Just in case no one else had mentioned it today?

You are amazing.

You are unique and special and incredible and awesome and one-of-a-kind.

And the best part?

You are perfect JUST THE WAY YOU ARE.

Truly.

I wanted to shout you out from my little corner of the universe and say thank you.

Thank you for all your support and encouragement and e-mails and uplifting words about the new book.

And how better to say thank you than with a giveaway?

Before we get to the giveaway I wanted to share this.

It’s a little video I made for the book a while back that I found yesterday that sums up the message I want to share.

But before we watch can I just point out a couple of quick things:

1. Why did I hold onto that coffee cup so fiercely?  It’s like I’m so determined the coffee is a part of the video and I’m so worried it’s going to spill that I hold it at a random angle.

Awkward.

2. This was taped during my purple nail polish phase.  I need to go back to purple for spring.

3. I wish I would have let go of the coffee and opened up the planner so you could see inside.

4. I need a little Aqua Net.

Enough said.

Here’s a little glimpse inside the planner that the video didn’t show.

It’s full of DIY projects and what to buy at yard sales and how high to hang your chandelier and what flooring is best where and how to plan out your spaces and window treatment ideas.

And pages and pages and pages of practical, funny, joy-filled, encouraging decorating advice.

Want to get your own copy?

Oh good.

Me, too. 🙂

Here’s the link to order your very own copy.

And now to celebrate.

Are you ready?

Happy day my wonderful friend.

I hope its as amazing as you are.

    Such a beautiful book! I love the way you fiercely hold your coffee cup! Treasures need such care! Hoping to win because, who doesn’t want to win? And, today’s my birthday! This could replace the gifts that my six sons would like to have remembered to buy but would take credit for your gift just the same. (You would, of course, receive the thank you note. )

    I am loving the planner. I cannot wait to sit down with my room measurements and plot out all of the furniture, and then move it all around. We are redoing my daughter's room, and this will be perfect!!!

    The first things I wish I could tackle would be my laundry room, aka "the back porch" because it is our rear entry, which has evolved into our main entry....sigh. It has a half bath and then leads into the kitchen. Can I just say....U.G.LY. F.L.O.O.R.S. and more! I love this new book!

  14. Image for Lee Ann Oliverio Lee Ann Oliverio

    Oh my goodness I'm in the midst of getting my house ready to sell, and then I'll be buying a new house! So I need this for every corner! Thank you Karianne, you are awesome!

    My entire house could use some help!! We bought it a little over a year ago and we've done a few things (new living room furniture and a shower remodel currently happening) but I have almost NOTHING on my walls and have a teeny tiny budget to work with. I love your blog and I hope someday my home is as beautiful as yours...only in a different style (since I don't live in a farmhouse or anywhere near a farm) ;-) Your stories always brighten my day!

  25. Image for Jan Fusco Jan Fusco

    I love this book and would love another to share with a friend. Your ideas are so inspiring. I'm working on a room right now that you helped me get started by suggesting SW Repose Gray. I love it. Now on to the furniture and accessories.

    Our master bedroom. It has no soul, no fun, it's just a room with a bed right now - and cute paint on the walls, but it needs to be finished in the worst way. Help me Karianne!

    Have purchased a fixer upper, and want to do the whole house. As soon as the old house sells, we are going to be renovating the new one. A new Kirkland’s is opening up near new place, cannot wait to see what it is like. Win or lose, this exciting. And a lot of work.

    I could use help in my entire house, haha, but especially in my master bedroom and master bath! You have great taste and give much inspiration! Thank you!

  50. Image for Mercy Mercy

    Oh, Karianne, where to start?!? My entire home is a work in progress: My living room needs paint & new flooring (hardwoods? Yes please!), my kitchen is a disaster—I mean, seriously, who needs 2 refrigerators in the same kitchen?!? My bathroom is almost done, just trim and caulk, but it’s been nearly a year! My bedrooms are about the same stage as my living room, and the master bath is orange with rust from our water, even with a water softener! But congratulations on your second (did you ever even thonk in your woldest dreams you’d write a FIRST book, let alone a SECOND?!?)! I’m so happy for you! Mercy

  51. Image for Cynthia Hilliard Cynthia Hilliard

    First of all, I splurged and got your book. Love it! And every day I look forward to your blog! I need help with my living room. I'm an empty- nester, went from a 2 bedroom house, to an apt. I really need help trying to condense everything to just a living room.

