CELEBRATIONS: Mediterranean Table Setting

With the weather heating up, it’s time to start thinking about casual gatherings. I picked up some new dishes recently and I can’t wait to use them for my next barbeque.

The Inspiration Board: Spotlight 203 & No-Bake Nom Noms

Well, we’re heading into the last week of April. I can’t believe it! I’m looking forward to May – it will be a last sprint to the end of the school year and then hopefully, a little bit of a slower pace once we reach summer. One can hope right? A huge thank you to all of you who stopped by last week. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate each visit, comment and link up. If you didn’t have a chance to visit me, here’s a recap of what I shared.

Marble Knobs  |  Cinco de Mayo Ideas  |  Kitchen Inspiration

And now for the projects featured from last week’s Inspiration Board.

WEEKEND INSPIRATION: Kitchen Style–What’s yours?

From one day to the next, I think I could redecorate my kitchen with any of these styles and be happy. At least for a while and then I’d redecorate again. What about you? Do you have a set style or do you like to try different looks?

CELEBRATIONS: Cinco de Mayo Ideas

Cinco de Mayo is around the corner and there’s no better excuse to have a wonderful meal of Mexican food with family and friends. I’ve pulled together some of my recipes and projects from years past that you could make for your Cinco de Mayo celebration.

Upcycling: Make Up Jars with Marble Knobs

I have such an easy project for you today but I loved how these turned out. Use upcycled or recycled containers and add a marble knob.

The Inspiration Board: Spotlight 202 & Tea Party Inspiration

Hello, hello friends. Welcome to another week at homework. I hope you had a great weekend filled with fun, relaxation and a little creativity. My weekend was filled with spring cleaning and purging. My son is nearing the end of his first year at college and he’s been slowly bringing things home from his dorm. So things are a bit chaotic around here.

Did you get a chance to stop by last week? I hope so but if not, here’s what I shared.

Dollar Store Flower Hoop Wreath  |  Printable Floral Background  |  Weekend Inspiration {Fantastic Dollar Store Ideas}

And now for the projects featured from last week’s Inspiration Board.

WEEKEND INSPIRATION: Fantastic Dollar Store Projects

I love shopping at the Dollar Store. Nothing makes me happier than finding something for a dollar and then transforming it into a useful or decorative piece. These are some of the best dollar store ideas I’ve come across. I can’t wait to make some of these projects.

BLOOM: Free Printable Floral Borders

I took these photos a few years ago and ’ve been searching for them for the longest time. My photo files on my external hard drive are sort of like that messy desk drawer file drawer – there’s a system but a few things end up misfiled. But I found them and they’re perfect for spring, Mother’s Day, graduations or anything.

CELEBRATIONS: Spring Hoop Wreath with Dollar Store Flowers

My spring pink décor continues. As I mentioned when I first shared my spring hutch, I used pink as an accent color this year. A first for me. To bring a little more pink to the room, I created this spring hoop wreath.

Woooosh. That’s how fast the weekend flew by. I got a few things done but not nearly as much as I wanted to accomplish. I did work on a pretty spring wreath that I’ll be sharing soon and some other fun things. I hope you had a great weekend. Thank you to all of you that stopped by last week – as always, I’m so appreciative. In case you missed anything, here’s what I shared last week.

Stress Buster & Healthy Living Ideas  |  Naked Cake Semi-Fail and Spring Butterfly Cupcakes  |  Spring Refresh Round Up

And now for the features from last week’s party.

WEEKEND INSPIRATION: Spring Refresh

TGIF friends! We made it through another week sharing creativity. I’m hoping to get caught up this weekend and create some new projects to share with you, clean my house and put away the laundry that’s been sitting in baskets since last weekend (no lie!). And if I have time, I would love to work on refreshing with some of these amazing spring projects I found.

GOOD TASTE: Naked Cake Fail & Spring Cupcakes

I’m sure you’ve seen all of those beautiful “naked” cakes that are being pinned lately. They’re all the rage and so pretty overflowing with layers of frosting, berries and flowers. I decided to try to make one and although I wouldn’t categorize it as a complete fail it definitely falls short of the inspiration images I’ve been eyeing.

INSPIRATION: Stress Buster and Healthy Living Ideas

Hello friends. Last week my day job kept me super busy – busier than usual.. If you didn’t know, I work full time as Senior Marketing Manager. I blog in the mornings, evenings and weekends. It was hard to unwind each night and by the end of the week, I was exhausted. Typically, I create my projects in the evenings, shoot and edit photos on Saturday and write and schedule all my posts on Sunday. Last week I got a little more behind every day and with Easter prep I had no time to catch up, create or shoot photos.

I’m so grateful that you find time to pop in and share creative inspiration with me. In case you missed anything last week, I had some last minute Easter projects.

Crepe Paper & Feather Eggs  |  Dear Easter Bunny Printable Note  |  Easter Leftover Inspiration

Now for the project featured this week.

WEEKEND INSPIRATION: Easter Leftovers

Happy Friday everyone. For many of us this Sunday is Easter. I thought I’d leave you with some Weekend Inspiration to make good use of those Easter leftovers you might have. If you’re not celebrating Easter, these are still some great recipes to check out.

INKLING: Printable Dear Easter Bunny Cards

Here’s a cute last minute printable for you. If you have little ones and you’re planning on leaving carrots for the Easter bunny, print out this Dear Easter Bunny card that I created. I miss the days when my son would leave the Easter Bunny a card and some carrots. Every year after he went to bed, I’d take bites out of the carrots as “proof” the bunny had actually stopped by.
