Here are the top 10 most popular podcast episodes from 2022. Before I share the list, I just want to say THANK YOU for listening to our podcast.

We get quite a few emails every week from listeners, and the consensus is our podcast is a cozy, comfortable listen—especially when you’re going through a hard time and need something easy and uplifting to listen to.

This time of year I think it’s really fun to look back and evaluate the past year. So, in that spirit this week, we thought we’d share what were the most popular posts from 2022.

We like to blog about lots of different topics, but in this post I am going to focus on the most popular home and craft posts that were written and published in 2022.

If you’re a frequent ABM reader, see if you can guess before reading this list. Some of them surprised me!

1. The most popular home decor post of the year was When an Open Floor Plan is Too Open. Elsie shared a number of “before” photos of her entryway/living room/dining room, which she was in the process of converting into a less open floor plan.