  52. Image for Karen Robbins Karen Robbins

    I just received your new book in the mail yesterday. It is beautiful. I can't wait to use it to help me with the changes I'd like to make to our house. I love your blog and have used so many of your ideas. I know this book will be a BIG help.

  53. Image for LibbyMcCarty LibbyMcCarty

    We have a large open concept living room and kitchen area. I need this planner to help me! Really I need this planner to help with my entire house. It is so empty. So afraid to mess it up on my own.

    Organization is my number one priority at the moment, but I am planning to paint my kitchen cabinets in the very near future.

    I'm interested in your book and perhaps it could help me with my laundry room/mud room. That would be awesome! I read your blog every day. :)

  56. Image for Elizabeth Elizabeth

    I love your blog! I think your old/new house is gorgeous. What a great blessing to raise your family in the house you were raised in. I’d use your planner to design my living room/dining room!

  57. Image for Charity Kiser Charity Kiser

    Thanks so much! I pre-bought the book and it's so nice! If I win I'll give the other one as a gift but I could definitely use the frog tape and $100 Kirkland's gift card!

    I got mine promptly on release day from Amazon.... and can't wait to devour the entire book!!! YOU are so amazing and encouraging and we all thank you for your blog and your books in our lives!

    Good morning! Such an encouraging word :-). The part of my house that I would like to update is my bedroom. It is just a bit dated and new ideas would be fun to see.

    I love your book & I am in the planning stage of spring cleaning/decorating my living room (+ entire house needs a little something, something).

  61. Image for Brenda in Tennessee Brenda in Tennessee

    We built our home 27 years ago. A classic southern living plan for a brick home. Over the years we have done updates. My kitchen is my next big project. I get so overwhelmed by the hard surface choices that need to blend together that have the project in a stall mode. I need inspiration to spur my decision making alone. Thanks for the opportunity.

  62. Image for Brenda Brenda

    Love your blog and your new home. Your farmhouse in Kentucky was gorgeous. Always wanted a farmhouse with a big porch to sit and visit and drink sweet tea. I'm going to start redoing my kitchen in June. So hoping your planner will give me lots of ideas.

  63. Image for Debbie Debbie

    I have your new book and am getting ready to dig in to the planning. I only hope that I come out of this with just one room as beautiful as yours!

    This looks like a very useful tool. We have a living/dinning room space that's got me wondering how to make it work

  65. Image for Peggy Harzinski Peggy Harzinski

    Reading your blog is the first thing I do every morning. Thanks for all the the cheer and inspiration! Spring is my favorite season for new projects so I can't wait to get started on my family room. It needs some love!

    I had pre-ordered your planner and got it Tuesday! Haven't had a chance to get into it yet, but hope to this weekend! Would love the $100 Kirkland's gift.

    I loved the video, coffee cup and all! 😊 I am trying to fix up a few rooms in my home. What is it about spring that gets us purging and painting?! Happy Spring friend! 💕🌷☀️

    It would have to be my kitchen! I used to think I was an organized person. But, I have an area of my kitchen that may have an avalanche at any moment! Paper! Paper may be the death of me. I can't get it under control. Insurance forms, bills, mail, things that I need to keep, things that I might need to keep, and on and on and ON!

  71. Image for Tracy laubham Tracy laubham

    I would use this planner to redesign my kitchen/breakfast nook. It needs space planning help. Round table or square? Island or peninsula?

  72. Image for Debbie Marigoni Debbie Marigoni

    I’m sure you don’t remember but you helped me with my family room remodel. It turned out PERFECT! Thank you so much 😘 Bought your book and will use it to redo my bedroom. After 20 years, it needs some sprucing up. Congrats on all your endeavors! I’m so happy for you

  73. Image for Kathy Kathy

    Love your blog, your style, and your energy! Need inspiration to make our new home (downsized into an apartment) feel fresh and comfy. A copy of your book would be such a treat and a Kirkland gift card would help, too!

