Dose of Delight | 1.29.2016

 This is always my favorite time of the week here on the blog because I can relax and share the works, thoughts, and projects of others. In other words, I can be lazy. That's what Fridays are for, right?!

So without further ado, here is this week's Dose of Delight; a round-up of favorite things from across the world wide web.

I'm not typically a huge fan of wallpaper, mostly because I don't think there's EVER been a person in this world who has had a positive thing to say about the removal process. I mean, really...have you ever met anyone who said they LOVED taking down wallpaper? If you have, I hope you referred them to seek out mental health services. But, but, but......I'm head over heels in LOVE with this wallpapered space from Shauna Johnson Designs. I mean isn't it a showstopper?!!




I've been on a purging rampage lately and really enjoyed reading this HUMONGOUS round-up of blogger's favorite organizational products! I think my favorite idea was to use an aluminium slide check rack to organize and display kid's art work. Ingenious, right?




Now these are healthy meals I can get on board for!




At the start of the new year, World Market release a lot of new products. 
I'm especially smitten with this aqua hair pin clock.




I keep forgetting Valentine's Day is right around the corner! I don't fuss much with decor for this holiday but am really digging this neutral approach to it from the Liz Marie blog.



Have a delightful weekend everyone!

Dose of Delight | 12.11.2015


How did we get to Friday already? Not that I'm complaining! This week's Dose of Delight is a perfect mix of a little of this and a little of that. So much inspiration around the www. this week. Enjoy and make sure to stop by next week for a mini holiday tour of our home (well, at least the 5% of it that's clean) and an easy tree "skirt" tutorial!




I always love a good card display! This one from Tatertots and Jello is so cute and creative.

I made these frosted sugar cookie bars last weekend for our family get together in Wisconsin and oh my, they are scrumptious! Seriously, the frosting is delicious....so delicious I wanted to roll around in it (now there's an image!)

For today only you can snatch a Heidi Swapp planner for 30% off (not sponsored, just love sharing a good deal when I see one!)



I can't get enough of these gorgeous DIY barn doors from Designing Vibes!

Someone referred me to these beautiful lace extenders last week and I seriously can't wait to order some! What a great way to add to those shirts that just seem to be getting shorter and shorter (or maybe I should just lay off the Christmas cookies???)

Have a delightful weekend!

Let's be Instragram friends, okay?

An "All Things Christmas" Dose of Delight | 12.04.2015


Happy Fri-YAY! The fact that we're thisclose to the weekend is the only thing that lit a fire under my toosh this morning to get out of bed. Well, that AND a needy two year old. Geesh, they should really learn how to feed and change themselves, don't you think? Speaking of diapers.....next week I've committed myself to begin our full time potty training adventures with Little B. I have no idea what the heck I'm doing or why I decided to do this among the holiday hustle and bustle. Perhaps, I'm legitimately crazy? None the less, wish me luck!


But enough about that, let's get to this week's Dose of Delight.
It's an "All Things Christmas" theme today. Enjoy!


All week I've been enjoying stalking the houses over on the Cherished Christmas Home Tours hosted by Cherished Bliss and Country Living. I know most of us wouldn't consider drooling all over ourselves attractive but I promise you want to check out Dandelion Patina's holiday home AND then go get yourself a towel.

Earlier this week I shared my love for beautifully wrapped gifts and today I want to continue that love fest by sharing this darling printable Christmas wrap from Thirty Handmade Days.

I want to sit around all day in yoga pants and do downward facing dogs. Haha! Who am I kidding I want to sit around all day in my yoga pants and drink hot cocoa out of these so-adorable-I-can't-take-it mugs.



Have you guys been following the #create4theholidays series over on Instagram that I'm co-hosting along with a handful of creative ladies? Remember every Tuesday we announce a new theme and if you'd like to share your projects for that week just make sure to follow the rules (listed on our Tuesday Instagram posts) and to tag it with #create4theholidays Even if you have nothing to share you can gather lots of ideas by checking out everyone else's submissions! This past week's theme was DIY gifts or gift wrapping and I just adore this holiday potpourri idea shared by my fellow co-hostess, Amy, of Tonality Designs.

Holy cheese spread! How delicious does this look?!

Halloween's Dose of Delight | 10.30.2015

Happy Halloween Eve! Let's be honest...how many of you need to make another candy run before tomorrow because SOMEONE already ate all the Snickers bars? I admit I've been that person in the past #dontjudge Well, I'm assuming most of you have a weekend full of holiday festivities so let's get to it; this week's Dose of Delight!


Here's a round-up of favorite projects, links, and reads from this week.
In the spirit of Halloween, I'm keeping with the theme all things spooktacular!
Enjoy!
53 Spooky and Creative Halloween Projects from Country Living
Doesn't this send chills down your spine?



I haven't seen many of these but I'm thinking maybe sometime this weekend  I need to pop some popcorn, turn off the lights, and throw one of these on!


I'm not sure if hanging a sign like this on your door is a guarantee for your house to be egged  or your pumpkins to be drop-kicked across the yard, BUT it's cute none the less!
You can download the free printable here.


Speaking of treats, aren't these darling?
I mean I don't usually say that about spiders but they're just as cute as a button!

This pinata is almost adorable to beat with a stick!

Dose of Delight | 10.2.2015


Let's give ourselves a round of applause, not only did we make it to a new month BUT we've made it to yet another Friday! Cue the confetti. We're hoping to hit the pumpkin patch with Little B this weekend and to
get our fill on pumpkin and apple cider donuts. 
Mmmmm.. I'm practically salivating just thinking about them. 

As always, with the change of the season, my mind is churning with all kinds of new Halloween and Fall project ideas. Hopefully, I can chuck out a few of those crafts this weekend too. I'm working on a really fun Halloween themed entryway. I can't wait to share it! I typically keep my Instagram account up to date so make sure to join me over there for sneak peeks.





Alright, enough with the babble. Let's get on with this week's favorite links!


How spooktastic is this wall art?

I know some of you are content with printing your pictures through places like Walmart and Cotsco and that's fine but there really is a quality difference between all print labs. About a year ago, I really started to appreciate some of the more professional online printing sources and thought this was a terrific post on the comparison between a lot of the pro labs!

Why Boys Needs to Play with Girl's Toys.


My favorite find this week was this grey plaid throw from Target. Earlier this week it was on sale online for $14.99. The price went back up but I see there is 10% off code available now. 
Seriously, it's so soft and comfy and makes me wish I was napping with it RIGHT. THIS. MINUTE.




Those of you who have been around for awhile are familiar with my love for the Blocks Paper Paint name blocks Darlene made me for B's nursery back in the day.
She just added a bunch of fun new Halloween themed items to the shop and I'm loving how festive they are.
Check them out here


Have a delightful weekend everyone!
