Hey y’all… How funny does that sound coming from me? Well, today we’re taking some time to show you some amazing projects that some of our blogger buddies have been working on and one of them happens to have the sweetest southern accent, so I though I’d give the old y’all a try. I’m thinking it should never come out of the mouth of a Boston raised, Philly transplant (and yes, I had to Google it to even see how y’all was spelled! Ha!)
Anyhow, onto business. We want to introduce you to some crazy talented ladies that we’re lucky enough to have met through blogging. If you don’t already follow their blogs, you’re missing out, but here are some of our favorite projects we’ve seen recently.
Kim @ Sand and Sisal
Kim’s posts are so dang pretty. Her pictures are amazing and this project is no exception. These glass vases can be made from paint and nail polish remover?!? I know right? I was amazed at the tutorial and will be going to the dollar store for vases STAT! Check out her tutorial!
Shaunna @ Perfectly Imperfect
This is the lady that says y’all and it sounds just lovely! Shaunna (in my opinion) knows her style and how to achieve it better than anyone in blogland (and yes, I know that’s a BIG statement). If her rooms don’t make you a tad jealous, than you’re a better woman than I am! It might not even be my style, but the ability to take a room and pull it together so well is something to strive for. You have to check out all of her home before and afters. And funny side note… we were both on Nate the same day and didn’t even know it! Jess and I were working like crazy on the 24hr backstage challenge!

And I had to include this picture, because it’s Jess’ personal favorite of Shaunna’s.
Brook @ Being Brook
I think Brook is the next Ana White! Seriously, she has built so many awesome projects and this picnic table was just one of her recent masterpieces. Doesn’t this whole set-up make you want to be invited over for a picnic? She also just made super cool wooden planters that would have cost big bucks from a store. Check out her blog for other DIY projects and to see all the details of this amazing table!

Allison @ House of Hepworths
I’ve been following Allison’s blog for ages now. It’s awesome that I’ve actually gotten to know her! This project is really simple, but looks like something she bought at a high end store. I love Allison’s ability to take something average and make it awesome. Check out how she added the awesome pop of color to these bowls and then turned them into art! (Allison also has a great link party each week it you’re looking for a good one to join!)

Jenna @ SAS Interiors
Do any of you have “real designer” friends? Jenna is my “real designer” friend and when she says a room I’ve done looks good, it’s like a compliment x10! If you want to learn about styling bookshelves, or arranging a room, she is your girl, but she also does some great DIYs and this one spread like wildfire in blogland. Shower curtains are crazy expensive for cool ones, so Jenna figured out how to use any curtain as one! Her steps are simple and will make it last, so check it out!

Now why do I want you to meet our blog pals??
I thought I’d introduce you to them # 1 because I think they’re awesome and #2 because we’ve started a combined Pinterest Board called “Creative Minds” where you can keep up with some awesome DIY and decor projects. The 6 of us will all be pinning to it, to bring you one very awesome inspiration board! Make sure you’re following on Pinterest and get ready to see some awesome projects coming your way over the next few days!
Thank you so much for including me Monica & Jess! You ladies are awesome. xo Jenna
