I was so touched by the email I received from one of my sponsors, Leen the Graphics Queen, today.

She asked me if I would be able to mention on my blog a way that she and her husband would like to help out the victims of the recent tornado outbreaks.

I think they came up with a great idea.

I want to share with you the post that was written on their blog.

 

 

Like many people, Eileen and I are deeply saddened by the loss of lives and homes in the south this week from the tornado outbreaks. We are feeling so blessed that our immediate area wasn’t impacted.

Over breakfast this morning, we were discussing this and how we wish there was something we could do to help. 

We decided that the best way we could help is to involve YOU! 

We will donate 100% of the proceeds of our Number Decals to the victims.  We’re paying the shipping so every cent of your purchase goes directly to the victims now through Sunday.

Number Decal

Order as many as you like & get cute decals while helping others.

Thanks so much for helping Eileen and I do what we can for the victims of this weeks tornado outbreaks. We truly appreciate it!

I think this is a win-win situation.

We get to enjoy these beautiful number decals and help tornado victims at the same time.

I can think of a million ways to use these numbers.

I’m ordering some, will you?




Best DIY Projects Highlights

Happy Friday!

It’s 5:26 am, and I am happily watching the Royal Wedding.

I love this stuff!  The tradition, the history, the pomp and circumstance.  The romance….

I’m giddy!

My husband, of course, is sleeping soundly in the bed.  :)

I wanted to take a second to share some highlights from last month’s “Best DIY Projects of March”.

There were 108 amazing projects linked up last month.

I loved seeing your “BEST”.

Of course, I had to share this first project…it’s burlap!

I love this ruffled burlap lampshade that Angie made at Red Cupboard Design.

Elyse from Loving Your Space did a fabulous job redoing her laundry room.  You should see the “before!”

Check out these beautiful DIY chalkboard backed open cabinets that Katie at Creatively Living Outside The Box completed.  They turned out fabulous!

Carmel, my fellow Kentuckian from Our Fifth House, created these fabulous DIY Stenciled Drapes and provides a great tutorial of how you can do it too.

I love this Pallet Farm Table Desk that Donna made over at Funky Junk Interiors.  But of course, I love everything that Donna creates!  She is so truly talented.

This piece just makes me happy!  Isn’t that spring green gorgeous?  This lovely re-do was complete by Katie at Impatiently Praying for Patience.

Are you as amazed at the talent out in blogland as I am?

I get so inspired when I look through these linky parties.  Thank you so much for linking up!

Saturday evening, I will be posting the linky party for the “Best DIY Projects of April”.

Remember, you can only link up one project…your BEST of the month.

Also, please only link up DIY projects that are related to home decor or home improvement.

See you there!

 

As a side note, I am having a Elmer’s Craft & Tell Party at my house on Sunday, May 1st at 3:00 pm.  If you are a local blogger and you would like to come, I have a few spots left.  Just leave me a comment.  It will have to be on a first come, first serve basis.  I would love to meet you!
