Lots of things have been happening lately! I got back from Haven, an annual home decor and DIY conference for bloggers, earlier this month and if you follow me on Instagram, you know that the family and I escaped to the lake for the week. It was MUCH NEEDED.
I learned a lot at Haven and y’all already know that I drank too much at Haven – you can read a little bit more about that, here. While there, I had a chance to catch up with some old and new friends and today, I wanted to share a bit about what these amazing ladies have been up to!!
Prepare to be inspired…
Old Friends:
Tricia at Suburban Bitches
Tricia from Suburban Bitches is one cool gal! I love her design posts like this recent one, 8 DIY’s Inspired by Pottery Barn. Take a look at these chic DIY’s and check out their Velvet Finishes makeovers while hanging out with them. You’re in for loads of fun with these bitches. 🙂
Cory and Kristy at Robb Restyle
Kristy never disappoints with her vintage, beautiful makeovers.
Take a look at this DIY Backyard Playhouse that they built!! DIY doesn’t get better than this you guys.

New Friends:
Timisha at Toolbox Divas
Timisha is an experienced handy Woman and DIYer, take a look at her blog – I’m convinced the woman can build anything!
Oh, and she is a wine lover – hence this DIY Wine Caddy she built…

Friends I met who have used Velvet Finishes:
Meg at Green with Décor
Meg has transformed a few Enchanting pieces with Velvet Finishes, but this was my first time meeting her. She is precious! Apparently, we snapped this cute little photo that I borrowed from her recap of Haven. Meg is a super talented blogger and you guessed it, she has a deep love for green decor. Take a look at her latest post that I loved reading through, How to Update Plain White Dishtowels with Paint!
Yuni at Love your Abode
Yuni is located pretty close to me in Georgia! Woot Woot!
Her home is absolutely gorgeous – check out her DIY guest bedroom that she let Velvet Finishes help with…
Susan at Saw Nail and Paint
Susan has a passion for thrifting and furniture makeovers!!
Her makeover with Velvet Finishes had me ready to paint a table pink!! Take a look…
Jenny at Evolution of Style
Jenny has completed many DIY projects and she never ceases to amaze me with her ideas!
Take a look at this dresser that she used Velvet Finishes on for her daughter’s room – presh!
I hope that you spend some time checking out what my Haven friends have been up to –
they are seriously, super talented and I enjoy keeping up with what they are all up to!
Cheers!
