Happy New Year! How was your holiday break?!
We’re only two days into 2018, and I’m already looking back at 2017. Ha. What can I say, I guess I’m feeling a bit nostalgic the morning. Over the break, I spent some time looking back through old posts and started planning new content. So, a walk down memory lane this morning feels pretty appropriate.
In all honesty, I’ve never been huge on those ‘best of’ posts, so I’m approaching this as more of a resource for top posts you may have missed. I went through my analytics, found my most popular posts for 2017, and put them together in one big list for easy browsing. In case you’ve missed ’em, here are 35+ of the most popular posts on Paper & Stitch from 2017…
