{2011} A Home in the Making

Did you all have a great Christmas? We had such a lovely holiday. It was filled with family and so much love and fun. Over the next couple weeks I'll share some of the gifts we received + one of the gifts we gave. You'll love it :).

But today we're going to take a look back at the year we've had at A Home in the Making. We've had this little blog going for over THREE years. Can you believe that? And, it just keeps getting better each year. I like looking back on the year because it's fun to remind myself all we've accomplished on our little home. 

So here are my favorites, by month.

January

February
In the midst of a couple major projects, we found a compass. On our floor.

March

April

May
We finished up our hardwoods by installing quarter-round. And, we talked about why we are NOT moving. Right now.

June
Was a month of risks, and of starting the {yet to be finished} craft room.
July
Launched the summer of fun series that took me on a crazy whirl-wind tour of the NW and lasted through September. 

August
Included creating a capiz pendant and learning many lessons from painting a high-gloss black navy blue door.


September
Was all about our new gallery wall and a variety of living room updates.


October


November


December
Was all about the holidays. Of course.

I think what I love most about the last year is how many big house projects we tackled. Especially compared to last year. I feel like we really made a dent in our house project list.

I'm linking up to Southern Hospitality's link party. I can't wait to read everyone's lists! :)

And 2011 has been quite a year as well - you have a ton of really awesome projects under your belt for the year. I really love your gallery wall and your living room - really everything but those are my favorites. Congrats Jenn and looking forward to 2012!
