It's the weekend & you know what that means... it's time to Strut Your Stuff!  

Last week we shared our favorite blog posts from the week & there were so many great ones! Here are some features from last week's party:

Kris from Vie a la Table shared these adorable baby gifts she made for her best friend! SO cute! She even shares where she found the tutorials! Another reason I need to learn how to sew pronto!

The Lovely Poppy shared pictures of her adorable booth from a craft show she participated in!


<------------- This picture inspired me to find an old wire hanging basket to use in my new studio space! 

I will have limited space and thought this was a PERFECT and cute solution for some more storage! I am thinking my twine, some tools and my fabric will look perfect in one of these!

The Hollie Rogue shared her day in a photo journal! Such a great idea! One of these days I have to try that!

It was hard for me to limit to just one, because I LOVE wearing sweaters, scarves, cute hats & layering...but I have to say I get the most excited about wearing Boots when the weather starts to get cool!

I love ankle boots, mid high boots, high boots, brown boots, black boots, grey boots, red boots, blue boots (you get the idea) I love wearing them with jeans, dresses, skirts, leggings, shorts... I can't wait to start wearing boots!!

I want all of these Blowfish Boots for Fall!

 DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA FOR FUTURE PARTIES? Leave a comment!!

Strut Your Stuff Saturday...Revised!

In case you didn't know, I host a weekly link party, Strut your Stuff Saturday, every week! And it has not been doing as well as I had hoped...so I thought about it, and decided maybe it is because not everyone (including myself) has a lot of time to "make" something each week. 

So I thought we could change it up!  How about we do different things each week, sometimes it could be a recap of your week in pictures, sometimes a DIY project, sometimes a topic I pick, or maybe one you pick!! I think it will be fun!! 

A Screen Shot of some of my Pinterest Boards.

So for this week, I thought we could share some lovely things we have found on Pinterest! I LOVE that site, it is a new addiction for me!! {You can find me on Pinterest here} 

I find so much inspiration & good ideas on Pinterest! Plus, it is an amazing way to store all of my inspiration in one place!

Don't have a pinterest account? Email me! I can send you an invite! ( I only have 6 invites to give out so first come, first serve)

Here's what we will do this week:

Let's share our pins..pick a few to highlight, make a collage of your favorites, add a screen shot of your boards like I did...whatever you would like to do! Then, let's follow each other too! 


What do you think?? Do you like the new idea?DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA FOR FUTURE PARTIES? Leave a comment!!
