Friday Favorites Feature ::Weekend Bloggy Reading::

Business first: The winner of the fabulous Designer Blogs Custom Blog Button Giveaway is:

#26- Lynette from Get Your Craft On. Please email so I can get you in touch with Designer Blogs! Thanks to everyone who entered.


If you're looking for some good reading this weekend, here are a few of my favorite posts from Blogland this week:


~Amanda's Ballard Designs Knock-off at Imperfectly Beautiful:

~The directions to make an adorable Cupcake Tote are easy. Looks like it can be easily tailored for other holidays.


~Linda shared a photo of her latest shoe revamp creation...zipper ruffles! I likes it.


~Morning T's World Tour Wine Tasting recap...this girl knows how to throw a delightful party!
{I would show the photo of the chocolates!}


~Speaking of chocolate, if you head over to see Kate at Centsational Girl, she'll show you how to make your own Sweetly Packaged Chocolate Candy. Her gorgeous photos will have you drooling in no time!


~Melissa had a sweet Valentines Day craft featured this week...great if you're tired of your Scrabble game. I know what's going on my Spring yard sale list.

~If you're a LOST fan like me, you'll love the video posted over at Sussing Out LOST. This one contains a bunch of clips with all of the nicknames Sawyer likes to use. 

~Jen shared a tutorial on how to make burlap napkin rings over at Tatertots and Jello. Fabulousness!!


~Richella's beautiful Love (actually) post this morning brought tears to my eyes, but a smile to my heart. Please read it!

~ If you missed the Decorating Dilemmas party, head over and have some fun playing design consultant.

Whatcha up to this weekend? 

The girls and I have an impromptu Valentines Day party/playdate/lunch to attend this morning...they are so excited to get out of the house. Another birthday dinner, some more laundry, and some time spent with a good book round out my weekend. Hope yours is great!

{Happy weekend bloggy reading!}

  1. Burlap napkin rings?? I haven't seen this post--thanks for the link!

    I'm so glad to hear that you're going to a playdate this morning. . . that must mean that you can actually get out of your house and navigate the streets up there! How much snow did y'all end up with?

    Hope T's recovery is going well. . . and that your sanity is remaining intact. :)

    Have a great weekend!

  4. I love your Friday features. It's so much fun to go to a new to me blog to see a cute idea.

    Will T go back to work this coming week? I hope he's feeling good and all healed up by now.

  5. Congrats to the winner of your fab giveaway!
    I can't wait to check out the blog posts you mention (loving those ruffle/zipper flats) and thank you SO much for including my wine tasting post. Unfortunately I'm always so rushed before those things that I don't leave enough time for photos so I was disappointed in the quality AND I didn't get pics of any of the yummy food.
    Happy V-Day weekend to you Amanda.
    Hugs~

  6. Love the Scrabble craft!

    How did you get the image of the random.org results box? I've tried to do that but never figured it out.

I love to hear your feedback! Please feel free to leave comments...just don't send me spam asking me to buy stuff off your website! I've got three kids and no money to purchase your magic weight-loss pill or bust enhancement, or whatever else you might be selling. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! :)
