Friday Finds

Hurray! It's time for Friday Finds!

I found so much fantastic inspiration out there this week, and I feel like I didn't even scratch the surface. It seems like everyone is getting really busy with summer gearing up, but there's still plenty of great sharing going on. Lucky for us! 

This week I have some indoor and outdoor eye candy, a few craft projects, and some yummy recipes, so let's get started!


Cottage in the Oaks
 I can't think of a better place to spend the summer than on this sweet front porch. Visit Daune at Cottage in the Oaks to see all the cute details. 


Jennifer Rizzo
 Kristen from Ella Claire shared a really great tutorial for her garden sign at Jennifer Rizzo's blog this week. 
 

The Pin Junkie
 The Pin Junkie made these simple garden markers that will last. Super easy! 


Hickory Trail
 At Hickory Trail Angela showed us her summer hutch. I love her lemonade sign!


Junk Chic Cottage
 Kris at Junk Chic Cottage updated her amazing kitchen. It's a must see!


DIY Showoff
 Roeschel's family room at DIY Showoff is eclectic perfection. Head on over and tour the rest of her summer house.


Sanna and Sania
Sania and Susanna of Sanna and Sania photographed this darling Stockholm Bombay home. 


Aiken House & Gardens
 This cozy little nest is in Carolyn's summer boathouse at Aiken House and Gardens. I would like a summer boathouse, too, please.


The Happy Housie
 At The Happy Housie Krista made these bright summery envelope pillow covers. I wish I could mix and match patterns with such panache!

Polka Dot Closet
 Carol shows us how to alter pretty vintage doilies at The Polka Dot Closet


Whipperberry
 Jenn from My Fabuless Life recovered these fun party chairs with polka dot burlap. Check out her tutorial at Whipperberry this week.


Cutie Pie Cottage
 These cute rag balls were made by Holly at Cutie Pie Cottage.
 

Eat Drink Chic
 Download Amy's free fun ice cream printables at Eat Drink Chic.


The Best Blog Recipes
 Shauna shared a recipe for Barbecue Chopped Chicken Salad over at The Best Blog Recipes.


Add a Pinch
 At Add a Pinch Robyn gives us the recipe for Comeback Sauce, a Southern classic. This yankee has never heard of Comeback Sauce before, but I'll definitely be trying it!


A Pretty Life in the Suburbs
 Joanna at A Pretty Life in the Suburbs made thse pretty Coconut Cream Tarts. They're almost too pretty to eat!

But I'm sure I could eat at least two. Have you ever noticed I always end my Friday Finds with a great recipe? And it always makes me want to head to the kitchen for a snack!


Thanks for joining me for Friday Finds this week. I hope something special has caught your fancy today. 

Have a wonderful weekend and a 

HAPPY FRIDAY!

  9. Oh how fun to be featured here! Thank you!
    I had seen large rag balls before but they were
    always covered in rustic or muddy looking colors
    so I decided to make tiny ones with cute, cottage fabrics!
    I string them up into garlands along with buttons and they are so cute!
    I'm off to visit some of your other featured bloggers!
