Janell provides some of the best DIY tutorials on the web. Â You’ll find so much to inspire and guide you when you visit Isabella and Max Rooms. Â Clearly, Janell is no stranger to not just making do, but making new! Â She told us,
“One of my favorite things I enjoy working on is a good DIY project; it’s rare there isn’t a challenge or two to overcome, but it is always a lot of fun with a final result that feels very rewarding! Currently I’m busy completing one of my biggest projects to date, the e-zine House of Fifty, which will be published on April 25th.”
Congratulations, Janell! Â We can’t wait to see what you have in store for us on the pages of House of Fifty. Â While we’re waiting for the e-zine, we’ll just pop over and take a look at your Stella and Dot Boutique….Janell is also a stylist for this gorgeous line of jewelry.
