Make it Pretty Monday – Week 75

by 48 Comments

Hello World!  Did you have a good weekend?  Sorry for the late start to the party.  We went to the opera yesterday and out to dinner.  When I got in, I was just too tired to get the post ready.  And, today, I would like to tell Mr. Dedicated that after 7 years with him, I would choose him all over again!  Happy Anniversary Love!

Okay, peeps, Thanksgiving and Christmas are fast approaching.  Deep breaths all around!  I really need to start wrapping presents now so that I don’t have a ton to do right before Christmas.  And, hopefully, the sun will give us a good show today so that I can take pictures of my Metallic Makeover and of course the big furniture rearrange.  So much to do, so little time.  Anyhoo, let’s check out the features from last week.  Welcome to Week 75 of:


Make it Pretty Monday
My Favorite

Pretty Gail amazes me with what she creates.  This time around it’s a Burlap 3D Snowflake!  To get the tutorial, scooch on over to Purple Hues and Me.

Craft Queen

Pretty Julia’s makeover of plain pimento jars with glitter and twine is just divine.  This might just fit in with my metallic kick.  Julia and her jars can be found at Happy House and Home.

Shopping Queen

Pretty Marsha hit up the local Barn Sale and took us along for the ride.  To see all the shopping goodness, fly on over to Every Little Birdie.

Furniture Transformation Queen

Pretty Jenna; my daughter would be begging me to paint her furniture just like this if she saw it.  How fun and whimsical!  Love it!  To see more of this hot pink wonder, take a walk on over to 24 Cottonwood Lane.

Sewing Queen

Pretty Maya is back with another delightful creation.  This time, an Irish Rose Necklace.  And, she so kindly posted the tutorial for all of you who love the clicking of crochet hooks.  Zip on over to Little Treasures to see the prettiness.

Culinary Delight Queen

Pretty Madonna shared her Fennel and Pomegranate Salad to remind us we still need to take care of ourselves during the mad holiday rush.  I adore pomegranates; so this one is going on my list of ones to make.  To get the recipe, pop on over to Make Mine Lemon.

Pretty Jenny brought these Pecan Pie Thumbprint Cookies to the party to share with us.  Delectable!  To get the scoop, run on over to 
In the Kitchen with Jenny.

Pretty Sarah…seriously this is fabulous!  DIY at it’s best!  You must check out the tutorial on this!  Pure genius!  Pay a visit to Life on Virginia Street to get the tutorial.

Pretty TaMara’s elegant Fall wreath is understated beauty.  To check out the list of what she used to put this lovely together, hop on over to

Christmas Decor Queen

Pretty Diedre’s wreath could be used for Fall, but the pops of red really rang out Christmas for me.  Love!  Must make!  To get the low down, slide on over to Simply Simplisticated.

2.  If you are participating in Make it Pretty Monday, be sure to link up your “permalink” post and not your general blog address.
