2013, already? This year has flown by and while I can't yet say that my blog has been around for a year, I can say I am that much closer (3 more months!). In the last 9 months I have had had 116 posts, which averages a post about every 2.5 days...not too bad! I would like to do better in the 2013, but with a lack of time, I am not sure how realistic that goal would be...we'll see. I thought I would start off the year with a quick recap of 2012's most popular posts.
We will start off with the DIY Dresser turned into a TV Console, which was not only the most popular DIY project, but the most popular post on my blog all together. It has had over 40,000 pins on pinterest (and I am assuming more, except for some reason my pin counts have totally stopped showing up...ugh), and my friends are constantly telling me they have seen it randomly on pinterest, pinned by their friends or someone they are following. It makes me really happy to have such an inspirational post! DIY can be really easy, and this is definitely one of those projects!
Also in the DIY category, the Refinished Farmhouse Hutch, and the DIY Tufted Ottoman made from a Pallet, were also extremely popular. In fact, in the last week the Ottoman project has blown up and become really popular. It might be a front runner for most popular of the new year...we shall see!
As for food posts, there were quite a few that were popular. The Artichoke Cheesy Bread was very popular around football season, and the Corn Fritters had a lot of attention when Chobani featured them on their blog! Also, my very last post of the year, 8 Great Dips for New Year's Eve, was super popular too...I think it was the timing 🙂
The other top food posts were:
Buffalo Quinoa Mac and Cheese with Broccoli
Low Carb Crab Cakes with Mustard Sauce
Braided Broccoli and Cheese Calzone
The Best Ever Banana Bread (or muffins!)
Greek Yogurt Strawberry Banana Bread
&
And our most popular drink post of 2012.....
