Also, I have more exciting news that is in the works that I cannot spill the beans on just quite yet! The moment I can, trust me, you will be the first to know after Mr. Dedicated and Little Dedicated, of course.
Alrighty, enough of the jibber jabber.
Welcome to Week 144 of:
Make it Pretty Monday
My Favorite
Pretty Bridget’s home renovation is magnificent! The details on the exterior and the interior are what decor dreams are made of! Seriously, do yourself a favor, get a cup of tea, your tablet and cozy up on the couch and head to A Bit of Vintage to escape into this marvelous and whimsical world she has created.

Craft Queen
Pretty Jessica, I love this Monogram Wood Sign that you created. I loved it so much that when I saw it, I jumped up to head to the garage to sift through our amazingly organized space (ahem) for wood pieces that I might have. Then I remembered I live in Hot, Humid, Happening Houston and that will have to wait. Rest assured, I have bookmarked this project for a day in winter. Pop on over to Another Modern Housewife to get the tutorial on this cute project.

Shopping Queen
Pretty Sheila got a bee in her bonnet wanting to change up the Master Bedroom a bit. So, she bought this gorgeous comforter! On sale, as a matter of fact! I love the colors and the pattern! Buzz on over to My Kentucky Living to check out this bold beauty!

Furniture Transformation Queen
Pretty Shanice took the bull by the horns and spruced up her IKEA shoe organizer because the color it came in just did not suit her fancy. Being partial to blue, I say, job well done! Wander on over to City of Creative Dreams to see more of this bright baby.

Sewing Queen
Pretty Bev, these reminded me of my Grandmother and Aunt who always had these fun dishcloths on hand in order to solicit my help doing dishes as a kid when visiting for the summer. I thought there was nothing better than wringing out sudsy water from these cloths. Zip on over to Flamingo Toes to get the tutorial for these little pretties.

Culinary Delight Queen
Pretty Jenn…summer would not be complete without corn on the cob. This is one of my favorite ways of preparing corn on the cob. It’s so good, it will leave your guests silent as they munch away on your delectable corn on the cob. Head to Clean and Scentsible to see what all the fuss is about.
Make it Pretty Monday
Dessert Queen
Pretty Nikki has the dessert that will cool us down on the dog days of summer. I have made this with strawberries, but I’m excited to try it with watermelon. It sounds so refreshing. Dash on over to Tikkido to get the scoop.
Make it Pretty Monday
Tablescape Queen
Pretty Pam, I think we all just heard a collective sigh as we viewed your beautiful table among your exquisite garden. Okay, for my list of favorites: the stemware and vase…adore, the little fly catchers…completely intrigued, and lastly, the Rose of Sharon…magnificent. Waltz on over to Everyday Living to get the shopping details and to sigh a little bit more.
Make it Pretty Monday
DIY Queen
Pretty Joanne transformed her driftwood mirror using spray paint, shells and sea glass. A lovely addition to her entry at her beach cottage. Swim on over to Sea Glass Cottage to check out all of the details.
Make it Pretty Monday
Home Decor Queen
Pretty Andrea redecorated her master bedroom that is also the home for her office. I love how she floated the desk in this area and of course the pops of blue. Twirl on over to Decorating Cents to see all the angles of this pretty and calming space.
Make it Pretty Monday
Gardening Queen
Pretty Cindy has been in her new house for a year and her hydrangea are happy to have her as their plant mom. She chose them, planted them, and loved them! Look at them go. A little love does wonders for all things. Stroll on over to Cloches & Lavender to read this sweet post.
See, I told you they were amazing!
