Hello World! It’s the beginning of the week and time for Make it Pretty Monday – Week 177! What plans do you have on your to do list for this week? I hope to finish up the furniture shuffle for mine and Mr. Dedicated’s combined office. I’m really excited about sharing the space with the man! I expect a bit of laughter when we are in there together. Also, this Friday, I’m kicking off a Grilling Series to inspire us to break out the grills and get ready for Summer eating. Mr. Dedicated was very enthusiastic about this series. So much in fact, that he went to the store, prepared the food and even did a little hand modeling. All I had to do was take pictures and eat…oh, and clean up the dishes. Anyhoo, I hope you will pop back in on Friday to check out the first installment! Let’s get to the features and to the party, shall we?
Welcome to Week 177 of:
My Favorite
Peonies and Orange Blossoms has a great post dedicated to the different styles of French houses. If you have a love affair with all things French, you will want to saunter over for a great read and some pretty eye candy.
Craft Queen
Bird’s Party shares a tutorial to make these pretty Floral Napkin Rings. I had a hard time choosing a favorite picture because they were all so luscious! Stop by and see for yourself.
Shopping Queen
Debby finds the best things! I love this rocker she picked up and transformed with a pretty shade of pink. To see all of her finds, pop on over to Debby Goes Shabby.
Furniture Transformation Queen
How fabulous is this? Seriously amazing! To check out the tutorial for her DIY Wire Spool Table, be sure to buzz on over to Savvy Apron.
Sewing Queen
Just in time for Summer, a light and breezy little tote from Crochet for You. Zip on over to get the low down on this sweet, little number.
Culinary Delight Queen
Nitka Design shared a delicous Asparagus Salad Recipe along with some divine pictures. Dash on over to pick up the recipe.
Dessert Queen
If you need a Blackberry Napoleon recipe, Must Love Home has you covered! Doesn’t this look amazing?
Tablescape Queen
I love this layered centerpiece from Sweet Sensations. It looks wonderful with her tablescape.
DIY Queen
Our Gilded Abode shared a tutorial on a DIY Wood Plank Headboard with Lights. The lights really add such a nice touch. Stop by to get the scoop.
Home Decor Queen
I love, love, love the kitchen finale at The Red Painted Cottage. Such a wonderful job with the finishes, appliances and the decor. Oh, and a cute tea towel thrown into the mix to add that something special.
Gardening Queen
Our beautiful rose, Betty has a garden variety full of these lovely blooms. Each one is divine in their own right. And, I bet her garden smells heavenly. Stop by My Cozy Corner to take a stroll through her garden.
