Pinworthy Projects Party – My Pinworthy Picks

By 4 Comments

December has been hectic already and we are only 6 days in! I promise there will be a link party each and every Friday but I am not 100% positive I will be able to get to features for Thursdays. We’ll just take it week to week, ok? {But, rest assured, I will still bevisiting each and every link to check you guys out!}


Ok, so let’s take a look at some of the awesomeness linked up at last week’s party!





First up, check out this great wreath upcycle from Southern Abbey!

Want to feel like you are at the beach for Christmas? Then, check out these coastal inspired Christmas decorating ideas from Decorated Chaos.

Maybe you are looking for a really unique gift idea? Crystelle Boutique took some old neckties and made them into a skirt.

We’ve had a mini-reindeer invasion in our house and I love it! Maybe I can convince Kari @ Shaken Together to send me her glitter reindeer art.

Over at Simplicity in the South, there is some gorgeous Christmas artwork that was practically free…perfect for the budget conscious crafter 🙂

I’ve never tried freezer stenciling but Tales of the Scotts makes it look so easy with her freezer stenciled deer shirt that I may have to try!

Sarah SaturDIY gave me the perfect craft to make from all the wine corks I know will come after our upcoming Christmas party…a Wine Cork Christmas tree!

The most viewed food link was…Snowkiss Cookies from the Crafted Sparrow. Pretty sure I could eat all of those…in one sitting! YUM!

And the most viewed everything else link was the Bulbous Bouffant from Ruffly Ribbons and Ramblings. If only my hair was that long…

Ok, see you back here tomorrow morning for another fun party!

Are you busy Christmas shopping?  I definite have been and, since part of our family will not be visiting for Christmas this year, I am relying a lot on the internet.  One of my absolute favorite online stores is ModCloth.
They have adorable, vintage-inspired clothing and accessories for women at fantastic prices; espcially during the ModCloth ‘Tis The Season Sale. ModCloth doesn’t only have clothing, however, they also have the cutest, retro home decorations. Check it all out right now!

A Fun Game Instead of Features

By 20 Comments

No features today. I’m spending every extra moment I have with this

We are working on all the trim in the basement so we can start getting paint on the walls.

Instead of our regular features, I have a fun game that will win one of YOU a secret prize {Pinky promise that it is a good one though!}.  

Here’s how to play:
Go visit last week’s party and then come back here and leave me a comment with your favorite project that was linked up AND visit that person’s post and leave them a comment.

Some guidelines:
1) One comment per person please.
2) Your project should not be your own.
3) Please play fair. I will be checking to ensure you commented on the blog post you mention here as your favorite 🙂 {be sure you tell them you came over from this party so I can easily find it!}

You have until midnight on Monday night to do this. I’ll draw a winner on Tuesday and announce it here.
