Hello World! Welcome Friends! How are you loves? I don’t even feel like we had a weekend; we were soooo busy. I’m in serious re-arrange the furniture mode over here trying to find the right placement. You know, it’s serious business. I think I may have come up with a solution for my hutch problem in the foyer I chatted endlessly about in my last post. If you missed seeing the new table and foyer chat, click HERE or the link down at the end of the post. For now, let’s party!
Welcome to Week 221 of:
My Favorite
This post from Calypso in the Country really caught my eye! Not only are the houses gorgeous, but the gardens are breathtaking. This is definitely going into my inspiration file to spur me on to get out in my yard and get a plan going.
Craft Queen
Vintage Paint and More has a great craft tutorial for you. Stop by and see how she created this Vintage Sign.
Shopping Queen
Thrifty to Nifty shared how she decorated her new house with thrifted decor. Such a lovely space!
Furniture Transformation Queen
I love this door turned to headboard that The Interior Frugalista shared! Gorgeous! Be sure to pay her a visit to pick up the tutorial.
Sewing Queen
Zip on over to La Vie en May to check out her petite fashion hacks and how she hems dress pants.
Culinary Delight King & Queen
Oh, sweet Lord! These look amazing! Dash on over to Craft Beering to pick up the recipe for Smoked Chargrilled Oysters!
Dessert Queen
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like peanut butter with chocolate. So, these Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars with Chocolate Frosting from Brooklyn Farm Girl would be a hit over here. Run on over to get the scoop.
Tablescape Queen
I love this place setting from Hyacinths for the Soul! It is perfectly Summer and Independence Day all in one!
DIY Queen
Raising a Farmhouse showed off her epoxy countertops that look like marble! Beautifully done and gorgeous!
Home Decor Queen
The gorgeous kitchen at Charleston Crafted was recently featured in Charleston Home and Design Magazine! And, rightfully so! It’s a dream of a space! Congratulations! Photography by Patrick Brickman.
