INSPIRATION CAFE WELCOMES A NEW MEMBER!

We are so pleased to add Mel, from Mellywood's Mansion as a new member/permanent contributor to our group at the Inspiration Cafe.   She has done a few guest posts for us here, but if you haven't met her........ 

Haven't we all had at least one project that made us want to put a drill to our head?  Her blog is Mellywood's Mansion a Diary of DIY Delights and Disasters
and she is a delight to read!  Here's a clip from her blog that still makes us laugh!.......

"DIY - an acronym scaring and scarring families everywhere. Hi I'm Mel and I am on a mission to renovate and decorate with little experience but a whole bag full of motivation. Read on to be amazed or horrified with what I come up with."

Just so you can get to know Mel a little better, here are a few of her favorite posts.....

The House of Horrors......Inside the Mansion

 This is kind of the beginning of her mission and it's sure been fun to follow along!

No More Bob the Builder for My Kids

Mel has been working on her laundry room and it's so cute!

Lies, Damn Lies and Butter?

She refers to the above project as a "butter offering" and if you don't know what that means.......here is Mel's explanation in her own words, "Well today's project is what I like to refer to as a butter offering, or spelled correctly but-ahh.

If you don't know what it means, it's when you see something from far away and you go, oh that looks great then you get up close and you screw your face up and think, "but-ahh" no, no it's not."

Now, we love everyone of Mels posts, but here are a few of our top faves...so far.....

 My Life of Crime and a New Beginning

How you start with a title like that and end with a picture like the one above....well, that 's just the beauty of Mel's awesome sense of humor!

All That Glitters Is.......Trash Chic!

You all know how we love a quick, easy and inexpensive project, and this was one of those.  Trash Chic?  We think Mel has coined a phrase!

A few you've probably seen featured....like everywhere.....

Jaw Dropping Drawers

Bottle Cap Advent Calendar

 We hope you enjoy Mel as much as we do and we think she fits right in with our group here.  We are delighted to have her and you'll be seeing a lot more of her here in the future!  

Thanks for joining us Mel!
