Crafting, DIY and LIfe
Mother’s Day 2013 is officially in the books {hope yours was a great one} which means it is time to turn out eyes towards Father’s Day. Gift ideas for dad can be a little harder so I’ve rounded up 10 great gifts that would be perfect for the dad in your life!
Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a fabulous week so far. I’ve spent the bulk of mine stuck on the couch with a knee injury. It has been less than fun to saw the least. BUT, it has given me more time to visit the links from the Pinworthy Projects Party. Today, I’m featuring YOU with a round up of some of the best links from last week’s party!
Before we get started, I want to remind you of the AWESOME social media link up going on right now! Today’s Let’s Connect Thursday is all about Twitter pages. Click over to link up yours and watch your Twitter following grow!
Now, let’s get started!

Did you notice the subtle change to the week’s post line up? The party features, which usually run on Thursday mornings, have been moved to Thursday afternoons!
Why? Because Thursday mornings are now filled with an awesome social media link party! Be sure to visit and link up…this week we are focusing on Facebook pages!
Don’t worry…to make it up to you, I’ve added a new category of party features: the last link up. Now, you can randomly be featured just by when you link up!
Now, let’s take a look at some of the awesomeness you all linked up last week at the Pinworthy Projects Party!

Do you wake up on Thursday and get excited to see the Pinworthy Projects Party features?
No? Just me?
Oh well…I do get excited because Thursday is my day to feature some of the amazing things you linked up to the Pinworthy Projects Party last week. And you all seriously know how to make some ridiculously delicious looking recipes, crazy awesome crafts and fantastic DIY projects. It gets so hard to choose each week…good thing Sam and Carrie pick features too {be sure to check them out}.
Now, let me stop rambling and get on to the Pinworthy Projects Party features for this week! You’ll also see these features on Twitter and Pinterest too so be sure you follow all three of the hosts!

I’ll be honest: This week is going by in a total blur and I almost didn’t get this post out! I know, I know…you guys always want to see the party features AND I always want to feature you. So, I busted my hump and made sure it got up…even if it is a little on the late side 
Let’s get to it…

Glazed Strawberry Peach Muffins from Lemon Tree Dwelling

I can’t wait to see what you all link up in tomorrow’s party! Each week gets better and better.
I’m prepping for Snap! and spending some much needed time with my little family. In place of dead air {screen?}, I thought it would be fun to share a few of my favorite posts from the past. Today, I’m sharing the my make your own kitchen storage project.
Do you remember the cake stand I made and re-purposed to store all of my kitchen soaps? Here it is in all of its loveliness
Let’s hear it for another flashback post! I chose this one because, as prepare for SNAP!, I know having a notebook handy is going to be super important! Why pay $$$ for the super cute ones when you can upcycle a notebook with some paint and stickers?
***********************************************
Back in February, I shared with you some of the items I had ordered and received from Pick Your Plum. They had little notebooks that weren’t pictured in that post I had picked them up from the daily flash site too.
They are so handy to keep in the car or in my purse but I wanted to dress up the plain brown cardboard front a little. Enter Martha…or at least her stencils.
Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a great week. Mine is flying by in the blink of an eye!
A quick announcment: There most like won’t be any party features next week. I may {a big MAY} be able to get them done before I leave for SNAP! but I seriously doubt it. So, don’t be surprised if you show up here on Thursday morning and find there are no party features to look over.
Of course, if I DO post them, I’ll let you know on Twitter and Facebook so be sure you are following me there.
Now, let’s take a look at the party features from last week’s awesome Pinworthy Projects Party.

Chalkboard Buckets from The Crafted Sparrow
My hair is on fire. Like almost literally…that is how crazy it is around here. I’ve got kid stuff followed by a husband out of town…followed by me out of town {SNAP!}…then, we roll right into our big neighborhood yard sale where I am hoping to unload about 1/2 of our belongings this year.
So, over the course of the next few weeks, you are going to see some flashback posts here so I can remind you of how bad my photography was/is of some of the fun projects I’ve worked on in the past. Don’t worry, they won’t all be flashbacks…I do have some new stuff thrown in there too.
Today, we start with one of my absolute favorites: chalkboard dipped wine glasses.
***********************************************
I was cruising around Pinterest the other day and stumbled across a great project that I knew I had to try!
We do a bunch of entertaining and so this would really be great for keeping everyone’s wine glasses straight. I used to have some of those little charms but they always get lost or broken. This seems like a perfect alternative as we always have chalk around.
Thanks so everyone who linked up to the party last week! I was so excited to see so many awesome ideas shared! Of course, being Thursday, it is time to check our party features!
