    The BEST DIY PROJECT OF 2013 Contest

    By Stacy 43 Comments

    Wahoooooo! I look forward to this all year. I love linky parties and this is like the linky of all linkies! I get to see the best of the best and it rocks. You guys never disappoint.

    Today is the day when you can link up your  favorite DIY projects that you completed last year.  I will look through them all and with the help of my guest judges, we will narrow them down to the top 10 projects. The top 10 will be announced on January 20th and the voting will open up. Anyone can vote for their favorite project from the 2oth until the 26th. The winner will be announced on the January 27th!!!!

    Just like last year I have enlisted the help of some of my blogging friends to be judges.

     Rhoda from Southern Hospitality  Traci from Beneath My Heart  Sandra from Sawdust Girl  Lindsay from Makely Beth from Home Stories A to Z  Gina from Shabby Creek Cottage  Emily from Decor Chick  Roeshel from DIY Showoff  Chris from Just A Girl  Melissa from 320 Sycamore  Jennifer from Tatertots And Jello  Sarah from Thrifty Decor Chick  Beckie from Infarrantly Creative  Shelley from House of Smiths  Brooke from All Things Thrifty  Myra My Blessed Life

    guest judges

     

    I want to give a HUGE thank you to our sponsor, HOME DEPOT. They are amazing and so supportive :) The winner will receive a $250 Home Depot gift card.

    Home-Depot-Gift-Card

     

    * Open to residents of USA and Canada only

    *The project(s) must have been done by you (it is alright if you had a little help but the idea and the majority of the work should be YOU)

    *The project needs to to have been completed and posted about in 2013

    *Link up a max of 3 projects (I know how hard it is to narrow it down to one!)

    *If you do not have a blog but would still like to enter please email me ONE photo of your project and a description to notjustahousewife@yahoo.com and I will link it up for you.

      I am SO SORRY Stacy! I read the first rule and it said project(s) and I went to town. :(

      THEN I went back and read the rule link up three! Yikes.

      If I had to pick three, I would pick:

      1. Chevron Stripe Ornament Christmas Tree

      2. Joey's Collapsible, Glue Gun Teepee

      3. Before & After - How to - Distressed Chair

      What a great idea to link up favorite crafts of last year!! Excited to show off my "Wicked" wall frame. I posted it a week before Halloween and it didn't get much attention. You girls have a lot of great ideas to choose from!! Excited to see who you pick!

      Have a great week!

      I want to make a basket holder for our tv room for our grandkids to put their toys and craft supplies in. I hate the clothes basket that they are in now.
