Heya and happy weekend!

First, welcome to all my new friends!  I'm getting SO close to 200 GFC and Linky friends!  For someone who does this as a hobby, that thrills me beyond belief!  It truly humbles me that you guys keep coming back and seem to enjoy my craziness!  I {heart} you guys! 

This week, I started co-hosting the All Star Block Party blog hop, and it's been a HUGE success!  My co-hosts and I are so thrilled!  But, hosting 2 linky parties is a little too much for me right now.  Since the block party has been so successful {which really makes more sense to me!} I'm going to cease hosting SOS.  I hope you will all come link up to the block party, cause it's awesome! 

So, this being the last SOS feature post, I want to at least feature my favorites and let you know how much I LOVE all of you that always come back and link up.  My blog isn't the biggest and I really don't know how much exposure you got, but it didn't matter.  You came, you linked... and I'm honored. 


Fiona at Just Paint it White made these darling bags that hold twine.  SO clever and SO cute! 


Karen at Somewhat Quirky updated these wicker rocking chairs in this awesome shade of green.  You need to go see how they looked before!


Debi from Adorned from Above shared this recipe for Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cake.  One of my favorite things in the world is chocolate cake.  The good kind that doesn't even need frosting.  Just hand me a fork and a tall glass of milk!


Still haven't made a cent with this little blog, and I doubt I ever will... but all of YOU are priceless to me!  The bonds I've created with you have gotten me through some really rough days.  One of the best decisions I ever made was to start this blog, even if nobody besides my family ever read it.  But look, look how many amazing friends have entered my life! 

So, please be sure to come back every Wednesday and link up with the block party, Mkay?? 

And remember, you rock my little world. 

XOXO

Howdy my favorite people!

Whew, I love short work weeks, don't you?? 

Hope you have some great plans for this weekend!

We are closely watching a fast moving wild fire on the other side of our mountain.  We are packed and ready to run if we need to!  The kennels are ready and all lined up.

So, while we watch and wait... let's look at this weeks features!  You guys really knock my socks off!


Deanna at It's Just Me made this amazing rustic chalkboard.  I love anything chalkboard and rustic.  This is the best of both!  Nice Deanna!



Julie at Sew Passionate shared an amazing how-to make this darling fringed bolster pillow.  I SO wish I had a sewing machine!  Her tutorials are fab!  Love this Julie!



Julie at White Lights on Wednesday shared this recipe for French Onion dip.   I'm SERIOUSLY drooling here!  I don't like onions, but I love French onion dip and this one looks SO good!  Thanks Julie!!

Hey and happy Memorial Day weekend friends!!

Lots of small projects planned here.  Hope you all have some fun plans!

I'm so excited because I finally got a compressor and finish nailer!!  I've been having lots of fun already and planning on some projects I've always wanted to learn.  I can't wait to show you what I've been up to the past couple days!!  I will show you soon!

On to this weeks party.

Such awesome stuff:

Happy weekend babies!

It's SOS {lucky} #13!!  Woo hoo!!

I've been keeping busy lately, can't wait to see what you've all been busy with this week!

Quickly, wanted to show you Kita's peonies that I cut last night:

Howdy friends!

From the comments I received when I asked how you felt about Show Off Saturday, I have to agree with you all.  The reason I should continue SOS is because we all love getting together.  I tend to forget that not all of you reading are bloggers.  Very, very good point!  So, on that note... SOS will continue!

I'm a little behind, I apologize!

The features from the previous SOS are:


I die.  I love this cup cozy more than I can tell you.  When Heather at Setting for Four starts selling these, I am the first in line!!


Another one I'm dying over.  This reminds me of the Restoration Hardware deconstructed stuff.  Karen at Somewhat Quirky did this one and it's just amazing. 






My buddy mcvick at Center of Attention Deficit Disorder made this adorable planter.  When I asked her how she got it to stack straight, she told me she spoke very sternly to it.  LOL!!  She's clever AND hysterical! 

So now, onto this weeks fun!  Remember - NO RULES!

Wow, what a crazy week huh?

So busy with the day job I havent seen you in a whole week!  I'm going through withdrawl. 

So sad.

Off to the vet again this weekend.  *stressful* After that, I hope to spend some time stalking your blogs.  What you guys doin?  Anything fun or exciting??

Here's some awesome stuff you all shared last week:


Look at these darling envelopes that Priscilla AKA Thrifty Crafty Girl made.  You guys are killing me with the amazing stuff you're making with your Silhouette and sewing machines.  I'm dying.



My girl Anne at Design Dreams By Anne has seriously mad painting skills.  Check out her coffee table paint job.  It's so gorgeous.  And her kitty Eloise is pretty stinkin cute, too.


