The Best of 2011...

I'm stealing today's blog post idea from Alycia over at The Curious Pug.  Here are some of my top seven posts of 2011...

Most Beautiful


I think that my post entitled "Love is..." was one of the truest posts I wrote this year, and for that reason I'm giving it the award of Most Beautiful as well.

Most Popular


The most popular post by far this year has been my "Messy Chunky Beach Waves Tutorial".  This post was really fun to put together and has received the most traffic of any of my other posts... mostly thanks to Pinterest and the 25000+ pins it received!

Most Controversial


I couldn't really come up with one for this category. However, if my vacuum could talk, I'm sure this would have been a controversial post....

Most Helpful


I helped a lot of blog owners create their own favicon in this post. But I also gave you a complete Photoshop beginner's guide to making a banner in this post.

A Post Whose Success Surprised Me


My bedroom tour seemed to be a hit. Of course I can't forget my tutorials that made their rounds on Pinterest, bringing in loads of traffic. In particular, my 8 Step Makeup Tutorial.

A Post I Feel Didn't Get the Attention It Deserved


This was a hard one to choose. But I think I'm going to have to go with my free Christmas Countdown Printable post.  I guess in a way I expected more of a response after spending all that time putting it together and letting it be available for free download.

Post I'm Most Proud Of


I love doing the tutorial posts for you guys, and it's always great to see such an awesome response. I think the ones I'm most proud of though are the posts where I can be completely honest and speak from the heart.  My "Hanging up my hat" post was just that, and I am proud of it as well as the decisions I made.

In closing, this year has been amazing so far. I am so happy that I decided to start blogging regularly back in July and am so grateful for all of your comments, follows, and just plain love. I'd love to know what type of posts are your favourite to read..?
