Friday's Frills

Before we proceed with today's post, remember, to go here and send me your questions for an upcoming post. I love to hear from you!


How many times have I said that I L.O.V.E. banners? Alot, I know.

Because I really love banners! Anytime, any place. I love them. 

Can you guess what today's frills is all about?

That's right. Banners!

I love this mini fabric bunting for a cake. Precious.

source

Filling a whole room with strands of beautiful fabric bunting would be pretty.

source

A birthday photo banner! Too cute! This is from Danyelle's birthday party from {dandee}. I love her blog! She has the cutest things!

 source

I love these colors. Look how cute that fence looks now! :)

source 

You can spruce up a chair or two with a banner as well!

 source

And I love this on the card! What a great way to use some of your paper or fabric scraps!

source

And I really fell in love with this mini "hello" banner greeting card.

It can be purchased at the Etsy shop, Reflects the Moon.

source

Have any of  you ever made a fabric bunting or birthday banner?  Send me the link or email me a photo because I would love to see them!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Friday's Frills

No Friday's Frills today. 

My week has been all out of sorts and I just didn't finish today's post as planned. 

I know things will get back to normal...I am just waiting. 

Enjoy your weekends, sweet friends.

I am so thankful that this blog opens up my world and you all are in it!

I just thought these were pretty photos that I found via Pinterest and I wanted to share them.

Happy Friday!

Friday's Frills

I was pretty excited about preparing today's post already but when I saw Erin's post about her awesome suitcase finds, I was really excited! Erin, I hope you find some suitcase inspiration here today! :)

I love these pretty earthy colors together. I think this would look so great at the end of a hallway or inside a foyer.

source

There are some really cute ways to use suitcases as tables and nightstands.

 source

source

And how cute are these at the end of the bed instead of using an ottoman or bench?

source

source 
 
You could store your linens in them! I thought this was such a great idea!
 

source

A chair!! Can you believe it? I was pretty impressed by this amazing creation!

 source

A medicine cabinet! Erin and I were both very impressed by this design! Whoever came up with this idea really knows how to think outside the box!

source

There were lots of ideas for using suitcases as beds for your pets. They were all so pretty and unique but this one from the Etsy shop, The Pop Stops Here was my personal favorite. 

 source

Okay, now this was my all time favorite find! I am now on a mission to create myself one of this super cute wrapping stations! I mean, isn't this just so precious?!!

source

You can have a cute place to store your craft projects and supplies.

source

And I thought this was pretty cute too for a small business or shop. Use the suitcase to display your merchandise. VERY cute!

source

Okay, everyone, I am off to find myself a good vintage suitcase! What about you?

And Erin, be sure and keep us updated on what on what you decide to do with your suitcases!

Friday's Frills

Do y'all love balloons as much as me? I love huge bundles of latex balloons. I think they make any occasion child-like and fun!

Enjoy!

Have a great weekend friends!

 Balloons at a wedding? Why not?!

source

 Love this!

source

Dior apparently likes balloons too. I know this ad campaign is a little old but I still think it is perfect! It is just so girlie and dreamy!

 source

And NieNie knows how to do balloons justice! How great is the family photo?

 source

Don't these balloons just create something magical at Christmas?! When I saw this photo on NieNie's blog, I just gasped! Ohhhh!

 source

Martha Stewart stands behind the power of balloons too.

(This is my all time favorite color combo!)

source

So pretty and fun!

source

And finally my absolute favorite balloon photo! Because I love all thing miniature, this spoke to my heart! ha!

So precious, right?!

source

I hope y'all had a great day! Grab a balloon this weekend. It will make you happy!

I promise.

Friday's Frills

I {heart} February. Love is in the air. There are so many awesome ways to tell someone that you love them! I mean I am good with the traditional hug and kiss but Valentine's Day gives us a reason to do that extra something special! Don't y'all think?

How crazy good are Ms. Martha's conversation heart cookies? So cute!! I think the precious presentation in the bags with the stitching makes them even more special!

Here is the recipe, if you are interested.

I love banners. I think they are so sweet and can be personalized so easily to make any party or celebration special. When I saw this little mini-banner in Mrs. Kwitty's Cottage shop on Etsy, I just about went crazy! How cute and so sweet. You think you are opening a normal Valentine's card but instead you pull out a this beautiful banner that you can put anywhere, anytime! Seriously, so cute. I love it to pieces!

source

As cold as it has been in most parts of the US (even here in the South!) we could all use these darling fingerless gloves. These were another Etsy find at Quid Essential. They are just so sweet and cozy!

source

And in a another Valentine's direction, look at these absolutely, perfectly sweet Valentine straws that Olivia Kanaley, from A Field Journal created. I can just imagine drinking some Lorina pink lemonade with them!

 source

And finally, my favorite way to toast Valentine's day, would be to drink a up of tea in these gorgeous & festive tea cups I saw them in the latest O Magazine. They are so precious and totally out of my price range but they melt my little tea cup lovin' heart! They can be purchased here.

source

i {heart} you all my sweet friends!

happy Friday everyone! 

Friday's Frills

Today's frills are all about beautiful areas to create beautiful things in. My parents are turning a section of the basement into a scrapbook workspace for me! I am so excited! I have been on the search for pretty work spaces and inspiring ideas. These are just a few finds that have made their way into my favorites folder!

I just love the bright, happy colors in this! I like the idea of having a small lamp handy for small projects too. I hadn't really thought about it until I saw this picture.

source

I loved the idea of using twine & clothespins to display finished projects or inspiring pieces. It adds a little something more than just a bulletin board & push pins. Don't you think?

source

I love these mason jars mounted to the wall. I have so many little odds and ends that I could put in them.

source

Of course Pottery Barn can do a craft room up so good!

source

And I love these next two photos. I love all the color, the shelves and labeled boxes. I have to have a spot for everything; otherwise, I just throw my things anywhere when I get done and that really doesn't work well.

source

And I know Martha uses chalkboard paint on the wall here but I am thinking I want to use it on the cabinets that my Dad is putting in for me!

source

Well, guys & gals, that is where my mind is at these days. I am making all sorts of plans for this workspace. I will definitely keep y'all updated.
Do any of you have a workspace for your hobbies? I would love to see them, if you have photos posted, please let me know! And if you have any ideas, I would love to hear them!

Have a great weekend, friends!
