I am thrilled with how this birthday craft adventure turned out. Some of these were super simple. Some were much more involved. Some I already painted over (the color scheme in the finger painting no longer worked for me and I wanted the canvas). Some I'll be hanging on to for years. Some will be kept forever (I'd lose my mind if that blanket was destroyed). Twenty-six will always be remembered as the year Paul deployed for the first time and the year I made a lot of stuff.
Here are the links for each project and I starred my favorites.

It's been really fun sharing here on the blog over the past year. I got a comment a few weeks ago if I'd no longer be blogging DIYs after I turned 27. Of course I will! They were here before and will continue now. Stay tuned for more information about my next birthday project. I'm really excited and can't believe I have to wait a week to make something. 😉
enJOY it
