This week, the lovely and talented Shanna Gilbert of Restoration Redoux is in the Bloglight! I remember how I amazed I was when Shanna first joined Hometalk, because she kept on posting these awesome furniture makeovers, day after day. I just couldn’t believe how many projects she had up her sleeve! Shanna redoes vintage furniture, and actually started her blog as a way to personalize the furniture she sells for customers who wanted to know the story behind the piece-how cool?! Thank you for sharing, Shanna! Read it here.

This week, Jocie Hagan of One Project Closer’s The Better Half is in the Bloglight! First off, I’m glad Jocie clarified the pronunciation of her name, (pronounced “Jah-cee”), since I hope to meet her at Lucketts, and I would have certainly gotten it wrong! :)
It was really cool to read Jocie’s post and get a glimpse into the behind the scenes of her impressive blog. You can read her post here.
This week, Ashley of Domestic Imperfection is in the Bloglight! Have you seen a post about paper bag floors lately? Yep, that’s Ashley’s project! How about penny countertops? Those are hers too! Needless to say, Ashley is one of the most creative bloggers I know and I am thrilled to feature her in the Bloglight this week! You can read her full post here.
