This Sunday I thought I would pop in and share a few projects from the Bower Power archives that are fun, easy and can be done uber quick! I know that most of you probably don’t have the time to dig through five years worth of old posts…so me pulling some of these gems out from over the years is like cliff notes. And heaven knows how many folks depend on those to get through higher education 🙂
Easy way to update cheap frames
Turning a sheet into a shower curtain
Honey Vanilla Chamomile Headache Pillows
Spraypaint something…like a deer head
So now the question is in your ball court…do you like recaps like this? waste of time? you’ve read all the archives already so this is all repeat posts in your book? Should this be a regular Sunday event? Because I have to admit…saying Sunday Funday is really quite smile-inducing 🙂
YES!!! keep ’em coming! Sunday-Funday for LIFE! 🙂
Avid, dedicated reader and I liked this recap post- keep ’em coming!
I enjoyed this post. Even though I’ve seen some of these projects before, some were new to me. Plus it is nice to have a bunch of project ideas in one place.
I’ve read all of these posts but I still liked this because it refreshed my memory. Keep it!
I liked this post!!
I hadn’t seen some of them at all but thanks to your round up I was able to catch them.
Totally fun! I hadn’t seen the post about updating frames and it’s oh so timely for my current project.
Can’t stand them, sorry to say! I use Digg reader to follow blogs, so there’s little-to-no chance of “missing” a post, and I personally find it aggravating to have to scroll through a mile of links to things I have already read. I think the posts being linked to are amazing and great, I just don’t need to see them show up in my feed more than once!
Love them!
I like it! Especially since a lot of these projects are new to me since they were from before I started reading your blog.
This is very useful! I haven’t read all your posts sice I found you just over a year ago, so these are great! Keep reposting them 🙂
Yes! I like this! I didn’t know about a couple of these projects.
Love it
Yes, keep em coming!
I love this! Definitely would like to see this become a regular feature.
I remembered all these as an avid reader. I don’t mind these posts. But what about Words from Will and Weston? I love Sherry and John’s Conversations with Clara …
How about once a month rather than weekly? I like the refreshers, too, but might get bored seeing re-runs once a week…..
Love this post! I had forgotten about a lot of these and saw at least two that I want to try now vs when you posted them the first time. I vote to keep Sunday Funday!
Sure, why not? I’ve read most of them, but it’s still fun to be reminded of projects easy enough that even I could do. Plus I had missed the older ones (like the frames).
I love it! I Only discovered your blog around 6 months ago so these are all new to me! Plus your Sunday is my Monday (I’m in Australia) so I need something to get me out of my Monday blues!
Love them. Maybe shorter so less annoying for others. Or in a collage so less length. But I think it’s a fun reminder. Could also do the evolution of a room or style. Like your dining rooms. And past valentines day posts all on one place.
This was awesome! I know you have so much in those 5 years. You could easily made this like a monthly Blast from the DIY Past post.
Yes please keep them coming! I now have inspiration for a gallery wall that I was feeling discouraged with 🙂
I like this feature! To be honest, it is kind of difficult to navigate your archives, so as a relatively new reader I haven’t read some of the way back stuff.
Funday indeed! I read your blog regularly but like someone else said it was nice to have a reminder of things and to see the things that you wrote before I started reading. Great idea!
Thanks for sharing!
Love the sticker art. I must have missed that one!

Yes!!! keep em coming!! xoxo ,Chelsea
Yes, I think it is a great idea. Fun to see some of the things I had forgotten!
LOVE!
I’ve browsed through the archives TONS and haven’t seen 3 of the 8 projects mentioned. I’ve already got another tab opened with the ones I haven’t yet viewed. 🙂

I think this would be great for an extra post on Sundays.!
Awesome! I loved the sticker art! Don’t know how I missed that one! I’m an avid reader of your blog!
Yes! I like this idea because a lot of the projects you listed I have not seen before. Yeay for Sunday funday!
I think posts like this are fun! I HATE working on weekends though, so when you asked if you should make this a regular post, I’m thinking no because I don’t want you to have to work on weekends! Friday Funday instead?
i like it- would love to be inspired by things i can make to pretty my house. 🙂
I like it!! I haven’t seen a few of those and I read all the time!
Yes, please keep ’em coming
Love these typem
I like it!
I like the idea of seeing past projects. Even though I’ve read them all sometime you forget! But I think once a week would be too much. Maybe one a month or so?
Love the round up of old posts! Definitely keep them coming!
Keep the Cliff notes coming!
I’m really not a fan of recap posts… I come here looking for something new!
I like it! I’ve only been reading your blog for a year and a half so some of the projects were new to me.
Hi Katy,
I followed the link for the headache pillows and realized that you got it from Darby Stickler!
Sounds like you might know her personally? I really miss her blog. Every so often I still check to see if she has posted anything new…. If you talk to her, please tell her that a crazy lady in Canada who she has never met misses her 😉
I have never met her in real life but that girl is amazing. She is on Instagram and pretty active on Pinterest too so definitely follow her!

I really like this post. I can just skip the one’s I allready read right?
I do remember when you spraypainted that beautiful globe tough, it really made me scream noooooo! to my computer. I really like the authentic old stuff 😉
Absolutely! Just skip anything you don’t wanna read!

I love this Sunday edition idea! I’ve been reading forever, and have spent my fair share of time perusing archives and this is still a wonderful idea. Love it!
Love it! It’s like a seasonal reminder! KEep ’em coming!
I like the round-up. I had never seen three of those posts. I especially like the idea of putting tea leaves in the rice heating bag. I love my rice bag but I’m not fond of the rice smell. Think I’ll have to get my seam ripper out and add some tea leaves 🙂
I love those too! I think they are so cute but I’m afraid that Will isn’t nearly as creative as Clara is verbally. He does say alot of funny and cute things (that Jer and I laugh at) but things that other people would think are funny? Maybe like two posts worth 🙂

Love this! Yet ANOTHER post to read instead of working…keep them coming!
I love this idea. All thumbs up.
Is your Succulent garden/terrarium still alive?
Yup…although they have gotten really leggy…I guess I’ll have to search how to avoid that problem!
