BLOG LOVE

While delayed in Logan Airport yesterday due to Snow Storm Saturn, or the Snowquester, or whatever the kids are calling it lately–I ran across homemade-modern.com and fell instantly in love with it.  Creative DIY Blogger, Ben Uyeda, has chronicled a series of awesome crafty projects for the home.

Ben seems to have cloned himself to optimize DIY productivity.

Here are a few of my favorites:
