I have to say, I’m going to be a little sad tomorrow, now that the Olympics are over. Our family has totally gotten into the Olympic spirit this year and it’s been so fun! We have been watching the closing ceremonies tonight and I just had the pleasure of explaining to Hales that Victoria Beckham was Posh Spice long before Mr. Beckham ever came around, it was kind of funny.

Here are some fun things that caught my eye during this week’s Friday Flair…

mixed berry clafoutis /// nifty thrifty things

back to school fonts /// midwestern girl

nutella cupcakes /// bird on a cake

chevron longhorn /// raggedy cheek creations

outrageous chocolate cookies /// simply this & that

refinishing grandma’s dresser /// I should be mopping the floor

low country boil /// amelia bedelia

monster bibs /// stubbornly crafty

chocolate cake shake /// shugary sweets

tropical fruit pizza /// a pumpkin and a princess

folding chair makeover /// cupcakes and crinoline

rice krispie paint brush /// makoodle

frozen coconut limeade /// high heels and grills

s’more love in a jar /// a night owl

diy concentration memory game /// homemakin & decoratin

How fun are all of those? I can’t wait to see what this week will bring!!

Eeeeeek friends it’s {almost} FRIDAY… time for Friday Flair! This week has flown by. Is it just me or did someone press the fast forward button when summer started. Days are full of fun and craziness and it just seems to have been flying by. We had a fabulous time this last weekend with family and friends in town for Em’s baptism and the crepe cake turned out aaaaamazing! I posted about it yesterday, it was a Biscoff & Raspberry Crepe Cake… and it was delicious!

This weeks inspiration photo is one of those pictures that you either fall in love with or look at it and say… I don’t get it. I get it and I LOVE it. It comes from a restaurant in Detroit called Honor & Folly and I adore the black chalk painted walls, the soft pink mixer, the white tile and those lovely madeleine pans…

… You can just tell that is a happy and productive kitchen. I am dying to paint my walls like that in my next house. I’m still working on talking my sweetheart into it however. You all know what I’m talking about!

…for Emily’s baptism celebration lunch afterwards. Hopefully if it turns out I will share soon. With family in town, I’m going to unplug and enjoy my time with them and post the Friday Flair Features on Wednesday. I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend…

Well, happy Monday everyone!! This week is going to be crazy and it’s only Monday morning and my head is already spinning. We have family coming into town this week for Em’s baptism this weekend. I JUST found out that I get to join my sweet husband in Hawaii for nine days in a couple of weeks! The poor guy has to work over there for three weeks in August and eeeeek, I get to join him over there for a little bit. We’re starting to gear up for school and all that kind of fun stuff, and I have several projects I need to finish up before any of that happens…Wow, I think I need a nap now!

You guys have been hard at work as well, as always last weeks Friday Flair didn’t disappoint! Here are some of the fun posts that caught my eye last week…