    I need to better organize my kitchen. I want to change my living room and dining room so when others come I feel better about it all. BUT for me I want to empty my bedroom and start all over! I have NEVER bought anything other than a mattress for my bedroom new! It has all been hand me down or finds just to make do -- nothing I REALLY LOVE!

  75. Image for Donna Donna

    Two months ago I moved into a little cottage built in 1937. It is sweet the way it is, but there are things that I need to do and things that I want to do to really make her shine. I have ideas...but it will take some time for it all to unfold. Kirklands does have some beautiful things. I bought a colander there for my little kitchen just a few weeks ago.

  76. Image for Debra Brown Debra Brown

    Karianne I used to read many decorating blogs weekly. Your blog is the best and now the only one I read. You, my girl, are terrific. Keep up the good work.

    The kitchen! It's mainly used for functionality purposes right now, but I would love to plan it out better and organize (!!!) so there's a better use of space and a cleaner look. If you gotta fix and eat food in there, you want it to be a pretty room, too! Thanks for the generous giveaway, and congrats on the book!

  83. Image for Dale Dale

    I need to plan out/ organize the center of my home (kitchen/dining/living areas). I have downsized dramatically to a 'cute' home just for me and have way too much stuff. This book will really help me plan everything out before I put those plans into action.

  84. Image for Traci Ziemer Traci Ziemer

    Hi KariAnne, I just purchased your book yesterday at my local Kirklands and LOVE it! I love the whimsical way the book is written and designed, it really talks to me and my style! I have forever dreamed of a beautiful and romantic bedroom getaway for my husband and myself! It seems our room is always the last on the list.

  85. Image for Bonnie Bonnie

    I'm so happy for you that you have a new book coming out. I would love to win the package! I need to purchase and hang some new curtains in my bedroom. Mine have definitely seen better days.

    Thank you for this great giveaway and for all you do to inspire/encourage! My basement is a hodge podge....that's the area that needs the most help.

  87. Image for Kathy Kathy

    The room that needs the most help right now is my guest room. It's stuck with bright pink carpet and walls and cast off furniture and boxes of stuff that don't have a home. I also hope to "redo" my kitchen at some point. So much to do!

  88. Image for Vicki crandall Vicki crandall

    Oh, could I come shadow you for a week? ( nothing creepy, just want to see you in action) I need help in my kitchen/ dining space. I know you would work magic on it! Thank you for the opportunity to win!

    I really need to make a plan for my Master bathroom. It’s nice, but builder grade blah and I haven’t done anything with it in the almost 3 years we’ve been here. That’s what I would use the planner for!

    I am working on several spaces in the house on a tight budget. We moved into this home a couple of years ago, and I am really trying to work on making my own mark here with my own style. The whole house needs painting, and I want to reimagine some furniture and accessories with some paint and fabrics. I really need all of the help I can get. Thank you for trying to spread your amazing talent and sunshine to those of us who are so inspired by your style and beautiful smile.

  97. Image for Karen U Karen U

    Hi KariAnne, I need this book to help me sort out my basement. We use this space as a guest room/guest livingroom/kids gaming room and a laundry area.... a lot of expectation from a small space!

    Our bedroom looks like a dump - I need the motivation and encouragement that you give in this book and on your blog.

    I enjoyed your first book. I gave it to my daughter to read. And to pass on. I’m excited about the daily planner.

  100. Image for Margaret Mills Margaret Mills

    Need all the help I can get in decorating. All my creativity was pinched out of me by my first grade teacher, so I need Karianne to help with my dilemma.

  101. Image for Marta Marta

    We just purchased a little house on a lake that needs total revamping. I am redoing everything - floors, kitchen, bathrooms, you name it. This book is just what I needed to help me organize and make sure there is a cohesive flow. Actually on my way to Kirkland's after work to pick it up. Thank you so much for your blog and for writing this book. It will be my go-to workbook.

