BFF Open House

 


Greetings all and Happy Weekend Eve! I hope everyone's had a creative week. I know the Midwest got blanketed with more snow and cold so I hope you're staying warm and dry! Here in the desert, I think allergy season may be starting up. Ugh! 

It's clear that the stores have made their jump to Spring and Easter! I was in Walmart two days after Valentine's Day and BAM, Spring and Easter decor was everywhere and they have some cute stuff! 

This week I shared a couple of altered cigar box projects I had a lot of fun making and I really love repurposing things. 



Nothing says Spring like flowers and Crazy Little Love Birds has a lovely way to repurpose a jar to hold them with this DIY Flower-Embellished Glass Jar Makeover.


Sometimes, you love a piece but just want to freshen it up. Via A Ray of Sunlight comes How to Paint Furniture with Chalk Paint in a guest post by Breath of Life Design! 


Sonata Home Design shared a wonderful tutorial to make a bold statement piece in the style of artist Piet Mondrian using faux stained glass supplies. Mr. Chocolate is a huge Frank Lloyd Wright fan and this would work with his style too! 


Finally, alchemy happens when you combine chocolate and raspberry and they come together in these mouth-watering Raspberry Truffle Brownies from The Kitchen Is My Playground.

Thanks to all who linked up and can't wait to see what you've been up to this week!
