If I only had a month of Sundays....

I've spent the better part of this morning just ogling over some wonderful things on other people's blogs....

And because my camera has taken the final dirt nap, I can't show you any of my projects right now.

But here are a few that I simply LOVE to look at and can't wait to copy!

This gorgeous homemade dry erase calendar from Somewhat Simple!
Perfect for our spot in the kitchen.  And I'll be adding a corkboard above for all those school notes and papers.

Aren't these pillows just PERFECT?  I LOVE THEM!!  And for goodness sake, even I can sew a square!  You can find the whole tutorial over at The Blessed Nest.

How about this gorgeous mod-podge light cover?  So easy and yet it adds so much to a room decor.  This I can do!!  Thanks Leanne over at Organize and Decorage Everything! 


I truly love this idea!  I don't have 5 kids~~~but I do have a great family and I can picture doing this with a great Bible quote and family pics!  Great ideas over at How Does She?! 


And I can't begin to tell you how excited I was to find this tutorial!  I've been wanting to do a Lego table for the boys for a year now.....perfect idea for an old table I have in the garage!  Thanks Kate over at the Gaines Gang!


How about you?  Have you found anything wonderful on the Web lately?

Trash to Treasure

I have been working on a few projects and here is one.

LOVE this treasure!! 


I took a wide black frame, purchased at Michael's on sale for $4 my friends.  SaWEET!!!  Added a little bit of fabric to the back with a bit o' Mod Podge....that stuff ROCKS my friends!!!  It goes on beautifully and that lovely green fabric is going nowhere folks!  Then spray painted the letter J for our last name and glued that on. 

Easy peasy!!  My idea of craftin'!! 



Hook on up over at Reinvented with my friend Kimm.  She's got so many more wonderful little trashy treasures!  ENJOY!!!

It's a Chalkboard Party!!

Over at in His Grace


So this is my before pic:



And here is the after:


Ta Da!! The platter became a great little place for notes and menus. The round thing-a-mi-jiggy is an old crock and I'm not really sure how I'm going to use it yet. I don't like to have things on the counter much but I'm thinking of using to plant some wonderful parsley. I'll post another pic as soon as I figure out it's future....

Head on over to Chrissie's and see what the other painters have done. OH! And I have another cute little thing involving those flowers but you'll have to wait another week.....it's still in creation mode (but close!).

Have a fantastic weekend!!
