October before and after projects! (Link up your own!)

Hello all! I've been sick for the past four days and am finally feeling a bit better today. It was so odd -- I'd feel OK, then not, then OK, then really not. It's been years since I've been this sick but I am hoping I'm finally on the mend.

Because I've obviously started losing it a little in my old age and I forgot about the monthly before and after link up again this month...I'm getting it up today. Let's just say I'll aim for the first Monday of the month but I may just surprise you...who knows when it will be? I like to keep you on your toes.

As always, I like to share some of the awesome projects that were linked up last month before we kick off this one. And as always, there were some amazing projects shared!

Sue's kitchen renovation was dramatic and turned out beautifully:

I LOVE her backsplash tile! This is such a bright, pretty space. 

Kim and her husband created the coolest pegboard storage wall for her son: 

You'll have to see how they are using it -- this thing is awesome! (And I love that they painted the ends of the pegs different colors.) I'm thinking this may work for all the Nerf guns in our house!

Emily's kitchen renovation consisted of a few changes that made a big difference! Light gray cabinets, new lights and that awesome laundry door look great:

I'm always intrigued at what's going on at Kammy's house. They uncovered a root cellar and landscaped around it:

And now I want a root cellar! This turned into such a lovely spot! (You have to see the before pics to see how far it's come.)

I LOVE Breann's DIY driveway sign:

She shares all the steps for the structure and the sign in the post. This is too cute. 

Carli made over her daughter's room into a sweet space with great functionality: 

Her daughter is precious and her reaction was adorable too. :) 

Karrah saw a hall table she loved and worked with a fellow blogger to come up with plans for this piece: 

I love the coastal vibe the ropes add to this table! You all never disappoint with fun, useful and pretty projects!
