DIY: Link Roundup

I've been on a bit of a creative streak lately.  Aside from getting my new desk set up (pictures forthcoming), I recovered some oogly boxes I had laying around, yesterday it was warm enough to spray paint so I took care of more questionable boxes I own, and today I'm putting some trim on that vintage dress I started tailoring 37 years ago.

But I'm not the only one getting a lot done.  There have been a ton of great tutorials and projects floating around the interwebs lately:


First, a complete kitchen overhaul for $1,200, including new cabinets and a dishwasher.  Snap.


Next, some worse-for-wear dining chairs were made pretty again with a little paint and fabric.  I especially dig that yellow one.


And finally, the folks over at Young House Love finished their photo hallway.  And I want it.

Have you seen any great projects lately?  Maybe you finished one yourself?  Link up in the comments so we can see your mad skills.

    Hello! I understand this is sort of off-topic however I had to ask.
    Does managing a well-established website like yours
    take a lot of work? I am completely new to blogging but I do
    write in my diary daily. I'd like to start a blog so I will be able to share my experience and thoughts online. Please let me know if you have any kind of recommendations or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners. Appreciate it!
