Happy April!  Did you make it through April Fool’s Day unscathed {smile}?  Spring is definitely upon us and I’m feeling excited about jumping into summer posts but before we do, let’s take a look back at all that went on at Dukes and Duchesses in March.  This month was full of a lot of upcycling, a lot of crafting, and quite a bit of decorating around the homefront.  Some of my favorite projects were yours too and I love that … it means I’m showing you all what you want to see!  These top ten posts of the month are the posts that you read the most, pinned the most, and shared the most {thank you!}.  For details on any of the posts you see below, click on the link to take you to the full post.  And if you just want to save it for a rainy day, click on “pin it here” to add the idea to your favorite pinterest boards.
