Introducing Stardust - Decor & Style

Hello "The Inspired Collection" readers! I feel so excited to be blog swapping with Kelli and meeting all of you today! So please allow me to introduce myself first. My name is Olga from Stardust - Decor & Style, I'm married to the love of my life and we have two great kiddos. I quit my job in a shipping company two years ago and after a while we bought our current house.
Since then... I'm in continuous search of finding treasures in the blogland!  And my blog is all about that as well as DIY, decoration, makeovers and transformations, house tours and everything beautiful!
S t a r d u s t   -  Decor & Style
So, wanna see some Before & Afters shots of my own projects that you can find in my blog? Well, here we go...
BEFORE
AFTER
Total cost of the whole transformation: less than $100.00 (except for the light fixture which was somewhat expensive... but couldn't resist it...you feel me right?)!
The hallway 
(sorry, just this photo of one of the walls)
                                                                            BEFORE
                                                                             AFTER
See what the power of paint can do? And this project didn't cost anything at all. The paint was leftovers from previous paint jobs which I mixed all together. And there you have it! I loooooove horizontal stripes! If you all enjoyed the post, then please hop in to my blog for more pics and tutorials of the projects where you could also check my balcony update or give me some of your ideas for my living room. Leaving a sweet comment would make me happy! And if you decide to  become friends... well this would really brighten up my day! Thank You Kelli for having me here today! Merry Christmas to all of you and your families!                  xoxo Photobucket

Today I am swapping places with LB from A Step in the Journey! Her blog is so cute and full of great projects! After you learn a little about her hop on over to her page and say hi to me and take a look around! 


Hello friend!! I am SUPER excited to be here today at The Inspired Collection But first, I must remember my manners & thank the EXTRAORDINARY, Kelli for having me.  It's truly an honor to be here!
I'm Laura Beth from A Step in the Journey, but my friends call me LB.  It's great to meet you! My little space in the blogosphere is a "jack of all trades, (but master of none)" kind of blog.  Here are a few of my most favorite posts that detail my adventures in the following... crafting: Oh the Places We'll Go  This project was for our first anniversary!  And after our recent trip to San Francisco I need to add another button.
  or what about a few Christmas Canvases??
I also LOVE to create a good printable...here are two of my favorites:

Anyone like furniture restoration?? I consider that in the crafting realm.
and what about a bathroom renovation
photography: I hosted a Photography Challenge every Thursday, and learned SO much to sharpen my skills.
Each week had a theme, for example BLACK & WHITE!
cooking:
My adventures as a newlywed, trying to keep her husband fed. A few specialties...
 a little Chicken Fried Rice, anyone???
life:
Some of which currently includes Auburn football and my husband
and the marvelous tales of our sweet dog Max! 
(unless he gives you the evil eye because you've been photographing him for 20 minutes) 
Merry Christmas!!
I would LOVE it if you would stop by sometime!! 
It's quite an entertaining journey :)
Thanks again Kelli for inviting me over! Stop by and see what Kelli shared with us today!!
