The year 2022 was my first year as a home blogger. We accomplished so many DIY home projects it blows my mind.

This year Jeremy worked a demanding job and I simultaneously homeschooled an elementary student, middle schooler, and high schooler, We didn’t always have a lot of time to put towards home renovations, but I’ve learned that small projects can go a long way. Here are some of Pure Happy Home’s most popular of 2022, along with a few of my favorites.
