I asked 31 bloggers the same 35 questions for my 31Days Series.
Here are their answers:
On Facebook, my main activity revolves around blogger groups. They.Are.Awesome. Mainly just answering each others questions and such and I have met so many great, creative people through them.
Elisha from Pneumatic Addict Furniture is one of them. I knew pretty soon after she popped up in my feed that she would be one I would stalk regularly. She is constantly whipping up new tutorials, always amazing me how she will make items, concrete countertops anyone?
