Number 10 - Vintage Headboard Dining Bench

I think the funny story behind why this well-used bench in our dining room needed a makeover is what made this post so popular. The before and after bench transformation has merit for making the cut too. We love the new look so much more!

Number 9 - Pink Ombre Waterfall Dresser

I was happy to see this dresser made the list. It was my first attempt with the ombre paint technique and I had so much fun. I definitely plan on doing another ombre makeover in 2020, I'm just waiting for the right piece to come along.

Number 8 - DIY Faux Apothecary Cabinet

This started as my parent's first dresser from the late 1950s. It's had a few makeovers over the years, most recently transformed into an apothecary cabinet. While it may look like there are 15 drawers, in reality there are only two. The surprise is waiting inside. My son and daughter-in-law are using it as a fun bar for their basement family room!

Number 7 - White Farmhouse Sideboard Buffet

This was one of the easiest furniture makeovers of the year. Just a wash of paint completely transformed this children's dresser into a lovely dining room buffet with Farmhouse charm. A surprise pop of color is waiting inside.

Number 6 - No-Sew Bed Skirt For Adjustable Beds

But it also works for regular beds too! I received so many emails thanking me for this skirt tutorial. No more lifting a heavy mattress to remove the bed skirt for laundering! While intended for adjustable reclining beds this no-sew bed skirt idea works for most bed styles.

Number 5 - Vintage 9-Drawer Glossy to Farmhouse Dresser

I was thrilled to see this makeover made the cut because it is one of those love or hate finishes. I definitely stepped outside my distressing comfort zone on this one. The Farmhouse finish looks so good in our master bedroom.

Number 4 - Repurposed Mid-Century Modern Cabinet

It's all about that bright happy yellow on this one! A thrift store MCM dining sideboard find that had seen it's better days. My daughter wanted a media cabinet for her living room so we repurposed it to house media components. She picked the color which had me step outside of my comfort zone.

Number 3 - DIY Stuffed Animal Zoo Gift Idea

These DIY Zoos have been on fire this holiday season so I'm not surprised they made the list. What did surprise me was that they were the third most popular post on the blog this year. We made them last Christmas for our grandchildren to corral their stuffies in one place. They were a big hit with Mommy too, who planted the seed in our heads.

Number 2 - How To Harvest And Dry Lavender

This post motivated so many of you to harvest the lavender growing in your flower beds! I'm so glad I decided to share the tips I learned on how to harvest fresh lavender, dry the flowers indoors, along with suggested uses for the fragrant blooms.

Most Popular Post - Built-In Pantry Makeover

I have to say this one took me by total surprise! In fact, I debated for days whether to post the makeover because I didn't think there was a significant difference between the before and after. But there definitely is a HUGE difference between the original Before photo (included in the post) and the After because this farmhouse built-in kitchen pantry used to be a small dining hutch!

MY Favorite - Repurposed Jewelry Box Door Christmas Ornament

Normally this is where I share my favorite project of the year but instead, I decided to choose my favorite holiday DIY of 2019. Why? Because this year I really amped the holiday projects and this was my favorite to make. A red Christmas door ornament made from an old jewelry box with the glass in the door turned into antiqued mercury glass.

Cheers to 2020 - Happy New Year!
