Good Morning!
Well, sometimes the best laid plans don’t pan out, isn’t that the truth? I ended up suffering a migraine for 2 whole days over the weekend. Not very conducive to a productive weekend to say the least. So, on Sunday I chose to help Dave work on the kitchen and I continued to paint woodwork (which I hate to start, but once I get that first layer of paint on –OH, BABY– I can already see my efforts are going to pay off!)
I started doing the door frame of the coat closet. Since I had to take the door off and all, I decided that next week for DIY Monday I am going to show you how I am going to take my lack luster closet and turn it into something fabulous…I hope!
I would love to be showing you a DIY today, but since it wasn’t doable this weekend I thought I’d feature some awesome Valentine’s Day projects for all of us to copy-cat!
Sarah at Lacquer & Linen made these adorable candy jars. I love those arrows and may be stealing that idea for our V-day dinner we do every year. Check out the details here.
Kristin at the Hunted Interior did a fun spin on a banner. I love that she used photos!
I am totally going to make these pom-pom monsters with my boys! So fun! I love it when there are fun ideas for Valentine’s Day that boys love too! For details go to Jill’s blog Create.Craft.Love.
Tomorrow is Great Reads. Check back to see who is featured and all their great projects!
