July has been a busy month! Here is a quick recap on my favorite posts in case you missed them the first time around.
DIY and Crafty Goodness
My favorite project this month was where I turned a Poster into a Faux Painting! This was such a fun project and I just loved your great responses on it. Many thanks to Lindsay over at Living with Lindsay for featuring it in her Teach Me Tuesday feature this week! I also loved that Camille @ Mother★Lode featured it in her Tuesday Tumbler.
I decided to think outside the box with my $1 Yard Sale Mirror and come up with six ways to transform it! I really loved doing this project, really made me think outside the box. It even lead me to create my Cardboard Chalkboard in the end! I also want to thank Julia @ Hooked on Houses for featuring me in her weekly roundup!
Decorating Around the House
I finally got a new coffee table! You guys know how long I have been wanting that checked off the list! Of course there is still a long list of things to do to get the room "finished" or at least finished until I change my mind!
I also shared with you guys how we decorated around the TV with some light white accents. I think it is just enough for things around the sides without being too distracting.
Inspiration Ideas
In honor of the 4th of July and backyard BBQ's everywhere - I shared some ideas for Backyard Party Spaces. I still love drooling over this picture!
I also shared some great ideas from my MIL, Lynn's house. I think everyone loved her fantastic headboard that she made out of an old door!
Shopping Tips and Finds
Of course there were a lot of great yard sale finds over the month that haven't been transformed yet, like this set of cute oval frames for $2. Stay tuned for what is going to happen with those and the other yard sale finds that I working on making over!
I also gave you a run down on my tips for shopping at Ikea. You have to have a game plan people!!
I also did a round up of some great summery window treatments. I think by far everyone's favorite panels were these from JCPenney!

From All Around the Web
I loved the Trellis Wall that Kate @ The Centsational Girl did on her Master Bedroom Wall.
I found this idea for using Lazertran paper to put graphics on ceramics from Jenn @ Rook No. 17.
I adore these beautiful smocked curtains that Wendy @ The Shabby Nest made herself!! I really want to do this for our bedroom!
