Be Inspired Showcase

I always love going through all your links from Be Inspired Friday. We've had so many wonderful posts on Spring and Easter. Here are few, that were also top visited links from last week.

Mary from Home is Where the Boat Is has had changes in her Spring weather, like so many of us have had. In her post, "Hopping Up and Down the Bunny Trail" she shares her Spring and Easter decor in the Potting Shed.



OK, I want one of these stamped spoons!




Jennifer's Daughter's Wedding
 from Town and Country Living is such a beautiful event.
Here are mom and daughter. They could be sisters!







found a great new way to use beadboard wallpaper.
What a neat idea, on the Fridge!!


and Denise on a Whim gave us One Shutter Two Ways
Love this great turquoise for Spring!




See you tomorrow morning for Be Inspired!


Gotta question for you...
anyone else out there having issues with your "comment email"?
I'm having multiple emails show up of the same comments.
And it's making me a little crazy...
just wondering.

Oh, and Be Inspired will go live a little early tomorrow,
so just a little heads up!

Hi Everyone,
Hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend.
Have you finished off all the chocolate bunnies?

and then stick around to do some shopping!

Here are a few great links from last week:

And today Michele from Glass Bead Treasures has the Spotlight.
 Here are a few items from her great Etsy Shop.
 These just reminded me of Spring!









I can just see a bride carrying this beautiful
Voguemont Beaded Purse


Thanks so much Michele!


This linky is for items that are FOR SALE only. Please link up to three of your items, (with a direct link if possible).

Everybody's mad...

at me!


I knew this day would have to come.
But they weren't happy.
Lot's of griping and pouting.

Yes, the bird feeder on the deck had to go back to the tree,
so I could be ready to put out the hummingbird feeder.

These little guys kept me hopping last year until late October.
I didn't get a feeder up until probably July, but then they mobbed me.

They come back to the feeder they summer at, and I want to be ready,
'cause I'm hoping to see a little of this...

This afternoon was glorious!
Sunny and warm and fabulous...


So I took a little time to straighten up the deck.
(OK, I cleaned it, it was a mess)



and potted the daffodils and tulips that had been on the sunporch.
Yes, the ones that now have bite marks and chunks out of them.

wonder who...?


Just in case you missed the post with all the nasty grunge
that critter feeding can cause.


Earlier in February and March...




just downright gross...
but the kitties and I loved watching them.





So now things are looking more like Spring...
and a little tidier.


Still too early to bring out the geraniums that I winter,
but soon.




I have so much outdoor clean-up, but that will wait.
Today I did something I thoroughly enjoyed...

joining in with these parties this week:

Met Monday at Between Naps on the Porch
Tweak it Tuesday at Cozy Little House
The Scoop at Cedar Hill Ranch
A Stroll Thru Life
