THE INSPIRATION BOARD: Spotlight 265 and 10 Refreshing Summer Drinks

Happy Fourth of July to all of you in the U.S. I hope you’re enjoying the long 3-day weekend and are doing something fun today. Backyard barbeque, fireworks, and maybe later some s’mores – sounds perfect to me.

Our little senior dog is so scared of the fireworks we usually stay in and make sure stays calm. After years of suffering, I found some wonderful natural anxiety drops that seems to really keep her calm. And speaking of our dear dog Sammy, she snuck into some of my pictures this week. She insisted on laying on the new rug while I was shooting my bedroom makeover. So in case, you missed it, here’s what I’ve been working on and sharing lately.

And now for the projects featured this week.

Grilling doesn’t just mean hamburgers and steaks. The Domestic Life shares these Grilled Peaches with Mascarpone and they look like the perfect summer dessert.

If you want a farmhouse décor look, check out this beautiful room makeover by Hoosier Homemade which includes a  DIY Shiplap wall for a fraction of the price.

 What a great idea from On Sutton Place. A Pallet Outdoor Bar on wheels. This is exactly what I need for my patio.

I’ve been craving cheesecake lately and An Italian in my Kitchen says this one is the best. Bonus – it’s a no-bake recipe.

This is a great idea for a summer party. Gluesticks had a Summer Kebab Party – what fun!!

Another great summer idea by Frog Prince Paperie. Grab some tissue paper and make these pineapples for your next summer celebration.

A perfect summer craft for the kids. Tots Family shares this simple Craft Stick Bird Feeder.

This Twinkle Sprinkle Baby Shower by Bloom Design is stunning. The details are just breath taking.

Lynda Creates whipped up these Embroidered Felt Flowers for a pillow and they are just so bright and cheery.