    I want to plan and redesign my kitchen. It has such an awkward layout. The laundry is in there also and not enough room. Although we are going to be moving this year and are just going to refresh it. But I can’t wait to use your planner for my new home!! You’re amazing and I’m so very happy for you!!

  107. Image for Marie Marie

    My living room/dining room needs so much help. I have many ideas, but I'm hoping I'll have an "aha" moment regarding the floors. I know your positive attitude will rub off and encourage me, so I'm not so terrified of making the wrong decision.

  108. Image for Rachel B Rachel B

    I had literally just finished and closed "So Close to Amazing" when the new book arrived in the mail! I am prolonging the anticipation just a couple days before I dive into it. I can hardly wait...

  109. Image for Deanna Deanna

    You are amazing! I so love your upbeat messages. They help when I'm having a rough day. Kind of like today. Thanks...

    I would definitely want to change our 39 yr. old family room. It had chair rail, barnside paneling underneath, and grasscloth (which I loved) above. Eight yrs ago, we removed the grasscloth, paneling, and chair rail. We had the room painted four times and still the wall area below where the paneling was is terrible looking. We definitely need to replace the drywall.

  111. Image for Gabi Gabi

    Karianne, you always make my day! I feel like you live next door and we share all our decorating ideas over mugs of coffee or tea...and maybe a tiny slice of something sinfully chocolate! Your blog inspires me and gives me so many great ideas. I just wish the days were less crazy (and you know what I mean) so that I could accomplish more! Thanks for being my virtual friend ;o)

  112. Image for Sherry Sherry

    I would like to focus on planning my bedroom first and then move on to other areas of our home. I just checked out your book from our library, I know I will need my own copy.

    My whole house needs help! I've been afraid to do anything because I just don't quite know where to start. I'm counting on your cute adorable book to help me figure it out. I like my to-do lists for my daily housework and activities, so I'm hopeful your planner is what I need to get going on making my rooms reflect my taste.

    We moved to a house 2 yrs ago, in MO. Due to finances, I cannot ditch all my furniture and begin anew. I have great pieces, tho a bit dated. My dining rm and great room are conjoined in a big open space. I know it could be laid out better than I have it - I need help. We loved using Frog Tape when we painted every room. It is simply a BLESSING. CANNOT WAIT to read your book. KUDOS to you.......sorry for yelling!!!!! I get excited with change.

  135. Image for Deb Deb

    I was so excited to receive my copy of the book in today's mail. I'm looking forward to tips on window treatments and freshening room decor. Thanks in advance for all your helpful tips.

    Wishing you the best of luck on your new book which has been so helpful to me personally. It has freed my way of thinking about how to decorate and now I'm in the process of making my girls' dreams come true with a truly special room. Your heart and soul are all over the book which is what makes is so special and more than just a decorating book.

    Love your blog and 1st book "So Close to Amazing", which I do have. I don't have your Planner yet, but plan on getting it. I am redoing my bedroom (making two rooms into one larger one) and I think this would really help the process.

  145. Image for Amber Amber

    My living room could definitely use some better planning. We have an open floorplan and it's not working very well for us right now.

  146. Image for Robin Robin

    My kitchen needs to be a RockStar, with a little (a lot) of planning it will shine. Love your creative, inspiring and funny blog and books. Cape Cod is calling you, would love to hear you are planning a return visit. (a book tour) possibly?

  147. Image for Celeste Celeste

    I'm loving the book, especially the tools you've included. I like having one go-to spot for the samples and floor plans. Even now we are working on finishing our basement and making design decisions down there.

  148. Image for Fran Fran

    I need all the help I can get to redo my master bedroom which looks really tired right now! Would love to have a guide like the planner for this.

  149. Image for Kathleen Kathleen

    I not only want, but NEED, to redecorate our front living room! I still love many things we've placed in it, but it feels totally crowded and stale ~ and really needs a refresher! Using your Planner will help us to do it correctly ... not just push things around, change out occasional tables and chests, etc.! Your book (I was very early in the pre-orders!) is such a wealth of information, and now you have this great giveaway too?! The excitement continues! Thank you!

