Paint Stick Flag


Happy Memorial Day!!!!


What do you think that flag is made of? Try... paint sticks! Paint a few paint sticks and glue a star on and you have an adorable flag for the patriotic holidays! This great idea was created by Dreaming In Color.

Summer Survival Guide (Painted Rock Garden)



Positively Splendid has hosted a month of Summer Survival ideas where other blogger contribute. Some truly great ideas and inspiration are all in one post today since it is the last day! I love recaps of great series.




Head over to Positively Splendid to check out ideas that will enhance your summer.



One of the ideas I will definitely be doing this summer with my kids is making a painted rock garden contributed by Living With Punks! My kids will eat this idea up. I'm not so sure the rocks will look as cute as these, but they will be colorful!



Wall Painted Headboards

Are you wanting a specific headboard, but either can't find it or can't afford it? Not a problem. Just paint it on the wall. It's an inexpensive solution that can be changed with a coat of paint when you want something else. This beautiful painted on headboard is from The 2 Seasons.


Party Highlights!




Here are some unique and interesting ideas from the Whatever Goes Wednesday Party today!


Turn roman shades into a very interesting looking vase! The texture and lines of it are beautiful. Learn how at Bon Temps Beignet.


This gardening idea from The Dragon's Fairytail is an awesome one! She planted lettuce in a rain gutter. I think this would work for herbs too! It is even attached to her house so it looks like a flower planter. So cool!

I wish there was a lot of driftwood nearby me because I would make a driftwood planter! Learn how to make this at Craftberry Bush!

How cute are these decorative spools made from branches? Totally cute! See these at Homework: Be Inspired.

This idea for sidewalk paint is going in my summer "TO DO" file box! My kids will love this stuff and paint the whole sidewalk! Thanks Stampin' and Craftin'.


If you are LDS, you know the scripture mastery verses. Scripture Mastery are very important verses to which Christians should have quick reference. Download the stickers for each set of scripture (Old Testament, New Testament, BOM and D&C) at Ten Cow Chick!



I love chairs that have been turned into planters - like this at Taking Time To Smell The Flowers. So pretty (and that red just "pops.")



See more links from the Whatever Goes Wednesday party.

Vintage Suitcase Table

I'm loving what Shabby, Chic and Charming did with a vintage suitcase. She used it as a table top after she painted it a pretty white. What a charming little sidetable! I love the vintage phone on top too!


Faux Tiered Ceiling

This idea from Kammy's Korner about making your flat ceiling looked tiered is AWESOME!!!! What a great visual effect it adds to a room. All she used was some chair rail and paint. Inexpensive and fabulous!!!


Happy Home Wall Saying

This happy home wall saying from Creative Carmella is beautiful! I love where and how she hung it in her home! She also shows how she made it.






Check out City Deals in your area today. You can take off an additional 20% off anything (of the already LOW prices) when you enter SUNNY20.

Painted Carriage Garage Doors!

Forever Decorating wanted the look of carriage garage doors without paying the BIG bucks. (Have checked out the price of those fancy doors? Yikes.) SO she painted her garage doors! How genius is that? VERY!!!!! I can't tell that those doors are not the real thing!





Popsicle Stick Bracelets AND Ukrainian Eggs

I had no idea you could ever make a popsicle bend into a bracelet shape without breaking it, but YOU CAN! Check out how Suzy's Artsy Craftsy Sitcom made popsicle sticks into adorable bracelets. This would be fun for a tween or teen birthday party or just for fun!



While you are visiting Suzy's Artsy Craftsy Sitcom, you should see how to create these detailed Ukrainian eggs. Suzy walks you through it step-by-step. It is amazing! I can't believe how she is able to create such a beautiful piece of art on an egg. If you don't want to make one, you can always buy one from her etsy shop. They are very reasonable considering the time involved to make them.




Get a Ukrainian Egg for yourself or someone else at Suzy's Gifts.

Boy's Tool Name Sign

How fun is this sign made out of tools to spell a boy's name? It's connected to a yardstick! My son would think this is the BOMB!!! You can read more about this at TaiDye Original.

Paint Chip Purses

I think the purses made out of paint chips are simply adorable! They would be cute out of scrapbook paper or cardstock too! Infarrantly Creative has a little video showing how to make these!

Baby Glam Rockin' His/Her Shirts

I'm thoroughly loving these Baby Glam Rockin' t-shirts at My Own Road! This diva necklace shirt is made with some dabs of paint!
.
And you can't forget a rockstar tie shirt for the little guy. This is the best kind of tie because your son can't pull it off!

Some Party Highlights!

.
As usual, there are so many great ideas linked up to today's party! Here are a few of interest to me!!!
These vases at Nifty Thrifty Things used to be clear glass! They are so much more beautiful painted - from the inside out! Check out paint glass from the inside.



Painting chevron stripes is quickly becoming the rage. See how Bon Temps Beignet painted some chevron stripes!!!


Check out how EmmylouBeeDo turned a white onesie into this darling lovable St. Patty's shirt! This would work well for t-shirts too! I love the heart on the clover! Cute touch! You can print out the clover from this site.



I'm totally smitten with this bed made out of two matching vintage doors. One for the headboard and one for the footboard. See the pictures at Junk Restore.

Fun Party Ideas!

.
There are so many cool ideas at today's party! Wow! Here's just a few!
,
How darling is that flower on that onesie made by Liberty Originals? Much too darling! I could see it on a shirt, a headband, a bag or shoes! Love it.

This has to be the cutest coat closet I have ever seen! So bright, so cheery, so organized for such a small space! I NEED one of these! See it at Away We Go.

This turtle taggie is a must for my baby boy when he gets here!!!! So awesome! Found it at Show, Tell, Share.

This is one of those funky ideas to remember for a rainy day! Make paper cups into faux flowers with Blissful Meandering. My kids would love this idea!

A Perfect Cars Boy's Room! (From today's Party)

What a cool lamp for a boy's room!!! The lampshade is made to look like a road with cars on it! Super creative!!! See how it was made at Bliss Bloom Blog.

If I had a car lamp, I would also want a car wall for my son's bedroom. The extra radical thing about this car wall is it is magnetic. The cars can move around the room! What a heavenly room for a little guy! See the whole room at Cutesy Crafts!!!

Both of these awesome projects were linked up to today's Whatever Goes Wednesday. See more links!!!

Fun Links!

How do you like some of the fun ideas I found at the party today?
This mustache sipper is an awesome idea for a party or just a silly family dinner! My kids would freak out with excitement if I did this! See it at It's Toile Good!

Painting some trees on a wall can make a huge difference! Don't you love this wall at Girl In Air. This is going to be an awesome bedroom makeover when it is all finished!

Make conversation hearts into rings with While He Was Napping. What a great short-term jewelry accessory!

The thing I love about this shirt is that it is interchangeable. Make It Do or Do Without sewed on snaps so she can take off the holiday message and interchange it for a new holiday! Brilliant!!!

Paint That Paneling!!!

I have a few friends that still have dark brown paneling in their house! I am going to show them how beautiful that paneling can be when it is...PAINTED! Increasingly Domestic turned their dark cave into a warm, happy room when they painted their paneling.

Stenciled Ceiling

I remember when stencils like apples and sunflowers were "in." Then stencils died out. Well, there are definitely some beautiful stencils out there that are definitely back "in." And I love what Not JUST A Housewife did with a stencil. She stenciled her bedroom ceiling. Oh WOW!!! That looks stunning!
