Hello World! Can you believe we are in the middle of February? Time is just zooming by! So, how do you like my new site? We are still tweaking things and hope to be finished with everything very soon. I hope the new look fills you with joy and inspiration!
So, let’s get to what gives me a ton of inspiration!
Welcome to Week 169 of:
My Favorite
Oh, my, goodness! You must rush on over to Bubbles and Boxwood to see more of this gorgeous wall mural! And, do I spy a sweet kitty curled up for a nap? I love the look of this fabulous wall!
Craft Queen
How cute are these heart flamingo pouches and straws! Such a cute idea! Pop on over to Just JP to pick up the tutorial.
Shopping Queen
I love Meg’s beautiful life as well as her lovely finds! Pay a visit to My Vintage Life to be inspired.
Furniture Transformation Queen
This is such a great makeover from While I Linger! Stop by for a visit and check out all of the pretty creations from Jolena.
Sewing Queen
Fabulous Marty who blogs at A Stroll Thru Life has a great tutorial to make this amazing Pom-Pom Pillow! You will be shocked at how little it cost her to make this striking pillow.
Culinary Delight Queen
I have been wanting to make Beef Wellington for quite some time and now Celebrate & Decorate has not only provided a recipe, but a great video as well! That is some serious deliciousness right there!
Dessert Queen
Stop by Pink Fortitude to get the scoop on these Peanut Butter Balls! Two of my favorites together, chocolate and peanut butter!
Tablescape Queen
I love these bowls that Designs by Pinky featured in her lovely tablescape. Drop by for a visit to see more of Pinky’s tablescape.
DIY Queen
Repurposed 4 Life took on the task of redoing their stairs and they look amazing! Be sure to pop in for a visit so you can see the before.
Home Decor Queen
I love this Nautical Bedroom Reveal from Red Wine and Peonies. There are so many great elements to check out! The wall behind the bed is perfection. Lovely job!
Spring Decor Queen
Nitka Design has me dreaming of Spring and flowers in bloom. Makes me almost want to go outside and dig in the dirt…almost. Such a lovely post.
Just Because Queen
I cannot wait to see what Holly at McCall Manor creates with this stack of gorgeous grain sacks. Oh, the possibilities!!