    Can't wait to receive your book Karianne. Preordered it through the link on your website and it hasn't arrived yet. I need to work on my master bedroom because it's a bit boring and my living room because there's too much brown and wood.

  152. Image for Jolyn Jolyn

    So bummed I won’t be in the metroplex to meet you at Kirkland’s... love the video and that fierce grip on the coffee cup! Not a drop was spilled!

  153. Image for Lesley Lesley

    I love that you share what you know in such a beautiful way, though I am sure the book took a ton of work! Thank you for being so open, so willing to expose your heart and open your home to us. I find it so inspiring and I look forward to tackling some improvements to our living room this spring.

    Lots and lots of comments. I was encouraged to buy your book from Patti with Old Things New blog, but it was late and I was upstairs and I didn't have my purse nearby. Today your blog video gave me the final nudge. We live with my brother right now with not a clue about the future. I'm 60 and times are tough. Had to give away alot of project type things I was hanging on to because of no place to store them. I love to decorate my home....so hoping and praying there will be something in my future. Meanwhile, I'm planting strawberries and flowers in my brother and his wife's backyard and keeping things clean and tidy in their house while everyone goes off to work. They have no lamps anywhere in their quite large two-story home. Seven sofas, in various rooms, but no pillows! So I got my lamps and pillows out of storage.. to add color and bit of light. I had a stroke 9 years ago that had left me with a few complications, but I do have a part time job at a homeschool cooperative. So I'm thankful for that opportunity. However, I'm at home alot with some time on my hands. Reading alot and dreaming some. Thank you for your uplifting, encouraging blog. I'm looking forward to your book.

  155. Image for Eileen Eileen

    I have very high hopes that with your planner, I will finally get my home to start reflecting me! ( oh and the other person who lives here too)

  166. Image for grammy goodwill grammy goodwill

    I need a good plan for our second bedroom that serves as hubby's office, my craft room and our guest room. It's a very small room to try to meet all those needs. At our old house, we had two large rooms to fulfill those needs. Now all that stuff is crammed into a very tiny room. I think the book would be a big help. Thanks for the chance to win.

  167. Image for Susan Susan

    Love your blog, I would love to work on my laundry room. We use our side door and it's the 1st room you see . Thank you for the laughs and insight to decor that you share with us!

  196. Image for Ange Ange

    Karianne, I'm enjoying the videos from the pre-release of the book and hoping to soon dive into the book itself. I would love to do some work on my office/dressing room, so I'll be looking for ideas for that. In this space, the biggest piece of furniture would be the desk, then the file cabinet that the printer and tower set on.

  197. Image for Lauren Peterson Lauren Peterson

    I'd love to redo the garage...It's such a catch-all for everything, and it gets hard to walk in there sometimes.

    My Kitchen! It's a small 70s kitchen with odd cabinets hanging so you can't see your guests and doors in the middle of the wall making it difficult to imagine how to remodel the space on a very very very small budget. I can't afford to knock down walls! Sigh

    Just watching the video was inspiring! Maybe you just needed to drink the coffee....everything is better after coffee! :) I'm definitely going to check out the painted molding. Thankyou for the encouragement!

    I have a brand new house, so most of the rooms could use a little extra "planning," but I'd like my bedroom to be a real, relaxing retreat.

    She waited, and then she waited some more. She knew it would be worth the wait, after all, the comments were a reinforcement of what she was missing. She knew waiting was hard but, this was a wait she found harder than most. The room was ready, also waiting, for the love, the change about to happen. Pencil lines drawn, measurements taken. All were waiting for the moment when it would arrived. Today she wished she lived across the pond, so the waiting would be over. Today they told her another 10-12 days, more waiting, her patience might break, she may get cranky. She hears that still small voice inside her, it said , it will be worth it, trust me. So she waits,

    I would love to use your DIY Planner for our new home. My family and I are moving back to the US from living over seas for 10 years. We are starting from scratch since almost our entire life has been wrapped up in overseas missions, and we have nothing in the States. I think we will be buying a house that will need a lot of help and I will have to be creative. I love your blog, you make me smile and bring me joy. Thank you for laughter.
