One of the things I love most about blogging is getting to know other professional creatives. I seriously have some of the most gifted and talented friends and lately those friends have been stepping it up a notch and sharing their gifts in print! Jamin and Ashley from the blog The Handmade Home just released an ebook entitled Handmade Walls, and I get to be the one to tell you all about it!
So what’s this book about and what will it teach you? Well, if you have ever struggled with your home—struggled to make it feel more genuine—more like you, then this book is for you! Handmade Walls contains 22 projects and over 250 pages of inspiration, creations, and plans for making your walls come to life. It’s available for $9.95 in a simple easy-to-use PDF format. Just click, download, and read. And if you have any questions, Ashley & Jamin will be there to help you. What I love most about the book is that it offers you a springboard for making your home your own by teaching you tips and tricks for decorating your walls.
The book is divided into three main sections: Frames, Art, and Functional. It builds on your personal skill level and has an easy breezy learning curve. Every plan in the book comes complete with step-by-step illustrations, photography, a cut and supplies list, price bracket, difficulty level, and time required for each project. I love this because you know exactly what you’re diving into before you even begin! So whether you’re a DIY novice, weekend warrior, or just someone who appreciates a fun read, it’s Jamin and Ashley’s deepest hope that you’ll enjoy something you’ve created just for you. So shake off those fears and love your sanctuary as you create it!
I think Handmade Walls would make a great Christmas gift for yourself or for any fellow DIY enthusiast! If you’d like to purchase a copy for $9.95, simply click on the button below and then click “Add to Cart”.

There isn’t a single wall in my house that doesn’t need SERIOUS help!! It’s like a blank slate!

Let’s just say that I haven’t hung a thing in my home since I moved. I’m completely nervous about doing something wrong that I just haven’t done anything at all. I guess the living room would be the first place to start!

I think a better question for me would be, “What walls *don’t* need help?”. My family room walls are pretty sad, though, so I’ll say those need the most help.
