The whirlwind that was October has come to a close. It might have been my busiest month ever on the blog and at home. I am not sure what I was thinking committing to 31 days straight of original posts, meanwhile wrapping up the first Define Your Style class. All the while, keeping up my family and school volunteering commitments…phew! But, I did it…yay!
I wrote 32 posts in 31 days! I am really proud of this Interior Styling series. If you haven’t read through them all yet, what are you waiting for?! They are packed with real advice on how to create a pretty and practical home.

I’ve never commented on your blog before, but I just wanted to say that out of all the blogs I read that participated in the 31 Days challenge, I enjoyed yours the most. I learned the most from yours and really appreciated the time and effort you took to make it such a worthwhile month-long series. Please keep up the awesome blogging!
Meagan, Wow! What an amazing compliment…thank you. Your sweet note just made the last 31 days so worth it!!!
Wait a minute–I thought there were actually two Jackie’s doing all this stuff! Just kidding–you are incredible. I’ll be your hubby is glad to have you back for November. =)I LOVE all the tips I learned from this series! Thank you! As a side note, I just noticed the framed money you have in your bedroom. LOVE it! We might have to do that. =)That’s a classy way to display memorabilia. Enjoy the beginning of November in your beautifully styled home!
Melissa, Two Jackies would be awesome and scary at the same time :) I will post more about the framed currency soon.
This was a fantastic series! I found something in everyone of the posts. Thanks so much for the great information but also the time and effort in putting this together. Hope their is installment #2.
Maribeth, Thank you so much. I plan to continue adding to the Interior Styling series mixed in with other DIY and decorating posts!
I agree with Meagan (and Melissa and Meribeth). This was the most substantial and one of the most professional- looking series that I saw from all the various blogs that I followed this month. You clearly spent a lot of time putting all these posts together and I learned a lot from each one. Thank you for sharing your vision with us and thanks for all the hard work you put in over the last month. BTW, I’ve been following your blog for a long time now and always enjoy your posts.
Anne, Thank you so much. It means so much to me that you thought so highly of this series!
Jackie- I also really loved this series. You did a great job and your hard work was evident in the informative, beautiful posts. I took a lot away from this series and always love learning from you!
Way to go Jackie! You pulled off a fantastic series. I really enjoyed it and found some great inspiration. Thank you!
