2022 Wrap Up: Our Top Ten Posts

One of the things we like to do at the end of every year is to go back and see which posts were our most popular. It helps us to plan what to write about in the future, too. So yesterday I went into our 2022 analytics and pulled up our top ten posts…and here there are:

10. Spring Home Tour at Danielle’s

Danielle's traditional Southern spring home tour | 11 Magnolia Lane

My dear friend Danielle is so talented–she has a beautifully decorated home that she’s shared with us several times over the years, and she also has a very successful booth where she sells antiques and decor. One of her spring home tours is our tenth most popular post of the year.

Part 1 of the her spring home tour is here, you can find her previous home tours {HERE}, and her Facebook page is {HERE}.

9. How to DIY an Expensive-Looking Christmas Garland

This is always a popular post around the holidays. Amy shows us how to dress up an inexpensive faux evergreen garland to make it look like a million bucks.

8. Before and Afters From My IPL Treatment

We really write about everything on this blog–to prove that point, two of our top ten posts are about my experiences with aesthetic procedures. I shared how my IPL treatment went, and that post was #8 last year.

7. Our Favorite Gray/White/Neutral Paint Colors

It’s so much easier to choose paint colors when you can see how they look in “real” rooms ahead of time. Our favorite gray and neutral paint colors gets lots of search traffic and was #7 last year.

6. How to Pleat Curtains for a Custom Look

2019 Holiday Home Tour - Annabelle's Nutcracker Bedroom

All of my drapes are packed up right now and in storage, and we are figuring out where to put down roots now that my husband is retiring from the military. But when we finally have a new house to hang them in, you can believe that I’ll be using this easy hack once again to make inexpensive IKEA curtains look like custom drapes!

5. Our New Home–Small Laundry Room With Vintage Touches

This post is a blast from the past as it shows the laundry room in our Nashville house (we lived there from 2011-2013). My taste has definitely changed since then, but I still love a chandelier in unexpected rooms like laundry rooms, powder rooms, pantries, closets, etc. This room was also one of our first magazine features. It was small but so cute!

4. Painting Kitchen Cabinets–Selecting a Paint Color

Like I mentioned earlier, everyone loves to see paint colors in real spaces before choosing a color. This post about how to select a color and paint cabinets is what we call “evergreen” content, because year after year, people keep reading it.

3. How to {Safely} Remove That Large, Builder Bathroom Mirror

How to safely remove a large bathroom mirror that is glued on the wall.

A few years ago, the trend in bathrooms changed from having one huge mirror to having individual mirrors over each sink. Home builders, however, still put up a big sheet or mirror because it’s less expensive. This post tells you how to remove those mirrors without cutting yourself to ribbons, and shows the before and after in Amy’s own master bathroom.

2. Before and Afters From My Morpheus 8 Treatment

Before and afters from my Morpheus 8 procedure | 11 Magnolia Lane

Our number two post of 2022 is my experience with the Morpheus microneedling treatment and all the photos before, during, and after. One reason I think this post is so popular is that when I had my treatments, Morpheus was still pretty new, and so there weren’t that many posts about it for people searching for information.

  1. Built-In Bookshelves From IKEA Billy Bookcases–How to Do It
How to build a faux wall of built-in bookcases using IKEA billy bookshelves to create beautiful shelving. Full tutorial and how to do it in this post.

Our #1 post from last year is Amy’s tutorial for DIYing your own library-style built ins from simple IKEA Billy bookcases. We’ve both done projects like this in previous houses and it adds great style (and value) for such a small investment. If you have an office, living room, or bedroom that needs a little extra TLC, this is a great weekend project.

As the New Year approaches, we wish you all the best for 2023!
