Happy Friday Eve, all! I can't believe we're almost at the end of June already and you know what today marks? SIX MONTHS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!! This is not a drill. Time seems to speed up even more from here on out. 

Speaking of which, I was in my happy place this week when I stopped in Michaels (a happy place given!) and (I know this will make some eyes ROLL) they have HALLOWEEN! EEK! 

I even did a post about it! 

Michaels Halloween Premiere

But yes, I know it's still Summer, and there were some very fun projects shared at last week's party so let's take a look at a few!

Let's start with this GORGEOUS Lane Cedar Chest Update from Petticoat Junktion. You really have to see the transformation. We're watching the show "Castle Impossible" on HGTV, and it looks like a piece that would fit in one of the rooms! 

Fresh Vintage by Lisa S shared how to transform vintage linens into a Vintage Linen Purse. 

Handmade by Amalia shared how to use fresh flowers to make these BEAUTIFUL Floral Cookies. I wholeheartedly agree with her post title: "Life is Short. Eat the Cookie". 

Finally, I keep seeing the "dot cake" trend everywhere. Walking on Sunshine has miniaturized it with these Mason Jar Chocolate Chip Dot Cakes. Why is everything more fun in miniature? 

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

What happens when you thought you hit the confirm button on your post and it DOESN'T? Oops!

Happy Friday Eve, (already!) again, Creative Peeps. I hope everyone's had a good week. We will skip mine, which has been...let's go with frustrating...and leave it at that! 

We'll jump straight into the party and share some lovely inspiration from last week instead!

My French Twist shared this F A B U L O U S Bar Cart Makeover! Love the pop of color it adds. Beautiful and functional! 

My Thrift Store Addiction shared a beautiful gift idea with these Rooted With Love homegrown gifts. Packaged creatively, and beautifully! 

Summer is Lemonade season, and what better way to have fun with it than these Lemonade-Themed Name Craft Tags from Simple Everyday Mom. 

Finally, whether you're hosting a Fourth Party or not, these Sweet S'more Treats are perfect and adorable! From Walking on Sunshine. Printable Gift Tag included. 

Thank you to everyone who linked up, and as always, thank you for choosing to share your talent here. 

As we celebrate a long weekend, remembering those who served and made the ultimate sacrifice.

Happy Friday Eve Creative Peeps! I hope everyone is managing to stay cool since it's HOT everywhere. Even though we think we're acclimated to the desert, for some reason we're both feeling the heat more this year. 

I also hope everyone who celebrated had a nice Father's Day and the fathers in your lives felt loved and appreciated. We took a day trip over to Tombstone (that one...I'm Your Huckleberry Tombstone) which is a fun drive from us and picked up some fudge from our favorite place there FALLEN ANGEL SWEET SIN PARLOR and then spent a quiet day at home on Father's Day talking to our son and with Mr. Chocolate getting his favorite Nachos for dinner. 

It's hard to believe that July Fourth is around the corner but it is! Here are some fun ideas from last week's party to celebrate!

Darcy and Brian shared these fun Popsicle Stick Rockets, fun for adults and kids alike to make!

Sonata Home Design shared a perfect for Summer entertaining idea: Reversible No Sew Placemats! 

Walking On Sunshine Recipes shared yet another twist on Charcuterie with these Patriotic Charcuterie Cups! 

Finally, how cute are these Red, White, and Blue Pudding Shots from Ann's Entitled Life ? What a great dessert and/or addition to a dessert table! 

Thanks to everyone who linked up and wishing you a wonderful weekend! Stay hydrated.

FEBRUARY! Happy new month already. Happy Black History Month, Love Month, Cardiac Awareness Month, Mardi Gras Month and more! It's hard to believe we've already completed a full month of a new year. It's Bead and Gem Show season in Tucson which is HUGE. Numerous venues all over town, each one an experiences. People from all over the world come bringing gems, minerals, and stones also from all over the world. If there is something in this space that you're looking for and can't find it, it doesn't exist. I've been to three venues and going to another today. 

This week I shared a Tiered Tray Valentine's Vignette and a fun Valentine's Shadow Box. 

Valentine's Day is just two weeks away and you've all been busy getting ready. Let's take a look at some of the awesome projects you've shared. 

Master Pieces of My Life shared a collection of beautiful Tablescapes perfect for Valentine's Day!

If you have someone who LOVES reading, then check out these Valentine Heart Bookmarks from Sum of Their Stories. 

Fun a Day has some fabulous Straw Art ideas that are great for kids or adults! 

Finally, how special would someone feel waking up to these Valentine's Biscuits from Walking on Sunshine? Yum!

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