Friday Favorites

I have a ton going on in my brain lately, but nothing that I can really share. So let’s take a look at some things from around blogland that have made me smile lately.

Missy at It’s Almost Naptime is a very funny and passionate lady. I love reading her posts. I am STILL thinking about this post called I don’t want my children to be happy from over 2 months ago. You should definitely read it!

On a less serious note, I picked up a couple of nearly new toss pillows at a garage sale this week for only $2 each and I want to cover them and use them in our living room chairs. I’m thinking about doing something similar to this pillow from Just another hang up.  She has a bunch of cute pillow ideas.


Need a rug, but don’t want to shell out some big bucks for it? Here is a totally clever idea. High Heeled Foot in the Door used a rubber rug backing, a drop cloth and a couple yards of fabric to create this awesome rug. Sweet idea!



I {heart} this quilt from Piece-N-Quilt. The colors. The ruffled edge, the shapes and flowers. I am NOT a quilter {no patience},but if I was………I would totally make this. She has a tutorial if you are a quilter and you wanted to make me one.


 
I love cool whip because it’s all creamy and yummy and I also hate it because it’s full of all nasty stuff and if you think about that while your eating it….it will gross you out. I never knew you could make your own. It’s not exactly the same and it’s not good for everything you might use cool whip for, but I think I will definitely try it. The recipe is at Lynn’s Recipe Adventures.
