Friday Finds . . .

 


 A few of the wow moments, or things I discover each week that tickle my fancy.  I hope that they may inspire or tickle yours too!   

 












  








I just love these do it yourself Tote Bags.   They would come in so handy for all sorts, and I am thinking they would be fab to cart all of my stuff back and forth to church!  There is a complete Tutorial on SweetTmakes Three.  

I just adore this wall arrangement.  I found it on BHG.  You just got to love BHG!  1-Hour Projects.   There's a few different things that only take an hour or so to do.  This is my favourite one though.  

Style File.  There are a whole load of different projects for the garden, but this is by far my favorite, probably because it looks very easy to do.  What a fab way to cool off on a hot day!    

 Our garden is filled with Hydrangea.   We have never known quite what to do with them.  So far they have thrived on neglect.   We wait until the blooms are dried and then Todd cuts them all off.  How to prune and when, on Eclectically Vintage.   I felt her pain, even though I am sure her husband meant well.  lol  Don't they always?

Now this is a really nifty idea. High Heeled Cupcakes.  Wouldn't they be utterly charming at a shower or for a birthday?   I think they are adorable.  From Living Locurto.  (Monique, they have YOU written all over them!)

 There are ten fabulous back to school ideas for the kiddos on The 36th Avenue.  Everything from a desk organizer to a portable first aid kit, and everything in between!   Superdy duperdy!!

 Free Digital Papers from The Coffee Shop Blog!  Downloadable and so cute.   They're cherries!  I love anything with cherries on it!  She has a lot of other printable freebies as well.

 Well, I would think the number one reason I look fat in photographs is because I AM fat, duh . . .  but if I can pick up some tips on how to minimize that, I'm all for it!  Found on The Haute Girl.  I will have to remember this the next time someone wants to take my picture!

 A DIY Tiered Herb Garden.  It's a bit late for this year, but maybe next year I can get this done!  I just love it.  Found on Decor and the Dog.   The hardest part will be finding someone who can do it for me.   Todd is not a carpenter.

 Birthday Party Hat Cakes from BHG.   Yes, I do have a love for BHG.   These are so cute and they look really easy to do.   I think they would be a really big hit at any birthday celebration!  Bright and colorful!

And that's it for this week!  I hope you found something you like!

I was just saying to Todd yesterday how much better my thumb was.  Pretty much back to normal, and then this morning I wake up and it's clicking again and sore.   I don't know what I did to it during the night, but I did something.   I am a but upset with my self.  *grumble.*  

A thought to carry with you through today . . .

A thing of beauty is a joy forever:
its loveliness increases;
it will never pass into nothingness.

Cooking in The English Kitchen today  . . .  a delicious Toasted Sesame Chicken Pasta Salad!  This is so good.  I made it for our dinner yesterday and we both loved it!

Have a wonderful Friday!  I can't believe it is the first of August already!  This year is disappearing rather quickly!  We have the missionary lads coming for tea today!
