Last year ~ 2014 ~ was a big year. The other day I was thinking about upcoming projects in my home and what I want to tackle in 2015. Then all of 2014’s projects and room makeovers came flooding in. I don’t guess I thought about how many room makeovers and projects I was able to tackle in one year. Too many really.
Sometimes I get discouraged that I’m not doing enough or don’t have time for all the projects I want to complete but when I looked at the year as a whole it made me feel better. Do you guys do that? Set crazy, unrealistic expectations on yourselves?
So I guess this is sort of my 2014 recap a couple months late :)

When I step back and look at all these transformations I can’t help but be happy but I also think I tackled WAY too much in one year! As the One Room Challenge approaches (6-week room makeover challenge hosted by Linda of Calling It Home) I feel the pressure to tackle another space. But I need to take a deep breath before I jump in head first so I’ll keep you updated on what I decide. I would love to freshen up my front porch because it is a blank slate right now but we’ll see!
I hope you guys have a great week and I’ll be popping back in several more so stay tuned!
Cheers!

You accomplished so much in 2014, love all these spaces!
Thanks Bethany!
those are aaaaamazing before/after photos!!! everything is just gorgeous!!
Thank you SO much Madeline!
What a 2014 you had on the home front, Summer! I remember the first project I ever saw of yours was your sawhorse desk and I’ve been hooked on all your fabulous projects ever since!! I love your style and your blog and am so glad you share your creativity here!
Aww you are so sweet Lisa! I remember when I found so many of you guys too! It’s such a great community!
Crazy, unrealistic expectations….sounds just like me. You got so much done and it’s awesome to see. But don’t feel pressured to keep it up. Breaks are good too.
Ugh, why do we do it to ourselves Julia :) Breaks are definitely a necessity!
WOW! … Your before pics look like the average ‘lived-in’ home, but your afters look like a high class magazine spread! …. Kudos!!
Thank you so much Brianna! What a compliment!!
YES! It’s like I feel like the little projects just aren’t enough and that if I don’t tackle an entire room, obviously I’ve failed!
However, you did an absolutely beautiful job on every single space. :)
