It’s always exciting to start a new project!
March 6, 2008
I’ll be honest with you - my home has never been what you’d call “decorated.” It’s more a collection of spaces that we use for the daily business of living, but I’ve never really understood how to make it beautiful without spending a small fortune and more time than I have recreating something out of a magazine.
Well that’s all gonna change!
Sometime in May, we will welcome a baby girl into our family, and I’m finally in a position to create a real nursery (as opposed to just setting up the crib in a corner of our bedroom). Since I have absolutely NO design experience and I’m definitely on a budget, I’ve enlisted the help of my good friend Shauntelle of A Beautiful Abode. Join us as we work together across 700 miles to create a special place for the new baby and blog about the process.
Here at Living at the Speed of Life, you’ll get the behind the scenes planning, budgeting, and organization work that will go into this project. I hope it will help you manage your next project!
At A Beautiful Abode, we’ll get to drool over the gorgeous designs and ideas that Shauntelle is dreaming up for this girly oasis in a house full of boys. I for one can’t wait to see what she comes up with!
We’ll both be writing about the DIY projects that will go into this project, so there will be plenty of great info and inspiration to go around. We’ll be hosting contests, so be sure to check back for the details. Join us as we prove that anyone can create a beautiful, organized home - one room at a time.
[...] check in every Thursday, starting next week, okay? And be sure to pop over to Tricia’s blog, Living at the Speed of Life, today to read her take on the project and to say [...]

[...] Tackle. I have a family of 5 - soon to be 6 (if you haven’t already, check out the nursery blogging project!), and with our 3-year old potty training, let’s just say we generate a LOT of laundry! One [...]
