Hello everybody! How are you on this fine fall day?
It’s going to be a good week my friends – it’s my birthday week and today is the monthly before and after link up here on the blog. Both equally awesome. :)
As always I picked a few of the beautiful projects shared last month to show you here and then you can take a look at all the new links at the end of this post.
September was the month for pretty rooms for girls, that’s for sure! Anita’s redo is absolutely stunning:
I think the eggplant color is so sophisticated but still pretty – perfect for tween girls. And the origami art on the wall is just the coolest.
Amy also designed a sweet, fun room for her five-year-old:
The paper poofs and the vinyl dots are such inexpensive ways to make a big impact in a room – SO cute. (I shared how to make those poofs yourself here.)
And this gorgeous nursery belongs to Cristina’s niece – her mama is talented, yes?:
There are so many lovely little touches in this room, you have to go check it out. Love it!
Looking at this hutch now you would NEVER guess what it looked like before:
Hayley really did this piece justice – sometimes painting is definitely the right move for older furniture.
Jennifer tried something I’ve never attempted – using dye to change the color of a lampshade:
It came out so well, now my wheels are turning!
With all those girl rooms I couldn’t leave out the boys! I loved the inexpensive and easy touches Tamara added to her boys’ room:
Those headboards only cost $20 each to make – awesome! (You can see my tutorial for a tufted headboard here.)
Nicki’s paper bag floors are so cool looking!:
She shares how they have held up in that post – worth checking out if you are interested in trying this flooring treatment.
I have to say, I think this next makeover may be my favorite for the month! Julie helped out her music teacher friend by making over her room and it is AWESOME:
As a wife of a musician/composer/band director this room makes me SMILE big. Absolutely love it. Think my husband would want big piano keys on his office walls? ;)
Well there you go! Now it’s time to see what you’ve all been up to over the past few weeks! If you’d like to be considered for a highlight next month, please link to TDC in your post or include this button:

Happy Birthday month! Haven't been by in a while so I came to party for old times sake ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting another wonderful party Sarah!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the feature of my paper bag floors, Sarah! When I saw a spike in my page views, I knew something must be up, and looks like you are the culprit! It is much appreciated, and I just linked up this month again. Thanks for hosting! Have a very happy birthday in October!
ReplyDeleteSarah we are doing our upstairs over (3 bedrooms and a full bath). I have been trying to come up with a plan for the bathroom and driving my husband crazy (naturally) and then I remembered your bathroom. I looked it up tonight and was shocked to see you have the exact same vanity that we bought yesterday and now we are going to do the same to our walls. Thank you Sarah.
ReplyDeleteLove the features, Sarah! Thanks for hosting!...hugs...Debbie
