Okay, party people, I’m ready.
Are you??

If you want to check out my lamp makeover that I thought about while getting ready for the party, head over here to check it out.
First, let me introduce you to my newest sponsor (and dear friend)– Lauren of Lauren Cochran Photography.

Lauren has been a photographer since 2006, before she graduated from Troy University in Alabama.  After she and her husband spent several years in the Atlanta area, they’re back in Troy.  Rick is a campus minister, and Lauren’s bringing her fabulous talent back to Alabama!
Check out her awesome work…..

Lauren describes her style as photojournalistic and loves to capture everyday moments in natural light.
She shoots seniors, families, children,
engagements and weddings, but she’s available for events as well.  (I was pretty bummed when she was going to be out of town for Ava’s bday)
And, of course, I’m partial to these…
Be sure to check out “Proofing” on her website to see her most recent work…even some great ones of the boys in swim class this summer.
So, why all the fuss?? 
Well, first, Lauren’s super talented and one of my best friends.
Two….she’s offering a giveaway for my readers this week! 
Get this….a FREE ONE HOUR SESSION with her in Troy, Alabama!  Now, don’t be discouraged, you sweet out-of-towners, there’s something for you too!! 
She’s offering you a ONE HOUR COURSE IN CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHY AND EDITING!!  Yay…sign me up!!
To enter, just leave a comment after you’ve visited Lauren’s site!
To gain an additional entry, let me know you’re a follower (or become one if you’d like), and for another, tell your folks about it (facebook, twitter, blog, etc.)  Give yourself a separate comment for each entry!  Closes Monday night at midnight.
Good luck.  Now….
Let’s get this party started!  I can’t wait to see your creativity and recognize the top 10 on Monday or Tuesday!! (I’d be specific, but let’s be honest, sometimes I’m not the best with that, so thanks for your understanding!)
Remember, the rules are simple.  Home decor related projects only.  Furniture makeovers, crafts for the home, a room reveal, before and after…you get the idea.
Link on up and have an AWESOME weekend!  You’ll be hearing from me…
