Be Inspired #174

I felt totally out of the loop being away just one week! I missed seeing all your great ideas and decor from last week, and I'm in real need of some fresh inspiration! We're settling in to the lease house but have a long weekend of packing at the other house ahead of us. blah. But I DO need to find my Valentine goodies so I'll keep on a happy face. It's been so cold, all I want to do is stay home with a fuzzy blanket wrapped around me. OK, no whining...Here are some of the great links from the party two weeks ago.


Melissa from Shabby Love has a wonderful Home Tour, 
that you won't want to miss.





The Making of an Antique Cupboard
Angie from Knick of Time



Mary from Home is Where the Boat Is
shares her Potting Shed with a Bird Themed tablesetting.




gave us some care and handling tips for White Ironstone



gave us some wonderful farmhouse kitchen inspiration



Jennelise captured some lovely pink vintage items



and Mini Oven Puff Pancakes from Simply Suzanne at Home


thanks gals!!
