Before we get to this week's link party, I'd like to share our featured posts that were shared with us this past week. 

First up Julie from The Farm Life shared with us a great idea for crafters. She created craft go-bags that she can bring with her from day to day so that when she finds herself with a little down-time, she can work on her DIY projects. All of us have those days when we have to go to doctor's appointments, to take our children to practices, or, horror of horrors, to go to the DMV! There's a lot of waiting, so why not utilize that time to be productive but also to pass the time having fun with one of your craft projects packed in a size appropriate bag, all ready to go when you head out the door. Check out her post for further instructions.

This post shared with us by Shelley from Calypso in the Country gives you a tutorial for making a DIY cane wrapped vase. This is a great piece to bring a little summer into your home. It's a quick and easy project, but makes a big impact on your summer home decor. She even made two small votive vases to match!

Memorial Day is coming up, and I love adding patriotic decor to my home. This DIY flag wreath from Ann's Entitled Life is just the ticket. I've made similar ones, and they are so easy to do. If you have French or balcony doors, make one for each door. Add some string lights, a patriotic banner, and some citronella candles and you have the perfect setting for outdoor get-togethers over the summer!

Farmhouse decor is all the rage today, and some of the price tags reflect that! Sarah from Must Have Mom has a solution for that. She bought some thrift store items and upcycled them using her Cricut to have the farmhouse look for less. She shows you how to create adorable signs, a riser, and the cutest flower container from an Ikea bin.

Finally Carol at Comfort Spring Station updated her faux orchid in just minutes. I love plants and flowers indoors, but I kill every single one I've ever had. Faux plants can be quite expensive, so when you invest in one you need to be able to keep it around. Carol's had a dated woven basket for the container, and she wanted to update it to a more sleek, modern feel. Check out her post to see how she did just that, and changed the entire look of her side table!

Thursday Favorite Things. Share NOW. #linkyparty. #TFT #thursdaayfavoritethings #eclecticredbarn

Happy Thursday! I want to apologize for not responding to comments from last week. As you may remember, I went to Pittsburgh to spend Mother's Day with my Mom, so I didn't have much time to answer comments. I hope you forgive me. 

I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day and your week has been going well. It has been nice to be back home, but it was hard to say goodbye to my Mom. 

Many of my features come from you my commenters. Don't forget to leave your Linkup Number or Post Title so I can find you and you could become one of my featured commenters next week.

Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop

Welcome to Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop

Happy Wednesday dear friends. I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day. I had a wonderful day with my Mom. The weather was awful, it rained and was cold but we had fun anyway. My trip up north to see her, seemed to fly by. I wish I could see her more often. 

I hope you have a great week ahead.

UZI Tactical Utility Pen

UZI Tactical Utility Pen

I don't know about you, but I carry many different tools in my purse. - measuring tape, screw driver, scissors, to name a few. It seems like I always need something when I am at a flea market, garage sale or hardware store. 

When I was in Pittsburgh last week, my Mom and I were at the hardware store trying to buy some screws we need to attach a new mirror. I needed to measure them for length. Not to worry, I had this incredible tool in my purse that would do the trick - a UZI Tactical Utility Pen. (I received this from Lazer Designs, but all opinions our my own. )
