First Blogiversary Day 1: New Layout and Survey!

Happy Monday, everyone! I am so happy to announce that this is a very special week here on the blog… Wednesday will be my one year anniversary of my very first post! So naturally I figured a week-long celebration was in order. Shall we start with a schedule of events? :)

Let’s kick off day 1! First things first, you probably noticed the site looks totally different today! Celebration #1: Blog makeover!  I have wanted to do this for a while so I figured blogiversary week was the perfect time to launch the new look. AND I LOVE IT! For those of you who are curious, the original theme I used was Socialike by elemis and made all modifications myself. I am still tweaking a few things so bear with me if things look a bit wonky for a few days! :)

Celebration #2: A super quick survey and an opportunity to ask me any questions you have! The survey is very short/easy (I promise you will be done in less than 2 minutes), totally anonymous, and gives me an opportunity to know you (my readers) a little bit better. I would really appreciate you taking a few seconds to fill it out so I know how people feel about the goings-on here at Our Cozy Cubbyhole.

Finally, I am giving you the amazing privilege (haha sarcasm…) to ask me anything! Want to know when I find time to blog/do projects? Want to know Bo’s most embarrassing moments? Want to know why I put our lives out there on the internet? Now’s your chance to ask!

I will recap all results and answers to your questions on Friday!  The survey/question form will stay open until Thursday night.

Okay… it’s survey time!  Thank you for helping me out!

Two Little Monday Details

First things first, I am so so so happy to announce the winner of the signed Nate Berkus book giveaway:

Kristen @ Popcorn on the Stove

Congratulations Kristen! She will be receiving an autographed copy of “The Things That Matter” via super fun snail mail this week. However, just because the rest of you didn’t win doesn’t mean you should forget about this book. Go pick up a copy or visit the library because it is worth the read.

The next order of business is to remind you that I am joining a fun link-up party over at Decor and the Dog called Dare To DIY!In order to share my DIY holiday adventures, I will be attempting to join in each week with a new project. My “Be Thankful” project was Friday’s DIY “I Am Thankful For You” cards. So head on over to the link partyand check out some awesome DIY Thanksgiving ideas.

I Need More Hours in a Day…

…to use outside of work of course! ;)

So I had big plans to have a rockin’ blog project this week and life decided to get in the way. I was out sick yesterday and now I am playing catch-up so it likely won’t be happening today. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!

In the meantime, don’t forget to enter our first blog giveaway: a SIGNED copy of Nate Berkus’ new book “The Things That Matter.” You only have 3 days left!! Get on it… the book is beautiful! :)
