Some women have a lot of shoes, others prefer to spend their hard-earned money on nice purses. Some collect kitchen gadgets, books, hours at crossfit, or cats. Me? I collect paint.

My point is that over the years I have learned a lot about painting and have some tips that will make painting a room easier, faster, …

The Top Ten Posts of 2013
Before we jump into the top posts of 2013 I just wanted to say thank you for all the sweet comments and e-mails I got after posting my Christmas house tour. I haven't had time/energy to respond because the flu hit our house on Christmas Eve. I am just starting to feel somewhat normal, the kids are still deep in the flu trenches, and by the grace of God Adam had off all week and didn't get sick. Anyway, after having such a great response to my messy house tour pics I've decided to stop working …

Reader Projects
Do you know what my favorite part of blogging is?
It's y'all. You guys. My readers. I love that I can write about my life and projects and you guys just keep coming back for more. The absolute best e-mails I get are from readers showing me a project they competed after being inspired by something on my website. It makes my day, every single time.
So I thought I would put together a post showcasing some projects I have been sent recently. I love seeing reader projects and figured y'all would …

2011 In Review – The Top 10 Projects
February of this year I started Domestic Imperfection on a whim. I had been reading lots of craft blogs and thought "I do all this stuff, I should start a blog." And start a blog I did. I had no idea what I was doing, which was okay because I didn't really figure people would read it. And they didn't. In the month of May I got a whopping four pageviews. FOUR. Then in the month of June I figured out how to link up to parties and things started to take off. People commented and told me how awesome …
