Well, I’ve been home from Snap ~ Creativity at your Fingertips for almost a month! Then two weeks ago I attended a just as amazing blog conference put on by the amazing Collective Bias team ~ SoFabCon. I’m running out of time to get everything posted. So I decided to break some blogging etiquette & blog about both conferences in one post!
I know you’ve probably read a gazillion recap post so far, so I thought I’d do mine a little differently ~ plus there’s a blog conference swag giveaway! Yay! First I’m going to share 20+ totally random (& some not even blog related) things that I’ve learned at both of these ah-mazing blogging conferences. Here we go! ;)

DIY Herb Garden {tutorial} #digin #ad
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Home Depot. I am thrilled to be working with The Home Depot this spring to improve our home & garden. #DigIn #ad
Last week I told you about our DIY Herb Garden that we are making as a family! I’m excited to say that we had wonderful weather this past week, & we were able to finish staining our herb garden. Then yesterday we were able to get all of our herbs planted! Yay! Today I’m excited to share how we made our DIY Herb Garden, so that YOU can make one, too! :)
UPDATE: I stained my wood. A few readers expressed concern about this step. If you are worried about the stain leaking into your soil & herbs then simply skip this step or use a non-toxic stain. I did not stain the inside of my boxes so I wasn’t too concerned about it, but that’s just me. ;) This year I’m actually planning on doing a flower garden instead of herbs! I’ll update soon! ;)
