Although this blog is newer to me, I already love it for its beautiful projects and photos. Whenever I check out the tutorials and house tour, I am always inspired. And the best part?

Nesting Place

Besides loving the Nester because she's the Nester, I admire her because she is a fellow renter who loves where she currently lives. She has created a beautiful home and embraces simplicity, which is something I adore. Her solution for a renter's kitchen backsplash is brilliant, and yes, it involves hot glue!
