It’s time to share one of my favorite posts of the year: the best of Lovely Etc. 2019!
Every year I love to look back and see which projects and tips I shared over the year were the most popular. And it’s a fun way for you guys to catch up on any great posts you may have missed the first time around.
This year’s top ten list is filled with of inexpensive room makeovers, furniture flips, upcycles, and helpful DIY tips. (Basically all of my favorite things!)
Best DIY Home Projects of 2019
This year I finally got to share our kitchen makeover! I was able to completely transform our ugly, dated kitchen for less than $1000 (including the appliances)! Now it's a bright, welcoming space I actually enjoy cooking in.
Our master bedroom also got a long overdue makeover full of thrifted finds, DIY projects, and personal touches.
This little IKEA makeover is super simple but it turned out so gorgeous!
When you're on a tight budget, creating a space you love can seem impossible. But there are actually lots of things you can do to create a beautiful home that don't cost a dime!
This scarf wreath is a quick and easy DIY project that's perfect for transitioning your Christmas decor for the rest of the winter. Even better, you don't have to alter the scarf at all so it's still wearable.
This old dresser was in very poor condition. After a makeover using milk paint, it's now the perfect farmhouse dresser with a gorgeous, authentic-looking chippy paint finish.
I knew this old sofa would be gorgeous with some fresh paint and upholstery! Reupholstering a sofa isn't a quick and easy DIY, but it was so worth it and not quite as daunting as I imagined.
This little trick for filling the holes in IKEA bookcases is so simple but it will make your inexpensive bookcases look like a million bucks!
There are about a million and one tutorials for painting cabinets on the Internet, but I always wonder how well those painted cabinets really hold up through the years. So two years after sharing my own painted cabinet tutorial, I came back to share an honest look at how they've lasted.
Sealers are definitely the most confusing part of painting furniture. So I put together a guide to everything you need to know about when you really need to use sealer and which ones really work the best.
In the next few days, I’ll be sharing my plans for the coming year – all of my house goals along with the projects I’m hoping to share with you guys.
