Furniture Feature Friday – First of 2013

Welcome to the first official FFF of the new year!  If you’re new(er) to my blog, you may wonder what this Furniture Feature Friday is all about.  Well, a few years ago, I noticed some link parties around the blog world.  Bloggers would allow other bloggers to link posts of projects or recipes or whatever they wanted to share that week.  I started participating in these parties and saw a huge increase in my blog traffic and interaction with other DIY/Home bloggers.  At the time, there weren’t any furniture specific parties, so I decided to start one.  I think that was about 2 1/2 years ago.  Now, here we are.

This is a place for people to share furniture projects, makeovers, great finds, new furniture arrangements, etc.  It’s JUST furniture, though, so please don’t link up crafts and recipes and stuff.  I do count kitchen cabinets as furniture, so that’s okay.

Each week, I will pick out my favorites (three usually) and share them on my blog.  This year, I might enlist the help of some FFF regulars and ask them to pick their favorites.  I always seem to go for the same kind of stuff!

Unfortunately, you do have to have a blog to participate.  The post goes live each Thursday at 10:00 pm EST.

…and that’s what it’s all about.  I hope you enjoy it!

Here are the rules for our furniture get-together…

1.) Your post has to be about furniture. Please, please, please…just furniture. If you find your link has been deleted, it’s not because I’m mean, it’s because your post was not about furniture. You can share makeovers, awesome finds, favorite pieces, furniture arrangements, or even pieces on your wish list! Built-in furniture like kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities qualify as furniture.

2.) Post a permalink (the link to the post), not the link to your blog.

3.) This party will close Friday at midnight PST and I will choose my favorite(s) and feature their piece(s) on next week’s FFF.

On the way home from the Country Living Fair, my mom and I thought we would stop by a few antique stores.  We planned on shopping our way up to Rhinebeck, but the GPS routed us on toll roads, so we didn’t see anywhere to stop.  I should’ve planned out

how I use AI as an artist

A couple of years ago, I signed up for a trial to use an AI photo generator.  I was curious to see what kind of reference photos I could create with it.  I thought it might be a good tool for generating reference photos of subjects I don’t regularly have
