My friends, where oh where did the time go?
A lot of years have gone by quickly for me, but this one takes the cake.
Besides a small flood in the basement, nothing disastrous happened.
The unnamed child has now had a job for over a year, graduated high school a couple of weeks ago, finished a semester of college, found a boyfriend, and is getting ready to start college full time.
I went to Haven Blogger’s Conference in Atlanta again, was flown down to Memphis to train with Amy Howard One Step Paint (and am now a Brand Ambassador), started taking Barre workout classes (which are killing me), and got to travel some with Topher on some fun business trips.
Topher had a good year at work, traveled more than he ever has for his job and has been taking CrossFit classes.
The furbabies have had pancreatitis, an abscessed tail, bladder stones, and a scratched eye ball. I now have to sell my plasma to pay for their vet bill, but they are now in tip top shape (knock on wood).
That pretty much sums up our year, and I thought I would show you my top 10 projects of the year also.
10. How to Update Yard Sale Baskets
8. Thrift Store Coasters Turned Front Door Decor
6. Craigslist Ivory Bookshelf Makeover
5. Classic Update on a Vintage Chair
4. DIY Restoration Hardware Coffee Table
Those are your favorites for the year folks.
Sometimes it surprises me that certain projects I think are only so-so, you guys love, and some of the ones I think are pretty darn great I get crickets.
I appreciate each and everyone of you that click over to see what I’ve made or what’s going on in my crazy life. Don’t worry, I have a lot more projects coming, and I’m sure a lot more crazy in store for the new year.
Make sure you head down to the links below to see all of my blogging buddies Top 10 also!

Enjoyed all of these projects and then some during 2015 Shanna. Especially loved the restoration hardware coffee table. Looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us in 2016. Happy New Year!
I love what you said about some of your favorite projects are not very popular and others that you thought were only so-so got rave reviews. I feel that way about several of my posts. I love your IKEA Rast makeover. Very opulent!
I so agree…I’m always surprised at what people like. I tried to guess your top post and guessed your bookcases. Knew they would hit the top ten! So many great projects! Glad I could help you with number eight ha ha…one of my top 10 was the pineapple lamp makeover lol!! Looking forward to another fun year of friendship, my beautiful friend! XO
All of your projects are amazing. I especially love the vintage chair makeover- all that curvy lusciousness!
The top ten is always a surprise, isn’t it? I love your bookcase makeover (somehow I missed that one) and also the chair makeover. I look forward to seeing what you share in 2016!
I always love those three-way challenges. (That sounds vaguely pornographic, now that I’ve written it.)
I’m with you on the Barre workout! I’m new to it and feeling the pain… I am glad I found you through this tour! Love your posts and am signing up as a subscriber as soon as I finish typing this! The pink mantle convinced me!
Shanna,
Your talent never ceases to amaze me. I love everything from the garage sale baskets to your coffee table and everything in-between. Thanks for sharing! It HAS been a wonderful year and I look forward to seeing MANY more of your talents in 2016.
Happy New Year.
xoxo
Shanna, you are amazingly talented! Your makeovers are stunning, especially that curvy chair! Here’s to 2016 being as productive for you as 2015!
It is funny how you never know what is going to turn heads and what isn’t. Loving the variety you have in your top 10. Your talent never ceases to amaze me, Shanaa. Happy New Year and here’s to 2016!!
Oh, that coffee table is marvelous!
Coasters transformed into decor– you are a DIY genius! Happy New Year to you and cheers for a wonderful 2016!
