The Inspiration Board: Spotlight 182 & Sugar & Spice Inspiration

Happy Friday everyone. If you’re here in the U.S. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration with plenty of stuffing and pie! Since most of us today are recovering from way too much food, I’ll keep this short and sweet. Have a wonderful weekend and I’ll see you back here next week.

Here’s what I shared this week here on homework.

Artful Christmas Book Review | Birch Printable Thank You Cards  |  DIY Spiral Notebook with Wood Veneer Cover

And now for the projects featured in the spotlight this week.

The DIY Dreamer created this darling Deer Wood Slice Ornaments. I love the rustic look with the free form wire hangers.

A pretty winter white mantel by The Crazy Craft Lady. This has such a nice balanced feel to it. Those gorgeous silver candle sticks and on the opposite end the white trees. So many pretty elements.

It All Started with Paint shares these delicious looking pie pops. Pie on a stick – I love it!!

A brilliant Acorn Advent Calendar by Home Made Interest. Plastic eggs reinvented into acorns! So smart!

I have stacks of peat pots that I recently bought at the dollar store and I love this idea by Homespun with Love. The peat pots are the perfect size for a little treat and these are perfectly presented with just the simplest of embellishment.


Another wood slice project and this one by The Gracious Wife. Simple name cards are inserted into a slice in the wood and adorned with a simple Rosemary sprig. Lovely!


I’m a big fan of Simply Suzanne’s photography and her Fall Favorites Wrap Up is a treat to look at. This pretty wreath was one of my favorites.


Is it cold where you are? It’s been in the 80’s here but cold at night and this Adult Chicken Noodle Soup by It’s Always Ruetten looks amazing.


Girlfriend Shoes shares this beautiful winter white wreath that has such a nice traditional look to it. The slightest splash of blue and the frosty pinecones are so pretty against the white wreath and white door.


Fyne’s Designs created this centerpiece box and covered it with birch paper. This gorgeous table with the traditional Christmas red and evergreen sprigs makes me want to go with a green and red motif this year.

Caramel Brulee Latte by Pink Recipe Box  |  Cinnamon & Sugar Candied Nuts by The Pin Junkie  |  Southern Brown Sugar Pecan Pie by The Gracious Wife  |  Brown Sugar Scrub by Homespun with Love  |  Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls by Lace & Glaze  |  Gingersnap Fudge Bars by Annie’s Noms