My new-ish friend Jen at Four Marrs and One Venus turned these chairs into an amazing bench.  I die.  I love it so much.  How great would that look in my remodeled pantry??  *hint hint*

So, onto this weeks party.

No rules, just fun, fun, FUN!!


She looks like she's having fun.

I love you more than my luggage. 

Oh yay!  It's the weekend!  HAPPY DAY!!

Been a busy week here.  I've been a little overwhelmed at the thought of taking care of the yard this summer.  So, we hired a young boy in the neighborhood who is saving for Scout Camp to mow and care for the yard for us. What a relief.  It's a win-win!

Aaaaaaanyway... on to the super duper features!


Heidi at Loe La Loep made this adorable planter from old fence posts.  She is really making some darling outdoor decor.  I wish {see above} that I had a green thumb and loved the outdoors.



Tanya at Take Six shared this adorable children's Easter table.  So bright and Springy.  I love the forsythia in the little galoshes.  SO cute!



Bonnie at Revolutionaries made these super darling Easter eggs from embroidery hoops!  So easy and just darling!  

I want to take a minute to thank all of you for taking the time to link up to this little party.  I have vowed to not stalk anyone to join, and you all continue to amaze and inspire me!  I love, love, LOVE you!

On to this weeks party.  Lets see what cool stuff you've been up to!

• No rules, just fun!

Hey, hey, hay!

What a week, huh?

We've got stomach flu going through our house.

We are dealing with sick kitties, again.  Mira may need to be nebulized.  Hoping that's easier than it sounds.  Kita is crappy.  Dont know if its chemo, cancer or a virus.  Joy.   No stress, right??

Super glad it's the weekend.  And Easter weekend at that!  Hope you and your families enjoy it!

I'm really loving this weeks link ups.  You guys are amazingly talented and creative.

Features this week are:


Anne at Design Dreams by Anne made over this Ikea buffet.  It was lovely to begin with, but now it's gorgeous!!



Karen at Somewhat Quirky made this stunning subway art.  I love everything about it.  Especially the quote.


mcvick at Center of Attention Deficit Disorder made these lemon kiss, no-bake cheesecake bites.  I. Freakin'. Die.  I need one, right now.  *slurp*


Hope you all have a great weekend!  I'm guest posting over at Hating Martha on Monday... be sure to come visit!!

Happy weekend babies!

I'm exhausted!  The day job has been beyond busy this week.  Hope your week has been good!

This weeks features are:



Carrie at Comfortably Carried Away made this darling Bee dresser.  You have to go and see the top!  I love it so much!


Look at this gorgeous buffet 'sprainted' by Suzan at Simply Vintageous painted with ASCP. I'm so jealous, it's just lovely.



mcvick at center of attention deficit disorder upcycled a hideous tray into this masterpiece, then, she gave to a friend as a pressie.  I want friends like her!  The more I get to know her, the more I'me sure we are sisters from another mother.

So, you know the rules, right?

• Not necessary to follow Nutmeg Place, but I will only feature those who do. 
• Please visit the other blogs and leave them nice words. 
• Have fun!! 

And just for giggles:

I can't wait to see what you guys have been working on this week! 

Hey there all my amazing and wonderful friends!

I hope your week has been a good one!  I've been busy working on some really fun Spring projects.  The weather has been really, really lovely.  Makes it very hard to be stuck inside!  But, just in time for the weekend... snow.  There aught to be a law.  {sigh}

You will see my projects very soon.  One of them I've been working on with one of my favorite bloggers... it has been SO fun!  I can't wait to show you this weekend!

Here are my favorites from last weeks party:

Alisha at Snug as a Bug Baby and her husband made this Pottery Barn knock off bed.   Which, I'm really quite jealous over.  I've wanted this bed for a loooooong time!  GREAT job you two!




Jutta at Organized Living Solutions made these spoons from shells and driftwood.  I cannot even tell you how much I {BIG FAT LOVE} these!  OH EM GEE.



Anne at White Lace Cottage did this sweet table in ASCP.  I love the distressing on this one.  Just lovely!

You all never cease to amaze me with your creativity.

P.S.  If you are interested in having me guest post or blog swap, or if you are interested in guest posting on Nutmeg Place please contact me at .

Hey there, hi there, ho there!  The weekend is FINALLY here!!

We are supposed to have gorgeous weather and I'm SO looking forward to it.

I'm hoping to have my chest of {epic} drawers done and ready for a post in the next day or two.  What are you all up to??

Thanks so much for all the sweet well wishes for our 2 sickie babies.  They are both doing better.  This winter has been hard on asthma sufferers and chemo always seems to knock little Kita on her kiester. She will be much better in a week or so.

Anyway... moving onto this weeks features:
