Is it Thursday already? Phew. That just flew by. I guess it always does when you're busy. This week is Education Week and I've been so busy at the kid's school. I'm always encouraging a love of learning in the kids so I figure if I make a presence it helps. No problems with my daughter but my son is needing some work. He's getting there though and I'm feeling very proud of his progress. So, onto last week's most hit, not food related link ups.
Check this out. How many old umbrellas have you got lying around the house? I've got about 4 of them, just taking up room but I'd love to make thes bags. Great for wet swimming things, raincoats and days at the beach. Just fantastic. Thanks so much Jill from Creating My Way To Success.
How about these pallet garden boxes from Tyesha at The House Made Home? She found inspiration from Pinterest and just whipped them up with the help of her lovely husband. The original idea was for wall shelves, which I absolutely love. Now I've just got to find some pallets. Thanks Tyesha. Great idea!

Vanessa from Nifty Thrifty Things has been at it again with a lovely idea for fabric tape. I could just imagine this jazzing up a plain paper wrapped package. I'm thinking some lovely Christmas fabric for Christmas gifts. Thanks, as always, Vanessa, for your lovely contributions.
Feel free to grab my 'featured' button. And now, for this week. Can't wait to see what you've all been working on. All contributions welcome. Anything to help us to THRiVE and save a couple of bucks!



Thanks for hosting have a wonderful day : )
ReplyDeleteI've been out of town (and bare-bones blogging) for a few weeks but I'm back now and glad to be back at your parties. I love the 'new' look - even though I know it's not really new anymore ;) Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for featuring my umbrella bags!!! And of course for hosting each week! Have a good one!
ReplyDeleteHello dear friend. Well I finally got something posted so I can join up this week. Love your standouts. Especially the nifty thrifty fabrics and cute clothes pin holders. So clever.
ReplyDeleteI see I missed your last pasta post. It looks SO yummy. But everything you put on your blog is always wonderful. And you have great photos. You are getting to be one terrific photographer. You ought to do food photograhy for others. You have the gift girlfriend!!

ReplyDeleteHello my lovely Anne! I'm drooling over your BLT salad! Hubbs and I look forward to this time of the year and the coming tomato season, because we're addicted to BLT sandwiches and yet, I've never really made a BLT salad. Thanks to your gorgeous photos and recipe, that's about to change!
ReplyDeleteThank you (as always) for hosting this lovely party today!(I didn't get around to last week's Thursday & Friday parties so I've linked up 3 things this week) Have a perfectly wonderful weekend, my dear! XO Mary
