Hello World! It’s time for another Make it Pretty Monday – Week 181! We had such a lovely time last week while Mr. Dedicated was off from work. We took a couple of little excursions out of town which pretty much included hitting up a water park and an amusement park. The weather was amazing and the parks weren’t crowded! Perfection. I wished we would have stayed one more night. This week, I’m back at it trying to get some projects finished up around here. But, for now, it’s all about you and your fabulous work. So, let’s get to it.
Welcome to Week 181 of:
My Favorite
I loved this post from Peonies and Orange Blossoms! The Ritz in Paris has reopened after a 4 year $450 million renovation. Absolutely stunning!! Stop by to waltz through the rooms.
Craft Queen
This is a perfect craft for the 4th of July which is just unbelievably right around the corner. To get the tutorial for this festive craft, stop by Ilka’s Blog.
Shopping Queen
Sharing Shadymont picked up some amazing finds at her local Goodwill. She really scored! I love these pillows which were just a portion of her haul. Pop on over to look at all of her goodies.
Furniture Transformation Queen
This is such a happy transformation! To see the before, stroll on over to The Apple Street Cottage.
Sewing Queen
We have another pretty transformation in yellow. This time it’s sheets to shower curtain. Zip on over to Just Simple Somethings to get the details.
Culinary Delight Queen
I love peaches; so I was very intrigued with this Peach and Chicken Salad from Culinary Flavors. Doesn’t this look delicious?? #Yum
Dessert Queen
Little Dedicated loves Rice Krispie Treats and picked this feature! The perfect Summer treat. Pay a visit to Chemistry Cachet to pick up the recipe.
Tablescape Queen
Fabby is back with a resplendent Summer table with sunflowers. To see all of the details, make a call on Fabby’s Living.
DIY Queen
Enjoying the Simple Things shared her weathered beauty creation. Love this! Stop by to see the before and more pretty afters.
Home Decor Queen
Shenita at Embellishments by SLR shared her amazing Spring/Summer Essentials. You will want to get the list so you can incorporate these into your seasonal decor.
