Hahah!!!! Did you like my little rap!!!
I just have to start by saying THANK you to everyone who watched the show today!! SO thankful for you all and so happy to have you share this adventure with me! To the newcomers I just want to say WELCOME! So happy that you stopped by and said HI!!
If your new here you can read all about me and my little old blog by clicking the about me tab at the top. There you’ll find some photos of my hubby and my three babies:0) You’ll also find out why I blog and what this whole thing is all about! At A Place for Us I’m super laid back so you wont find me spamming your inbox or tweeting you all day about a painted wall…ok maybe sometimes:0) But for the most part you will see me just sharing my biggest passion and that is making a home for my family! Tons of DIY projects( just call me the project chick..ha!) ..occasionally I will make a craft, otherwise I’ll just be talking to you about my crazy life:0) I’m so glad you’re here!
If you would like to hear about my FIRST trip to the BIG apple and about my entire Nate Berkus Show experience you can read about it here.

I documented the entire trip in about FIVE parts…more on that HERE!
Oh and if your looking for those projects I shared with that cutie pie Nate, no need to worry…..
My brown paper flowers were a Pinterest sensation!!! I don’t know the exact number but its been pinned over 8,000 times. If it looks like something you would LOVE to try check it out!

Love the sign I made for Nate? I made some for my hallway over two years ago!
The tufted tray is also a favorite of mine!
For even more projects and a sneak at my home so far check out my Projects tab at the top and My Home! So glad you stopped by! If your thinking to yourself…”OMG I love this girl!!” just to let you now I’m thinking the SAME thing:0) I would love to get to know you more and be friends!!! So if I’m ever missing from my blog don’t hesitate to contact me via FACEBOOK or TWEET @ (aplaceforus) me. Oh and you know I’m on PINTEREST TOO!!
I am sure you are going to get tons of messages like this today, but you are aDORable! Just watched your segment on the Nate show and did a frantic search for your blog! I can’t wait to see all of your projects! I am in Ohio and we are supposed to get some snow tonight so you better believe that I am going to the store for some brown paper bags and extra glue sticks before the storm!!!
Hope to see you again on the show!!!
I love, love, LOVED your ideas on Nate! Searched for your blog immediately. I am definitely going to try the flowers and signs. Might make laundry a little more fun with a cute sign over the door 🙂 Loved how your ideas were inexpensive and dyi. So glad I caught the show today, can’t wait to read through your blog for some more great ideas!
Congrats on making your crafts such a hit!! I just love your style. I just saw the show and wanted to checkout your artwork. I already have an idea for a couple signs!! Blessings, Lisa

What did you use to put your flowers up on the wall?javascript:void(0)
Hi, I too just saw you on the Nate Show. I loved your house tour and the things you showed us on Nate, so decided to find your blog. You’ll probably get a LOT of subs from doing the show. Maybe he’ll have you on again, like he did/does with Mr.Goodwill Hunting. You did an amazing job. I’m glad I’ve found your blog.
I’m so bummed, I missed the show; but I know I can watch the episode probably next week on the internet. I just love your enthusiasm & spunk, so I know you did a wonderful job on the show. Kudos to you!

Hello! Do you have a step by step on how to do the wood paneled wall with a shelf on top? I would love to do that in my living room!
I saw you on the show, and I just love your blog and projects. I’m a diyer, myself, and while I’m pretty good at the actual construction, I am terrible with the design/color selection aspect of it, so I love reading through all your ideas! 🙂
Just saw you on my PVR’d Nate Berkus show and I can’t STAND how ADORABLE you are! Great job on the show, and your house is AMAZING! (I think I’ve already pinned like half of your blog! LOL) Great work, and I am now a HUGE fan and FOLLOWER!
