – wish I would have thought of that.)
I loved Alicia’s art project and what she used to make it!:
I planned on using those exact napkins from Cost Market for a project and then they sold out! I LOVE them.
I love how Kelly transformed dollar store plates into something pretty and special:
Go to this post to see how she did it!
Lori’s huge Pottery Barn knock off mirror is spectacular!:
And so is the price -- check out her great step-by-step instructions on how she did it here!
Lynda is a girl after my own heart. She loves NYC as much as I do and I remember drooling over her awesome spaces years ago (before blogging) over at the Rate My Space page. That’s where all of us bloggers hung out pre-blogs. ;)
She recently moved and wanted to dress up their rental bathroom. Check out how she created a beautiful space here:
Isn’t that amazing? It’s gorgeous!
And I’ll wrap it up with Megan’s living room because it’s such a fun, pretty, bright space!:
I LOVE the pops of orange she has in there – check out this post to see more.
OK! It’s time to see what you’ve been up to! Like always, please don’t link up a post you’ve linked before and I’d LOVE a link back, especially if you’d like to be highlighted like these lovely ladies.

ReplyDeleteSarah, thanks so much for always hosting. I love the Before and After party every month! Even The Hubs knows what it is!! Love your features this month. There really is so much creativity around us! (P.S. I'm a big fan of Lynda, too. Love what she can do to a rental.)
ReplyDeleteWow - so fun to see my DIY Music Lyric Plate featured here - in such fabulous company!
ReplyDeleteI love that Pottery Barn knockoff mirror and I am definitely going to be making those invisible plate hangers (I have been buying the expensive version)!

ReplyDeleteThose napkins are made of the EXACT same material as the parson chair covers I want from World Market!
ReplyDeleteLove the napkin art!
ReplyDeleteFabulous features (just adore Kelly's music lyric plate and not just because she used fellow Jersey resident Bruce Springstein's lyrics)!

ReplyDeleteThat is so funny what you said about how all of us bloggers hung out at Rate My Space pre-blogs. Rate My Space is how I first discovered the wonderful world of blogs (I was stalking all the bathroom spaces for my master bath remodel ideas).
ReplyDeleteAs always, thanks again for hosting! :)
So much talent! You all inspire me!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting! This is my first time linking up here.
