As a brand spankin' new blogger I didn't think it wise to take on any blogging challenges, but I follow one pretty inspiring and awesome blogger who goes by The Nester.  She's pretty fantastic, so if you like easy and beautiful home decor, she has some really great posts and a gorgeous home to show off!  Every year she does this 31 day series in which she picks a theme and posts about a topic for the entire month of October!  That's right... every single day!  I thought to myself, "no way can I pull this off!"  But after talking to my ever-supportive husband and some dear friends, I realized heck yes, i can!  So I'm going to try it.For the next 31 days I will be posting about the little (and maybe big) ways in which I am attempting to make our house a home.  I hope you will follow me on this journey as I challenge myself (and most likely Alex too!) to try new things, use some old ones, and maybe... just maybe, PAINT!Let the first 31-day series begin!And if you'd like to see the links for all future posts, go to my 31-Day page HERE!
