Creating with the Stars



Awhile back I entered Owen's room into the Creating with the Stars Challenge.  I really never thought I would be selected, but I MADE IT!!  Whaaatt??  Little old me??   There was some serious talent competing to enter this online challenge.  Do you recognize any of these faces?


These are some of the top DIY bloggers on the internet, and East Coast Creative has teamed up each contestant with one of these stars!  Teams were randomly selected.  See number #11?  That is Kari from U-Create, and she will be mentoring me every step of the way.

At first I thought I was a bit on the crazy side for entering.  I have read nothing but how crazy and stressful these things are where insanely talented bloggers are battling each other to win the DIY Championship title in blogland.  It's like Hunger Games on DIY steroids.  For real.  Am I ready for this???  I mentioned to Kari I wanted to vomit, and I still feel that way.  I don't think I could ever accurately describe the nervousness I have been experiencing these last few days.  I'm still shocked.  But I have to push through this and focus.  I HAVE TO WIN, right?!

This week is about upcycling, so I will be spending my time do something cool.  I promise.  Along with that, I have a quilt top that is due this week.   I may be MIA this week, and that is why.  Voting will begin this Saturday at East Coast Creative, but all entries are submitted anonymously.  This means YOU will not know which project is mine!  This keeps it fair since I have a low following and my competitors have thousands.  Wish me luck y'all!

Please click here if you want to see who I am competing against.  They are all seriously awesome, and you may find a new blog to follow!

*If you take a second to answer my one question poll, that would be awesome!
