Before and After: Julie's Bright and Cheery Kitchen Makeover
Julie, who writes the awesome blog Mamaphunk, recently took her kitchen from drab to fab with a total makeover. She writes, "My husband and I did everything except install the cabinets and countertops, we're good but not that good! I wanted to go for an Anthropologie-like vibe and I think I did a decent job.
Before and After: Deanna's Admirable Craft Room Makeover
Craftster member Deanna recently bought a house, and one of her first priorities was setting up a well-organized and workable craft room. She writes, "Naturally I chose the largest of the two extra rooms and started to get to work. The carpets were blue and new flooring is not in our budget right now, so I worked with them instead of against them.
Before and After: A Dull Bath Blossoms
When faced with a dull and drab half bathroom, it's easy to ignore it, since the work to transform the space often seems daunting. However, crafty lady Singalala took her dull and drab bathroom from an eyesore to a standout in one weekend! She writes, "I have been living in my rental house for two and a half years now.
Before and After: A Tired Table Gets a Fiesta-Ready Look
Craftster member Princessnance recently posted photos of a table that she took from drab to fab with some DIY know-how and a lot of hard work. I love how this tile table, which many of us might have seen little potential in, has been completely transformed thanks to Princessnance's hard work. She writes, "We had a tile table that was made with really good, solid wood...but I hated the way it looked (hello, 1996).
Casa Verde: An Upcycled Headboard
Craftster member Jessyratfink recently posted pictures of this awesome book headboard project. She's no stranger to upcycling old books into home furnishings. In fact, we featured her DIY instructions for a book-legged table here.
Cool Idea: Stenciled Shelving
I recently stumbled upon Craftster member Retroeva's post on her kitchen makeover. While I love the new look, my absolute favorite part of the kitchen is Retroeva's stenciled open shelving.
As you know, I'm a big fan of open shelving.
Before and After: From Dull to Punk
For some home decorators, music is a way of life, and that means that music must become a part of their home decorating scheme. Take Craftster member Anarchy_Onions for example. As you'll see, she isn't shy about incorporating her musical tastes into her home.
Thanksgiving Pies + Berets = Thanksgiving Pie-rets
Some people rob banks and get into trouble with too much time on their hands — others crochet berets in the shape of Thanksgiving pies. (Nice latticework, and I'm really digging that scrumptious dollop of cream!) I'm pro-pie crocheting, just in case you were wondering.

Craftster member Tashaduckman recently shared a very cool upcycled project. She writes, "We had to make a lamp for class using a recycled material . .
Cool Idea: Frank Lloyd Wright in Thread
Craftster member PencilNeck's embroidery creativity has bowled me over. She made this embroidery of a Frank Lloyd Wright blueprint as a Christmas gift for a family member who works with architectural design. She embroidered almost exclusively with backstitching for the project, and found blue floss to match the blueprint color.
