The Best of Q2 2022

You guys loved my Q1 blog post where I shared a bit of the behind-the-scenes of what performed well during the previous three months, so I’m back at it again for Q2. The most popular blog posts, the bestsellers, and the items that really resonated with you. Not only is it helpful for me to see what you guys like, but I figured it might be helpful for you in case you missed some of these well-received products or posts. So letโ€™s get take a look at the best of Q2 2022.

Your Favorite Blog Posts from Q2

Mauve walls in a dining room

As a content creator, itโ€™s so funny to me because I often have trouble predicting the success of individual posts. There are some posts that I think are going to do very well and then they flop, and others Iโ€™m not even that excited about, and then they do amazing! I never can predict what will really resonate with people! Here are the blog posts that you really loved this quarterโ€ฆ

Organizing Jan’s Built-Ins

My mom's organized built-ins

My mom and I had so much fun organizing her bedroom built-ins. It was hilarious going through these and seeing all of the random stuff she had in there, along with the hundreds of gift bags! I also fell in love with vacuum sealing all.the.things. because of this project. If you have an organizing project on your to-do list, then give that post a read.

My Three Year Home Anniversary

Our three year home anniversary

Every May, I do a home anniversary blog post to showcase how far our home has come in the past year. This post was eye-opening because it showed me that we’re just about done with this house. Oh, and my absolute favorite part of this annual blog post is our family photo on our front porch. Seeing how much we change and how our family grows is so special. We’ll keep doing that forever!

LaTanya’s Home Reveal

It wasn’t a surprise that our big Feel Good Makeover reveal was a crowd favorite during Q2. LaTanya’s home makeover turned out so beautifully and we had a blast giving back to this very special person. You can see the entire transformation right here.

Tips to Take Interior Photos With Your Phone

Get out and start shooting!

I’m so happy that this one made the list! My amazing assistant, Lindsey, is a professional photographer and I had her share some of her tips for shooting photos of your home on your phone. I learned a few things from this one and I hope you did too.

Bathroom Renovation Cost

Our main bathroom renovation reveal

I wasn’t shocked that this one made the list. Everyone likes a post where you actually share real numbers for a project. I did a budget breakdown of our two bathroom renovations (the kids’ bathroom and our main bathroom) and shared real-life numbers! I know it’s helpful for others when it comes to planning their own home projects.

Storage in my medicine cabinet mirror

I don’t have any big renovations planned this summer, so we’re looking to do some smaller DIYs around here. Finn and I will be doing some landscaping projects and also we will finally seal our backyard pavers. I also plan to do a bit more organization when it comes to our closets and cabinets in our new bathrooms. Oh, and I’m planning to finally get around to hanging a hallway gallery wall. Cannot wait to get that going!
