July in Review

Wow! August 1st. Can you believe that? I’m still in shock a bit… I swear it was just March.

Anyways, just in case you missed any of my posts/ projects in July, here is July in review!

I started the month by sharing my DIY United States Pillow… and even though we’re past the 4th of July, this pillow is still hanging out in our breakfast nook!

I shared our summer living room shelves… they still look the same, but I’m feeling a change coming their way! 😀

And for $30 Thursday, I shared my DIY coat hanger to towel holder… it’s simple and perfect and I still love it!

I even had fun playing with some scrap wood… Anthony and I made these scrap wood file folders and suddenly life in the office is a bit easier!

Our landscaping made a bit of progress too… I’m over the moon happy to have our boxwood walkway completed! Now to finish a few more things…

Next, I continued a tour through blogland, answered a few more questions about me, shared a couple of sneak peeks and shared a few of my favorite ladies who inspire…

And, I ended the month with a new update on the fixer upper… the drywall is installed and the exterior looks waaay different… more updates to come soon!

It’s been such a busy month, and the fixer upper has definitely kept me busy! We’re on the home stretch, so I can’t wait to share another update soon!

Here’s to August! 😀
