This Double Layer Circle Skirt from Jamie at Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom is so super cute!
It’s obvoiusly perfect for twirling!

We have a great tutorial for Dip Dyed Hair from Margaret at Chica es Artistica. How fun is this for a cute summer style?!

I am so in love with these Patriotic Party Favors from Sheryl at Lady Behind the Curtain!
She made these for Memorial Day – but she has a great tutorial so you could create them for the 4th of July or any party!

Ok. Seriously. How cute are these? They are little Monster Lovey Blankets by Sarah at Repeat Crafter Me!
They have the cutest little faces! She has all the instructions so you can make your own. Or some for your kids.

Um. Hi. BBQ Chicken Potato Skins? Ok. Sign me up. These are the creation of the fabulous Lyuba from Will Cook for Smiles.
She made these for a sweet family movie night – it looked like a blast!

Cheryl from Sew Can Do linked up some super helpful Tips for Sewing with Knits – without a serger.
Go check out her stitch suggestions – plus some great info on twin needles!

We are just full of awesome Cheryls this week. Cheryl from That’s What Che Said created this super pretty DIY Infinite Water Fountain!
She has a really clear tutorial too – so you can whip up one by Father’s Day! How fun is that!

And last up – something to tempt us all – Vanilla Bean Cupcakes with Cocoa Buttercream Frosting from Stephen and Natalie at Life Made Simple!
These look amazing!

Wow – are you inspired or what?? Thanks for linking up everyone!

Ready from some Highlights of the Week?? Me too!

Flamingo Toes and SewinGirl - The house has basically turned into a sewing sweat shop. Quilts in progress everywhere, dresses cut out, new projects are being planned . . . it’s crazy. Occasionally meals are eaten and laundry is done – but not often. Sleep? Forget it. I am having a blast. I have another week and a half with her here and I am going to soak up every minute!! :)

Do you remember my Flamingo Trophy Art? No? Let me remind you. It’s the photo on the left. Guess what I came across at Anthro this week?
Yep. The Photo on the Right. I call it Dead Swan.

Now honestly, wouldn’t you rather have a sly silly flamingo on your wall?? Of course you would.
PS – this is a whole new line – there are three more of these in the series, all different birds. Guess what they retail at? $1500. Nope. I didn’t forget a decimal. Hello craziness.

Weird Searches!!
~ Someone landed here looking for an “excited flamingo“. Well – I’m not sure what excited flamingos look like but I can guarantee it’s more interesting than a dead swan.
~ We also had a search for “flamingo toes berlin“. Sad to say, I’ve never been to Berlin, so you won’t find me there. I have, however, been to the Blue Hole in New Mexico. Believe me, everything you’ve ever heard about it is true.
~ Last up, we had someone searching for “fun skin phone“. um. This is one of those cases when word order is important. Because a “fun phone skin” is a lot more . . . fun  . . . than a phone made out of skin.

That wraps us up!! I hope you have a fabulous weekend! :)
