We were on the phone the other day doing that thing that sisters do where we are able to talk about approximately 1,763 topics in the course of 30 minutes and yet when we hang up realize that there are still subjects we haven’t covered.
But, somewhere in the midst of those 1,763 topics we talked about someone very special. Someone who we value deeply and want them to know how much we appreciate them. Someone to whom we want to give the opportunity to shine.
Do you want to know who it was?
It was YOU!
We were talking about how sometimes in relationships things get a tad off-kilter. A bit one-sided even.
Here we are sharing all of our projects and we never get to see any of YOURS!
So, we decided it is time to bring some balance to this relationship.
We know that there are so many of you who are creative and talented. You have amazing projects you’ve completed for your home or your yard but you just don’t have a place to show them off.
And we want to give you that place!
How would you like to ‘Strut Your Stuff‘ here At the Picket Fence?
Because we want to show you off!
So, are you a non-blogger with an awesome home project you’ve completed that you would love to share?
We want to see it!
STRUT YOUR STUFF ~ Summer Edition
Send a photo (or photos!) of your completed summer OUTDOOR project to atthepicketfence@gmail.com
Include your name, the state where you’re located and a brief description of your project.
Deadline for submission is August 15.
We will be selecting projects to share here on the blog as well as on the At the Picket Fence Facebook Page.
We can’t wait to see all of your fantastic ideas and inspiration.
But, mostly, we are just so excited to get this one-sided relationship evened out and give YOU the chance to shine here At the Picket Fence!
Do you accept knitting projects? I have knitted and felted several handbags and I would like to show them off. I’m not sure I can get them on-line, but I would do my best with a little help from my friends (your’s and mine).

This is such a cool idea, Heather and Vanessa! How like the two of you to want to show off the work of someone who doesn’t normally get a place to “shine” online. I imagine there will be lots of folks who want to strut their stuff here ATPF!
Hey sweet girls!
Just checking in to say that I’m bored with me and would rather see what YOU’RE up to! 😉
XOXO

LOVE this idea! I just recently moved from Michigan to Florida and don’t have any outdoor projects to share but think its a great idea. I’d love to participate in the future if you decide to do it again. I look forward to seeing what people submit.
Thanks, Kathleen
Hi Kathleen! We’re planning on doing this again throughout the year so definitely be watching for more opportunities! 🙂
GREAT IDEA!!!
What a great idea, ladies !! Too bad all I have to strut are boxes, LOL !! But, I look forward to being inspired by everyone else !!
Can’t wait to see the outside spaces…I miss having one in the SF apartment (so I compensate with plants and fresh flowers 🙂
My sister and I have the same sort of relationship. Aren’t we lucky???
