First of all, a huge thanks to all of you who shared your opinions about my Craigslist credenza dilemma yesterday - you are simply the smartest, most creative, and thoughtful of blog friends! Your ideas were just what I needed to help me sort out the direction that I want to go with the furniture in our office. Not that I won't change my mind another 30 times over the weekend, but really...I think I'm getting there!
And since it's the last Friday of May, it's time to share your favorite project of the month by linking up to Best of the Nest! Big or small, it doesn't matter - we all want to see what you've been up to!

As usual, Pam, Lisa, Jennifer, and I will get the party started by sharing the best projects from our nests:

When I remodeled my youngest daughter's room this past month, something needed to be done with her eyesore of a closet that had two ugly flat, hollow doors. Instead of replacing the doors, I added panel molding in a fun, geometric pattern to give her closet a new, updated look! You can find the before & after and easy DIY tutorial {here}.

Pam finished up an amazing makeover of her kitchen this month with so many gorgeous details (check out her finished space {here}) but the showstopper is this DIY metal range hood. Can you believe that she transformed her dated hood into this beauty with just some paint, PVC strips, and nailheads?! Hop over to Pam's post {here} to see how it all went down.

You know how we all used to have those big TV armoires to hold our ginormous 2' deep TVs? So, what do you do with them now that you have a flat screen? Follow Lisa's lead and turn your armoire into a fabulous bar cabinet! From the maps lining the back to the mirrors inside the doors and the cork tray under the bottles, this is one fabulous piece for entertaining! Check out all of these fun details and more {here}

Inspired by expensive lacquered boxes she saw at one of her favorite home stores, Jennifer recreated the look for a whole lot less (in her signature green color of course!). Hop over to her post {here} for the easy DIY instructions and to see her boxes' new home (hint: Jennifer has some of the best styled bookshelves around!).
So now it's your turn to show us the best from your nest - whether it's a DIY project, a room makeover, a craft, or a fabulous new recipe, if it's your favorite thing you've done around your nest this May, we want to see it! And when you link up on one of our blogs, your link will show up on all four of them.
Not a blogger? You can still join in the fun! Enter through Instagram by using the hashtag #bestofthenestparty and tagging at least one of the link party hosts:

or upload your "best of" images to Pinterest and link back to them using the linky tool (tutorial {here}).
And just a few reminders:
- Link to your specific post, not your home page
- Only one link per person to your best work of this month (May '14)
- Spread some comment love! Visit and comment on at least two other links in the party
- If you're linking up from a blog, link back to the Best of the Nest with a text link or button link:
- Be sure to stop back by next Friday when Lisa, Pam, Jennifer, and I will each feature some of our favorite links from the party! For those linking from blogs, only posts that have a link back to Best of the Nest will be considered.
