Wow what a year it has been for DDD. I don’t even know where to begin. It’s seems like yesterday I was just writing a recap for 2011 and thinking about what would be in store for 2012. The last 365 days of this blog have surpassed any expectations and it has been a pure joy to be here (almost) every day sharing new projects and inspirations with you.
So as we wind down the year here at DDD, I thought I’d share the most popular projects from 2012.
For the record, Baby E’s Nursery, my Pretty N’ Pink Tutu, and Burlap Holiday Pillows were technically in the top 10 most viewed projects this year, but since we are wrapping up 2012 I wanted to keep this post to top 10 to projects completed in this year. Hope you don’t mind!
So here we go, drum roll please…
Here are the Top 10 Design, Dining + Diapers Projects of 2012, chosen by YOU!

10. Drab to Fab Tray Transformation

And lastly, many of these projects wouldn’t have been as popular as they were if it wasn’t for all of the amazing blogs that have sent people my way. I want to give a huge thank you to my Top 10 Referring Blogs of 2012. Thank you for featuring my work, hosting great link parties and being so supportive.

I absolutely love the coffee filter wreath. Gorgeous! Though, all of your projects are pretty swell.
I love how you mix wood and white paint everywhere in your house – its just gorgeous and totally what I would like in my dream home… once it gets there… think you could make a little stop up here and redo mine? If I had to pick a favorite, I think it would be the tray, I love it!
You know I love all of your projects! If I had to pick a fav it would be your gorgeous family room makeover. It was fabulous down to every little detail. have to say I’m surprised that I don’t see your AMAZING Fall porch on here, it was one of my favorites for sure! Happy New Year, Taryn!
Your projects are always so beautiful & creative! I look forward to seeing what you do in 2013!!I seriously need to make me an eye chart wall art pronto. I’m hosting a Best of 2012 Showcase Party if you’d like to swing by and link up your favorite posts/projects of the year! No need to brush your hair or even throw on a party dress;)

These all look wonderful! My favorite is the tray – it’s beautiful.
I host a link party every Thursday – I’d love you have you join and share this.
Thank you for the great post!
