The DIY Showoff Featured My Houndstooth Upholstered Chairs

I'm back from BlodPodium, the Canadian Design Bloggers Meetup & the Interior Design Show.  What a fun weekend!  I can't wait to share with you who I met, what I learned and what I won.  But first, some news:


I enjoyed an internet-free weekend because I forced myself to spend any computer time on the first chapter of my dissertation - due tomorrow.  Eegads.  So you can imagine my surprise when, upon returning to the world of internet and popping in on a few blogs before bedtime, I spotted my very own DIY project on The DIY Showoff.  Roeshel previously featured my DIY Framed Bakelite Brooches and over the weekend featured the houndstooth upholstered kitchen chairs Hubby & I just completed.  I love Roeshel's blog and am so flattered she has found my projects DIY Showoff worthy.  If you've seen her recent stairway transformation, you'll see why I consider kind words from her about my DIY prowess a high compliment. 

These chairs got some love from The DIY Showoff.

These framed brooches got some love, too.

    Thanks everyone! I appreciate the support.

    I'm not trying to be all "braggy" about the project-love. Just making sure I send some blog love back to The DIY Showoff and thank Roeshel for the feature. Some lovely new blog friends have been made as a result :)
