It's back!!!!! 10 Questions With....

We use to do this thing back in the day. 10 questions with......fill in the blank. It was an excuse to get the goods on some fabulous bloggers we are inspired by. Then we got busy and dropped the whole thing. Over the past year I have been so lucky to meet so many amazing bloggers, I felt it time to bring 10 Q's back. We re-start with Roeshel from The DIY Showoff. A sweetheart I met in Indiana at the Delta Offices during a blogger event. Totally love this lady. You will too. Trust. 

1. What's Your Name and URL: 

2. When did you start blogging? What drove you to blog?: 

I started blogging in 2007 to journal our home improvement projects. I loved having a place where I could write about the transformation and share before/after shots. 

 

3. What has been your favorite post?

My favorite post is actually a page with our farmhouse tour that I update as we check projects off of our DIY list.

4. Where do you go to for inspiration? Dish blogs/stores/locations/etc: 

I find my inspiration in catalogs, my favorite magazines (Country Living, BHG, House Beautiful) and online:  Pinterest, Houzz and other DIY bloggers. 

5. Every dweller should: 

Do what they love. 

6. If you had unlimited funds you would buy:

New high end kitchen appliances. My husband tolerates my DIY and projects and gives me mostly free reign when it comes to design. He does the cooking so if we had unlimited funds, I'd love to surprise him with a stand alone refrigerator and stand alone freezer - his dream.

7.Where would you buy a second home and why?: 

When we pay off our current mortgage, we'll be buying a house in Florida. I hate snow. I loathe cold. I have some family there and we try to visit at least once a year now, but as we near retirement, we'd love to stay more often for longer periods of time (did I mention I hate snow and cold?). 

8. What's your favorite piece of furniture in your home?
Right now it's my reclaimed barnwood dining room table. I love it's natural beauty and bulk. 

 

9. Your homes style is:

One word? Eclectic. I love farmhouse, vintage, rustic, modern country, French inspired. Our house is a design mutt but I do what we love and it reflects our comfortable style. 


10. Three words to describe your personal taste:

I like for things to be 1) organized, 2) personal - to have meaning or to reflect things I love and 3) thrifty - We're always on a budget and I love that DIY projects and thrifty tricks help us achieve making a room transformation happen with beautiful results.

Thanks so much Roeshel! Thanks for running such an awesome blog packed with inspiration!

How awesome for you guys to feature Roeshel. I've only known her for a short time but , much like all the DIY gals I've met, Roeshel has been nothing but kind, inspirational and encouraging. I could not think of a more deserving person for this.
