Life's Little Challenges

Well guys, I have something fun to share with you! I've been asked by Better Homes and Gardens to participate in a challenge with 4 other bloggers where we will each be doing a different project with a $500 budget and supplies that must all be purchased at Home Depot. We will have 48 hours to complete our projects and mine will be a potting bench area. You can follow along with me as I blog about it on the BHG 48 hour challenge blog. I'm really excited to be a part of this and hope you guys will be my cheering section. I'm going to need all of your support because I've got some stiff competition! So head on over and take a peek and say hi when you have a moment.

Oh and did I mention that you guys will get to vote for your favorite project and that there is a $5000 prize at stake?
