Ten Things I Love At Thursday Favorite Things

Hello and welcome back to Thursday Favorite Things! I am blessed to be joining Katherine at Katherine’s Corner and a wonderful group of bloggers as a co-hostess for this fantastic weekly link party for bloggers and blog readers too! If you are looking to grow your blog, make new friends, and be inspired each week, this is the place to be. *Bloggers: If you would like a chance to be featured, please leave me a comment with the number of your link up. We can’t wait to see what you have to share this week! To start off the party, let’s take a look at what I have been up to recently:

 

Over the past couple of weeks I have been putting together a lovely lavender themed gift basket for my mom for Mother’s Day full of all-natural gifts. I can’t wait to give it to her on Sunday! It is not Mother’s Day specific, so if you are looking for gift ideas for any special occasion, or if you just love lavender products, be sure to check out the full post.

 

Last week I participated in the Beautiful Bedrooms Tour and shared my Cottage Bedroom Reveal. I only had two weeks to get ready for the tour! This week I shared a follow up post with all the details of the makeover process. Read all about it in A Quick And Easy Bedroom Makeover.

 

 

Yesterday I participated in the Thrifty Chicks Unusual Wreath Challenge! I created a Vintage Door Knobs and Hardware Wreath. It was really fun to make, and it gave me an excuse to play around with my vintage junk. You can see more of my wreath and the other Thrifty Chick bloggers’ wreaths in my post.

 

 

Now on to the features from last week’s party!

1. I love…a great furniture makeover!

    Thank you for hosting the party Amber. Since it’s Spring I thought I’d share how we repurposed a bicycle wheel to make a Tree of Life (#96).
