Many thanks to Apartment Therapy for featuring our headboard project in it's Best of 2010 series! We got a great mention in the Twenty Projects for a Handmade Home post! The project was originally featured on Apartment Therapy in July, and (of course) we wrote about it, as well.
The other featured projects are outstanding and are definitely worth checking out. My personal favorites:
Weekend Project: Transform A Chair with Decopauge
Originally featured on styleathome.com, this project by Kevin Austin made an unremarkable chair into stand out accessory – see instructions by following the link.
Sailor's Knot Doorstop and Paperweight
This project, originally featured (with instructions) on Design Sponge, took a lot of unnecessary flack for whatever reason, but I think it's clever. We definitely could have used a chic door stop in our last apartment, and I love a good sailor's knot!
DIY Trunk to Rolling Cart Project
This project really needs no explanation. Prop and set designer Dane Holweger created this adorable bar from a vintage trunk and shared a full set of instructions. I want to do this in our new house!
Weekend Project: Give an Old Bench New Life
I've come across a gabillion old benches that could be fabulously chic with a little love (and maybe a little fur?). This is a project that would work for tons of uses: a bench at the front door to sit on and put on/take off shoes, a piano bench, a spare bench that can be pulled up to the dining table when seating becomes tight during entertaining or a bench at the end of a bed to catch blankets kicked off during the night. I can't wait to tackle this one, too!
Thanks again to Sarah Rae Trover at Apartment Therapy for choosing our project – and to Megan (our friend and a favorite recent client) for giving us the heads up on the feature!
