found & foraged link party no. 8

welcome to this week's found & foraged party! i'm so glad you're here!

F O L L O W U S A T

last week's party took me in some directions on the web that i don't usually go. we had such diverse projects and blogs link up, that i actually spent a little longer than usual getting lost in them.

sometimes i get glassy-eyed at design projects because i've seen sooooooo many of them, so it was interesting and fun for me to take a bit of a turn from the norm. and truly, found & foraged doesn't have to be all houses and design all the time. i think it's about an attitude of ingenuity, creativity, and curation that extends across many genres. so i hope you'll enjoy seeing a few things i don't usually write about here at ASD- from gifts and parties for kids, to homemade donuts, to make-up tips and pantry organization (you're likely to never see that one here, heh).

before & after pantry makeover by chocolate and sunshine

this is the before picture of some deep cleaning and pantry organization she did that is quite inspiring (not gonna lie to you, my pantry looks worse than this as we speak), where she ended up with beautiful results AND proved her blog is aptly named. nice work, dana!
