Be Inspired Features and Link Party #62

Happy Tuesday! Welcome back for features and party day!


 

 

If you read yesterday's post, you know why I wasn't outside painting! But at least I got to stay all warm and cozy inside checking out all of your amazing posts. Here are just a few that caught my eye.....

 

Last week, I featured this pretty spring mantel shelf from Laurel at The North End Loft.

 

 

Well this week, you get to see every beautiful detail of Laurel's new craft room. Come on in, you're going to love it!

 

Make Me Pretty Again shared a reclaimed wood herringbone pattern ceiling project that will knock your socks off! And to make it even more fun, that ceiling is vaulted!

 

  

Now check out these amazing Wedding Chairs from Dee at My Painted Stuff!

 

 

Melody from My Passion for Decor created this awesome Pottery Barn inspired desk with thrift store filing cabinets!

 

 

City Girl Arts shared this sunny yellow and charcoal combination milk paint dresser. Her mother-in-law gave her the ultimate compliment when she said, "It looks like it came out of a barn." That surely sounds like high praise to me!

 

  

Love this red hot cottage dresser from Restoration Redoux! If it ever stops snowing here, I need to try some bold colors!

 

 

Looking for a dessert idea for your Easter dinner? This Orange Sour Cream Pound Cake from Janet at Rosemary & Thyme looks beautiful and sounds delicious!
 

 

And how cute are these these DIY burlap carrots from Melissa at Daisy Mae Belle?

 

  

Melissa's home is always chock full of creativity and charm! You can check out her dining room all decorated for Easter here.

Springtime in Maryland

Just in case you are wondering what springtime in Maryland looks like .....

Wishing you a beautiful day, no matter what the weather brings your way!

Paper Mache Easter Eggs

Remember this pretty Easter vignette from Pottery Barn a few years back? It's still making the rounds on Pinterest.

 

 

I love the freshness of all the white with the pink blossoms. But it was the the Easter Eggs that caught Susan's eye here at Elizabeth & Co. Our long time friends might remember this project from our very first spring tag sale!

 

 

Susan picked up some paper mache eggs at Michaels.

 

She gave them a quick coat of creamy white craft paint.

Transfer letters were used to spell out Happy Easter.

 

After a spray of black metal paint, screw eyes were attached to the top of the eggs.

 

 

A little glaze gave them a nice aged look.

And a piece of jute string made them ready for hanging.

This project was super easy, quick and thrifty!

And of course totally adorable!

 

You still have a week before Easter, plenty of time to whip up a batch of your own!
They would look really cute spelling out Spring too!

Be Inspired Features and Link Party #61

Happy Tuesday! Welcome back for features and party day!
 

 

You would think that after 60 parties, picking features would be a piece of cake. Not true! Every week I am totally blown away by all the talent out there. You guys rock! Now here are just a few of the links that caught my eye this week .....

Don't you just love this gorgeous chair from Mimi at Blue Roof Cabin? She upholstered it with a drop cloth and made a darling pillow too!

 

  

This modern table gets a vintage feel from the grain sack inspired stripes over at Callie's Crafts!

 

 

 Can you believe this dresser started out with a seashell motif? Just check out it's new masculine lines from Holly Do. Now this is a total transformation!

 

 

Holly even used old leather belts from a thrift store to create the pulls!

 

 

I'm loving this industrial style end table that Allison from The Golden Sycamore built for her living room!

 

 

Susan from Sunflower Hugs shared this mustard yellow desk with just the prettiest details!

 

This dining room transformation from Babiole de Windsor has such a fresh, light and breezy feel ~ love it!

 

Spring is definitely in the air with this pretty sprinking can vignette from Nita at Mod Vintage Life. Did you notice those cute bunch of carrots?

 

 

And you know you don't actually need a fireplace to create a pretty mantel vignette, right? Laurel from The North End Loft decided to create her own mantel by hanging a pretty shelf in her craft room ~ sweet and so ready for spring!

 

 

And here's another creative problem solving girl.  Natalie from Sophisticated Yellow made some cute bunny napkins for her Easter table.

Wondering how they are going to make it through the washing machine after dinner? Nataie has that covered!
