Places to Visit!

I found this delightful blog thru Pinterest

and I have added it to my list of favorites!

I love Susan's large photos, her instructions and tutorials,

and the happiness her site brings to my senses.

Go visit and leave her a comment.

We heart comments!

Naps on the Porch.

The title automatically relaxes me {smile font}

Her latest post?

Tablescapes!

Potentially beautiful.

Again, through Pinterest (I'm on there!) with her ideas for

10 headboards!! Too cute! Gloria grabbed me

with that idea. From there, I went to the right side

and began clicking on her other tags. Yeah, I stayed

there awhile. That's a good thing, when you find more than

a dozen reasons to keep reading and gawking.

 Again, you'll be glad to visit Potentially beautiful ~

I've already mentioned her latest post,

here's my favorite pic!

and there are nine more to see!

Sweet Kate is not only fighting Lupus,

but doing it bravely with the grace of God,

and a man that loves her.

She is also a lover of home decor, life,

and items that become simple beauty.

Salvage Dior will touch her heart

and your 'I can do it myself!' vein.

Her latest post is the latest on her Lupus battle

and the man that loves her through it.

I'm sure they would appreciate our prayers ~

The author of this fashion blog

is the daughter of a dear friend of mine!

Christen loves to copy designer looks

with vintage and thrift store finds.

I think you'll be surprised at how well

this young adult puts together charming outfits.

I know I'll be looking differently when I visit

my favorite consignment shops!

fashionplate cheapskate.

Go, Christen!!

Here's her latest ~ packing her bag for a road trip!

and meet HGTV's newest member!

And I'm her proud second grade teacher!

Cristi Curlee Holcombe ~

I am so excited for this author!

Not only was I her second grade teacher and fell in love

not only with her and her parents,

but her brother that followed.

Cristi has worked hard and owns

her own interior design business.

She will be co-hosting a new HGTV show

that  begins May 12th!! Elbow Room!!

I am beyond thrilled for her and her precious family

and look forward to seeing that cute little strawberry blonde

all grown up and on television, on one of my favorite channels!

Way to go, Cristicurleelocks. I'm so proud of you!

I love her latest post showing how to duplicate a lamp

for a lot less green paper {wink font}

Have a weekend filled with love, laughter, and prayers for America. My heart is saddened by what I hear but strengthened for I know Who is in control, Who will always be in control, and Who I believe in. Our Lord may allow bad things to take place, but only good and true things come from Him. You can bet He will take the bad and use it to glorify His name and make His presence known. I rest in His Grace and Mercy, and His promise that He is in charge and that Satan will be banished for eternity. Blessings to you and yours ~
