The Shabby Nest
Just to prove my point........OK.....doesn't this look like a Pottery Barn photo? Well it's not.........it's her boy's bedroom. I could just die over those head boards. SHE MADE THEM! Visit her site and she'll tell you how. Just tell me that they are not the ones making the beds? I don't think I can take it.
Simple, cute, perfect!
She also takes us through her daughters room. How brilliant is this? Using Barbie clothes to make art? I know.......I'm speechless too.
Her house didn't have a mud room..........Poor Wendy........with 4 children, she needed one. So instead of whining about it, she figured it out and made one out of an older closet. I'm thinking this is a good woman to have around when you need to make lemonade.
And you all know how I love chalk board doors? (and red one's too......send me a photo of your red door) 
Looking through her beautiful rooms, I couldn't help feel that surge of jealousy and since I had just cleaned my scraproom.....feeling pretty crafty........I muttered to myself "oh yea? well I bet she isn't crafty"
WRONG! She makes cute things like this and scrapbooks. She seems perfect.........
Wendy, please show me a mess..........then we can be friends.
Don't sulk like me, please head over and smother her new blog with all kinds of bloggy love. I'll get over myself soon enough.

I want to be Wendy when I grow up!! :)
Wow! It makes me want a random closet to make into a mud room!! Thanks for sharing all of these wonderful blogs!! Fabulous ideas!!
Uhhh... Wendy? Have you considered publishing your own collection of magazines, starring in your own TV series, or designing your own line of home decor accessories???
YOU ARE INCREDIBLY TALENTED!
Kim, thanks so much for continually bringing us such informative and inspirational sites. You are Super Woman.
Keep 'em coming!

I think Wendy may be my new friend! :) Let me go meet her!!
Man, you've got to stop this! As if my blog list wasn't long enough! Love her style! Thanks, I think.
Nooooo...there can't be women this perfect in the world...it's just not fair. There should only be one Martha Stewart...but dang it, Wendy is so giving MS a run for her money! (My jaw is hanging over the beds/boys room...still! LOL)
Love love the barbie art!
So simple and yet super cute and inexpensive! Great idea!

I am adoring your posts of so many talented people! It gives me great material for my daydreams of someday becoming a domestic goddess!

Blog Love!!!!
Oooh! I think I love me some Wendy! Thanks for the new link!!
Great Blog. I love all the neat decorating ideas and I too adore Barn stars. Thanks for pointing her out!!!
OMG, love her home decor!! I just love what you're doing here with your blog... one of my fave daily reads for sure!!
What a great site! Thanks for sharing this one!
Don't worry, I have plenty of mess at my place if you need a friend. Wow, can't wait to go look over at her blog. My goal is to curtail my bedlam enough so that I can start showing you some of my "creative" things and then I know I will be "big" too...give me a few more months. I am getting there.:)My goal was to show my "real friends" how real I was. The problem now is that my real friends don't read and the new blog friends think I am looney...hee heee.
YAHOO!! Wendy is my older sister (has been since birth=) ) and yes she really is that amazing. I am just glad she's finally getting credit for it. When she was in highschool she made her boyfriend a quilt for Christmas. A QUILT!! What teenager does that?
Oh my- I know Wendy threatens those boys or she is married to a Marine to keep those rooms so clean. Rooms are beautiful!
Another creative gal - and her house looks like that with 4 kids? She must be superwoman. Can I borrow her for a day, or a week? Love the framed Barbie clothes - great idea!
Yep... that one's a delight! Thanks for sharing.
Wow! What wonderful ideas!
Um...I bet that it's dusty behind her toilet! Now we don't have to hate her..!
I'm about to head to her blog right now! The photos of hers you posted are perfect! Can i please be Wendy when i grow up??
I just discovered her today from another's blog and I instantly added her to my favorites. She is just too incredible!!!!!
Another good one, thanks!
are those BUTTONS or magnets!!! would you consider doing a giveaway of the bee one or any of them? too cool!!!
I actually cleaned house for a lady like this. I never, ever figured out why she paid me. It was already perfect every time and she also had four children. Thanks for the view. Cherrie
Thanks for showing Wendy to us, she is great! Oh, and I have been lurking for awhile but wanted to say how much I like this site, thanks!
