Sensational Sunday Love Links!!!

Hello, sweet friends!!!  I hope you all had an amazing Valentines day!!!

 I know it doesn't sound very romantic, but hubby and I spent most of our day working on the foyer and upstairs hallway.  First we tore the drop down ceiling off- scraped MORE wallpaper (yes the ceiling was wallpapered too)-and prepped the walls for paint.  Later, we enjoyed some well deserved relaxation-(and maybe a glass or two of wine), along with our traditional steak and shrimp dinner.  

With all the work left to do on this project-I definitely needed some inspiration and good old fashioned eye candy to keep motivated. Thankfully, there was plenty of both this week!!!

Here are my favorites:


1. Favorite kitchen-It absolutely HAS to be this one on HGTV's Fixer Upper this week!!!





2. Favorite 'up-cycle'(s)-Yes, there were two-and since I love them both.......I couldn't choose just one!

If you haven't seen Carlene's post you should stop over and visit.  You will NOT believe it what she used to make this SUPER creative (and lovely) photo display!!


How gorgeous is this planter Yvonne created using items she already had!!


3. Favorite dishes- I'm drooling over Kathleen's brown transferware.  And her hutch....oh my!!!!


4. Favorite mirror- I've been wanting a huge mirror to fill in all the space we now have in our upstairs hallway, and I LOVE the rustic warmth of this one. Sadly- there is NO way I could afford this price tag.  But.... I have a little secret that I'm hoping to share with you all soon-so cross your fingers-I just might get my wish!


5. Favorite DIY- I'm thinking of something like this light fixture for our farmhouse kitchen.  I'll definitely be searching for  old milk funnels the next time I'm out to the farm!!!


6. Favorite furry friend pic- No words are needed-right????

7.  Favorite Recipe- I love trying new recipes-and this one had me at garlic and brown sugar!!! I can't wait to make it for dinner tonight!!!

8. Favorite tablescape-  With the temperatures dropping below 0 here- I'm SO looking forward to Spring!  For me-this year it will all be out simple, yet lovely decor.

 
9. Favorite quote-

Wishing you all a SENSATIONAL Sunday!!


Blessings and hugs,
