garage sale | The CSI Project

What an exciting challenge! We loved seeing your transformations, and so did this week's guest judge, Mandi Gubler of Vintage Revivals. Here is the note Mandi sent to all of you after seeing your projects: Seriously, you guys inspire me! After going through all of these links, my wish list is SOOO much longer than it needs to be....I am so impressed with the creativeness of these makeovers! You guys are AMAZING!!! Love your guts, Mandi Mandi chose an overall challenge winner and her 10 favorite projects. She left fun comments about each of them (don't you love it when our judges do that?), so we'll include those (in italics) along with a picture and link to each of the winners. Let's see which projects Mandi loved best..... #88 Dresser Makeover from Lil Pink Pocket Because I LOVED this dresser. As in this exact one. I called to buy it right after it sold.
