Centsational Girl

I’m THRILLED that I can finally let the proverbial cat out of the bag! Are you ready? Here it is…

 I (Shannon) am a new Contributor to Kate’s uber popular blog, Centsational Girl!

{Insert squeal here! … Sorry – that’s totally unprofessional! … Composure regained! … Moving on.}

I have read Kate’s blog for AGES. As many of you know Kate used to be a lawyer and for the last several years has blogged about DIY & Design on a dime from her home in sunny California. Her home and projects have been featured in many magazines and she has been on Nate (more than once!). Kate also writes a blog column for Better Homes and Gardens called Centsational Style.

SO, needless to say, when she asked me to become a contributor for Centsational Girl, I was over the moon.  Okay, not literally. But I was very flattered and very happy to accept.

Our first post went up today, so if you haven’t visited Centsational Girl yet today, please click on over to read all about Creating an Inviting Outdoor Conversation Area.
