Saturday Favorites

Saturday Favorites
my favorite day of the week
today's creative peeps
 are
 gonna knock your socks off!!

You all know my love of mouldings, right?
Well, Christina from No. 29 Design
took an old out of date look
 and transformed it into this beauty over her mantle-
Love this look-go check out the before
-genius-I tell you!

created this paper rose wreath
My obsessions over paper flowers, rosettes and wreathes
goes way back..
She even has a free template to download for the roses
OMG-I'm doing the happy dance!!
Handmade Paper Flower Wreath
Vivienne over at the V Spot
designed this incredible flowerpot
using a clay pot, some sculpey, glue and paint-
She shows a 6 step tutorial on the fab roses-
This is definitely one that's up my alley
I'm running over to Michael's today!!

Sarah, from Renewed Upon A Dream
created this with a $1 frame, thrift store sheet music,
modge podge and a stencil..
Love the results, don't you?


Brooke over at Start at Home
shows us her first attempt with chalk paint as well as the
planked wall in the background-
I'm overwhelmed by her creativity,aren't you?
Go check her out!!


So, there you have it-
this week's favorites!
Hope you had as much fun as I did!!

Take care, gotta fly-
