Before They Were Bloggers…Guess These DIY Faces Contest!

What a FUN contest I have for you today! It is quite embarrassing but we are all adults right? haha. Check out all of these way awkward photos from our younger days and see if you can recognize your favorite bloggers.  These are the pictures I try and block out of my memory, and apparently my mom too because she had to look 3 times to find me! hahaha.

Let’s take a ride in that DeLorean parked outside and go back in time. Back to a time before there was Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter. Before chevrons, mercury glass and ombré were hot. And most importantly, before there were blogs!

We’re going back to when these DIY gals were worrying about how high they could get their hair, was there food in their braces and oh no…not another zit! Talking on the phone for hours meant stretching that long spiral cord beyond its limits and tying up the only phone in the house. Common purchases for these DIY gals may have been the latest cassette tape, neon bracelets, a swatch watch and a tube of clearasil. You wouldn’t catch them dead in the hardware store, totally unheard of to the max!

Are you there yet? Do you see leg warmers or jelly sandals? You’re getting closer…the time machine has stopped so step out of your DeLorean and behold…the time before blogs:

Do you recognize any of these popular DIY bloggers? I don’t know how “popular” they were back then. Do you think you could recognize them in High School, Middle School or Elementary School? For sure!

These awkward youngsters will one day be the brains behind your favorite DIY blogs. And they are giving a $300 Lowe’s Gift Card to the first person who can guess which faces match with which DIY blogs.

My oldest baby is 17 today. 🥹The last birthday My oldest baby is 17 today. 🥹The last birthday before she’s an adult. Babies are wonderful, but so is watching them grow and finding themselves. And also really painful. If you’re a mom you get it. Sadness for how fast the time has come, but also overwhelming joy knowing God’s got big plans for them.🙏

Emma Kate, we are so proud of you and love you to the moon and back. I pray this is your best year yet!💕 It’s been so fun celebrating you today and watching you live your best life with your girls.🎊
