Sometimes technology can be a scary thing. And sometimes technology can totally rock your world!
Have you heard about the bHome mobile app? bHome is a FREE app you can download that allows you to follow your favorite home and garden sites and publications, and all their social media, all in one simple-to-use app! You’ll be inspired by the real-time feed of beautiful rooms, gardens, projects, recipes, advice & tips, all designed to make your home and garden the best it can be. When you find what you need, want, or love, pin to your own Pinterest boards.
The bHome app was created by Kelly of My soulful Home and her husband, Peter, and it is truly amazing!
And guess what? Now you can find me there too!!
I am so excited!! They have hand-picked the best home and garden sites and publications on the web, and new ones are being added all the time, so if you don’t see your favorites there yet, bPatient. 🙂
And what about that giveaway I promised?
I’d love to have you follow me on bHome, and to show my appreciation, I’m giving away one of my very own one-of-a-kind Upcycled projects!
Remember this pineapple lamp?
That I turned into this super cute message board…
Unfortunately you can’t win this one, my Mom claimed it a long time ago, but you can win this one:
I mean, this one:
See? A one-of-a-kind, made by yours truly. It’s perfect for leaving by the phone to jot down a quick message, or to display what’s on the menu for that evening. (Or just to make it look like you have an elaborate meal planned.😉)

Love your lamp – message board makeover. What a great giveaway.
I would follow you but I just have a PAS (plain and simple) phone so not able to add apps. but best of luck to everyone else.
Christy K. James says
That’s ok, Colleen! Thank you anyway! XOXO
Terry says
Downloaded app, but when trying to “create account”, I type in my email address and password (and confirm password), try to hit the “sign up” button, but it’s grayed out and will not allow me to join. What am I doing wrong?
Christy K. James says
That’s strange. Are you still not able to get in? I would try closing the app and trying again maybe? If you’re still having trouble, let me know!
Kelly says

I downloaded the bHome app on my iPad but to be totally honest I haven’t used it yet. What little I saw looked impressive but my gosh between G+, Bloglov’n, Facebook, Instagram, yadda yadda when is enough social media apps enough and how do you know which ones to focus your energy on?
But dang, I love your upcycled lamp and I seem to be on a roll winning Wendi’s book giveaway.
Christy K. James says
Ha ha I am SO with you, Marie!! You hate to miss out on the next big thing though you know? As a blogger, this requires very little time from me…it just pulls all my posts, Tweets, pins and IG posts that I would be doing anyway into one feed for followers, which is pretty cool. The more I play around with it, the more I like it. Congrats on winning Wendi’s book giveaway! 🙂
Christy @ Our Southern Home says

Paula@SweetPea says
Congratulation, Christy! You are a great addition to bHome. I like to browse bHome in the evening via my ipad and it has introduced me to a few “new to me” blogs.
Christy K. James says
Thanks so much, Paula! I have also found a few new-to-me blogs since I’ve been playing around with it. It is a fun app! 🙂
Shirley@Housepitality Designs says

Hi, I love that message stand from a lamp base! Great idea! I hit favorite on the bHome app for your blog and no message or link popped up to join the giveaway, was I supposed to do something else?
Thanks,
Cathy 🙂
Christy K. James says
