To celebrate my year anniversary week here at Offbeat, we’re looking back at my top four favorite posts from each of the last 12 months.
50 Fresh & Juicy Slices of Offbeat Home Decor – this post is maybe the most popular post I’ve ever posted, at any blog, ever. What makes this post unique, is that along with my readers, I like it too. Usually I think a post should be popular, and it’s not, or my readers here LOVE a post that totally surprises me. This post makes everyone happy. And it’s cool.
HGTV Design Star Contestant Josh Johnson (”Sparkle Josh”) Chats with Offbeat Homes! – Josh was so nice; it really surprised me; I guess I misjudge people on TV, or, at least some of them. Plus I was way obsessed with Design Star season two, so this was a fun post to write.
10 Reasons Why Building Your Own House Sucks – I finally got this rant out of my system.

Treehouse Bling – if you don’t like treehouse bling, I wonder about you. Really. Treehouses rock. Even the overly expensive ones.
Which of these August finds was your favorite?
















My fave is the tree house, of course:) I think it’s a displaced childhood thing.
I never had a treehouse either. Maybe of we get a new house sooner, rather than later, Cedar and I will build one (not like that one above though).
