Weekend Favorites

Ooh, this week’s mosaic is bursting with summer goodness, don’t you think? I can’t wait until school is over and we can jump right in and enjoy!

The mosaic below represents other people’s pictures that spoke to me this week on Flickr and Instagram. Click on the titles below the mosaic to get a better look at the images and see more from the photographers who made them.

Links

Here are a few interesting things from around the web that grabbed me this week:

  • Rosemary Mint Shaving Cream – a homemade gift idea from Food for My Family. My husband uses an electric razor, so this wouldn’t really work for him for Father’s Day, but maybe you know someone who enjoys shaving cream? Actually, I am thinking of making a batch for my legs…
  • How To Wash & Whiten Yellowed Pillows – from One Good Thing by Jillee. If your bedroom pillows resemble the Before picture (mine do!) you might want to throw them in the washing machine with this homemade cleaning solution.
  • Make an EARPHONE HOLDER (…from a mint container) – a DIY from Make It & Love It. This is too cool. And how nice would it be to have ear buds that don’t get tangled up in the bottom of your bag? I know I’d like that…
  • The Lazy Quilters Quilt – No Measuring Required! – a tutorial from Tidbits. I can get behind pretty much anything with the word Lazy in the title, especially if it’s as gorgeous as this quilt.

[bctt tweet=”Favorite links this week: Shaving cream, pillow restoration, upcycled candy boxes, lazy quilting!”]

Have a great weekend!

But if anywhere is going to have some moisture and vibrancy during a drought, a swamp is. After work, I went to a part of the Great Swamp that I don't usually visit. I was looking for some big pink flowers to focus on and zoom into, and while I did find them, I liked this wide angle view better.

          • TWiP: Still Summer (2017)
            Well, that's a relief. It's not all crochet blankets in neutral colors this week. This week we had the pool! The beach! A new cast-on in brightly-colored yarn! And a tiny plaid sewing project. Good times.
