BFF Open House Link Party

The Answer Is Chocolate

Hi all and Happy Friday Eve! Hope everyone's had a fantastic week. Let's see some features from last week's party!


Artsy VaVa shared another of her fabulous transformations. She was lucky enough to be gifted a milk can and look at the table she made with it! I am in love with the stenciling. 



I'm also in love with this pallet project from Lolly Jane. How cute is it?! 


Whether to treat yourself or someone else, how about a DIY Spa Kit? Check out the details at The Beauty Dojo.


Finally, nothing beats the simple elegance of a  perfect chocolate cake. This one was shared by Lou Lou Girls. YUM!

Happy Olympics August everyone! Hope your week has been going well and those of you dealing with crazy weather get a break soon. 

Here are some fun features from last week's party! 


The Mumster ( aka my Mom) and Mr. Chocolate LOVE maps. I mean they are borderline obsessed with them. So these crafty ( and educational)  ideas from Pat and Candy are super inspirational! 


I love coffee. Like A LOT. Probably too much. The guys at Crafty Lumberjacks do too and they even hand carved a stamp to match their moka pot!  Love the artwork they made for their coffee display and even more, that they made the stamp from something you might otherwise throw away.





We still have some Summer left or maybe you live in a temperate all year climate. A Pretty Fix has a great post on weatherproofing indoor art for outdoor use. 


Finally, Lolly Jane has a great way to get your S'more fix! Make an ice cream sandwich! 

Now on to this week's party!

Happy August. AUGUST! How did that happen? Hope everyone's had a good week. Mine was crazy busy but just enough time for a few features. 


First up, I am in LOVE with this farm house table makeover from Sugar and Succulents. You would pay a fortune for a table like this but this was a complete DIY!


Now, wouldn't this gorgeous Rope Handle Cloche look perfect on that table? I think so. Check out Anderson and Grant for the how-to. 


Paper Seedlings has been up to some more collage work and this piece is gorgeous! 


This week's Chocolate feature is also a Science lesson. Yes, Science and Chocolate!  Go to class at Sweet Meets Bake Shop

Now on to this week's party!

Hi all! I hope your week has been less chaotic ( MUCH less chaotic) than mine. It's been one of "those" weeks. Fortunately family is all good which is the most important thing and it's just work and this too shall pass ( if I say that enough it'll happen right?!) 

So straight party ; no feature chasers.

Hi all and happy Friday Eve. Hope those of you in the hotter than hot parts of the country are managing to stay cool. I'm very thankful that our PNW weather has returned to some sanity after a few years of very un-PNW heat waves! 

Here are some features from last week's party I hope will inspire you! 


Doreen from Altered Artworks finds the BEST things to re-purpose. This kitchen rack is no exception.


And Raven Would shared this gorgeous DIY wood batik wall decor piece. LOVE!


If you're looking to stay cool, you can't go wrong with these DIY popsicle recipes from One Little Project . YUM

And what's Summer without ice cream? And what's ice cream without hot fudge? I mean it's like Ethel without Lucy! I may or may not have even eaten hot fudge with NO ice cream.  Pat and Candy have you covered! 



Now on to this week's party!

Friday Eve again and how is it already several days into July?! Hope everyone had a lovely 4th. Our weather was not exactly Summery and they're now calling July "Jultober". Haven't quite figured out what that means but pretty sure it means rain rain rain. 

Let's see some wonderful ideas from last week's party: 


If you need a dose of sunshine in your life this Summery Lemon yellow cart from Altered Artworks should do the trick. What a great find and makeover! 


Another thrifted makeover shared was this Milk Can from Raven World. Would love to find one of these! 


One Little Project  shared this easy peasy DIY Whiteboard. These are great and green and save on post its! 


This week's chocolate feature combines two of my faves: Chocolate and a quote about chocolate from one of my favorite movies! From Sweet Meets Bake Shop Life's Like a Box of Chocolates Brownies!

OK on to this week's party!
