“Welcome Back to The Scoop Link Party #103”
Are you gearing up for Valentine’s Day?
I don’t really go all out for this particular holiday… but I did
create a Valentine Message Calendar. Did you happen to catch it yesterday?
Last year, I created a super simple Burlap “Love” Banner…
Friday I will be sharing a cute Printable along with some easy artwork.
Well, I hope to be sharing it, at least.
Eastern NC rarely gets anything but a dusting of snow, and this close
to the coast, even a “dusting” is few and far between.
But, my area is expecting a Winter Walloping starting tomorrow.
Rain, Sleet, Ice, then 10-11 inches of snow.
It’s going to be interesting. I just hope we do not lose our power.
This week, Anita with Cedar Hill Farmhouse is the C0-Host,
so I will now turn it over to her. I am so excited about this week’s
Guest Host – one of my dear, bloggy friends.
Hi, it’s Anita with Cedar Hill Farmhouse hosting
The Scoop this week.
I’ve been super busy lately with some very exciting things.
More on that later, but in the meantime,
I have two great chair projects from last week that I thought
you might enjoy. The first one is about sprucing up $5 thrift chairs
And the second one is about
making slipcovers for my dining room chairs.
Okay I could go on and on, but I know you are ready to get to the
linky party, so here is our guest host for this week.
Hi everyone! I’m Heather from Setting for Four and I’m so
excited to be here guest hosting ‘The Scoop’ this week!
I’m a military wife and Mom to two teen boys – our oldest is in
Military college and our youngest is in Grade 9. They are both
amazing sons and it such an honor to not only be a military
wife but also a military Mom! I started my blog 3 years ago,
baby steps first then full time in 2013. I love to DIY and decorate
my home inside and out, and create a stylish and comfortable
haven for our family of four! I also started my interior design career
last year and love helping others solve their design dilemmas and
beautify their homes! As a military family we have moved many,
many times and often have to be creative with fitting our furniture
in each of our homes. We purchased our lovely 6 year old home
two years ago and are in the process of painting it top to bottom,
updating the lighting and kitchen and decorating it room by room.
Here are some of my recent posts:
How to Remove Carpet and Makeover Your Stairs
How to Make an Adirondack Chair – the Easy Way!
I also offer online decorating services including Mood Boards,
sourcing and answer questions via email; here is how I helped
Raeleen with her decor dilemma:
Reader Redesign – Fireplace Makeover
Please stop by Setting for Four and say hello!!!
(You can also follow along with me here!)
I have to admit it was super difficult to pick the features from all
of your amazing DIY’s and beautiful projects from last week!
I hope that you find my feature picks as inspiring as I do!
First up, these No Sew Uphostered Chair Makeover from
My Creative Days. I love the vintage floral fabric that Lindsay
used on these estate sale chairs! Paired with the white paint these
chairs are simply gorgeous!
Next, this fabulous Ikea Bookcase/Chest of Drawers Hack from
Tasha at A Designer Trapped in a Lawyer’s Body (love your blog
name Tasha!). Tasha took some basic Ikea pieces and with
ingenuity and paint turned them into these custom furniture
pieces for her twin girls’ bedroom!:
Graphic art is so hot right now and I love Angela’s metallic
DIY Ampersand Valentine Art from Life in Velvet. This is such
an easy DIY and would be perfect for a Picture Gallery Wall or
part of a table vignette like this:
Rachel at Maison de Pax turned what she referred to as her
‘Swiss Chalet’ library bookcases into these trimmed out beauties
with DIY Decorative Molding! Check out the step by step tutorial
to see how she did it!
…and let’s end the features with something sweet! Like these
yummy delicious Oreo Cookies and Cream Brownies that
Beth shares at The First Year Blog. Make with Cookies and cream
Hershey kisses and Oreo Cookies – oh my!
It’s been so much fun being part of ‘The Scoop’ this week!
I adore all of‘The Scoop’ host bloggers: ladies, you are all
so creative and inspirational!!
…and it’s been an honor to select these fun and inspirational
features from such talent linked up last week!
Thanks,Heather, for sharing your inspirational pics and
being our Guest Host.
