Happy Tuesday! Looking back through my older posts, I noticed that I’ve mentioned the importance of photo quality a number of times. We love looking at pictures. And I guarantee the people who visit your web site love looking at pictures too. So why would you post any photo on your blog that is less than fantastic? As I sit here and think about that question, I can only think of four possible explanations why a photo would exist on your site that is below your standards: You want ... VIEW POST
Tuesdays With Topher: Basic Photo Editing
Ivory Parisian Coffee Table
Happy Monday my friends! I hope you all had a good weekend! I spent mine painting the trim in my hallway. It doesn't sound like a bit project, but by the time you get it all taped off, remove hardware from where the doors are, and get three coats of paint on it, it consumes your whole weekend. I have one touch up coat to do today, and I'm finished! I can't believe how much better it looks with the white paint than the honey oak ... which I'm so over. After the trim is finished, I can get ... VIEW POST
How to Build an Eclectic Gallery Wall-Decorating Challenge
Today I have a project for you that has been under wraps for quite a while. After we installed our new carpet in the basement, the first thing I did was build my new gallery wall. One of my favorite things to look at when I go into people's homes, virtually or in real life, are their gallery walls. I think they reveal a lot about the homeowner's personality. I have been hoarding gathering items for my gallery for a long time, and until recently they were just setting in my storage ... VIEW POST
Tuesdays With Topher: How to Hug a Blogger
Hi there! As you probably know by now, Shanna attended a blogging conference earlier this month in Atlanta. This was her third round at Haven, and each time she returns, she is so full of energy, and recharged, and ready to take on the world. After spending three days with her peers (in the real world ... not through a keyboard), she's reinvigorated because she was surrounded by people that understand what it's like to work on a web site from home, and these friends understand how ...

Haven Recap 2015
Happy Monday everyone!!! I hope you all had a good weekend! Mine was not nearly as productive as I had hoped. As I mentioned last week, I am getting ready to re paint the entire upper level of my home. I have been living in the Land of Beige for the last 10 years, and I am so over it. I am now going with grey, but I had no idea what an ordeal it would be. I went all over last weekend, going from store to store, buying samples of grey paint. One was too blue, several too lilac, some too white, ... VIEW POST
Haven Conference 2015
Hello my friends! I'm back! If you've been following along, you know that I was in Atlanta for a few days for the Haven Bloggers Conference. This is my third year attending, and I look forward to it all year. Blogging is kind of a strange thing. Unless you are one, most people have no idea what they are. You have no idea how many times I have had this conversation: "What is it that you do?" "I'm a blogger." "What is that exactly?" "I run a DIY website." ".......So that's what ... VIEW POST
Tuesdays With Topher: Content
It’s been a couple of months now since Shanna graciously allowed me a recurring spot on her site, and during that time I’ve tried to provide some helpful tidbits on how to secure your blogspace, what goes into picking the right CMS, and how to design your site to suit your fancy. And I’ve tried to weave in a few points that I want to write about in greater detail, and one of those points is content. I’ve said it before, and I’ll continue to beat the drum … content is king (or ... VIEW POST
