Pinterest Picks (New Title!)

So last week I talked about how I needed a better name for this feature because the Pinterest-and-number method was starting to sound like the Now CDs. Which are great CDs, I should mention, but the numbers just get weird after a while. (I feel the same way about The Babysitters Club, too. Something I also adored, but over 100 books in the "regular" series blew my mind, even as a kid.)

Anyway! Pinterest Picks. They're picks... from Pinterest. No need to complicate it, right? Let's see what the magical internet bulletin board lead me to this week.

First, a gal can never have too many scarves. I only have like, five, and none of them feature chevrons. Clearly, this needs to come home with me:


So many things about this kitchen are great. The schoolhouse lighting, the rustic island, the cool mint cabinets, the big window... I can't wait to get started with ours, but that's on deck for 2013.


Martha has some ideas for shiny holiday bracelets. I'm especially liking the links in the very middle:


Wide. Plank. Floors. (And look at the ceiling beams peeking out through the doorway. Drool.)


And finally, I don't want to beat a dead horse, but you can totally do it:


You can follow my Pinterest boards right here. Let me know if you do, I'll check you out. (And I'll go look at your boards. HEY-oh!)

What's the haps this weekend? I have my last outdoor show tomorrow and plan to spend Sunday watching football and working at the same time, which always turns into just watching football.

  7. Great saying, great kitchen, cool house, and of course you need another scarf! Lovely picks.

  8. good luck this weekend! I love the finds. you should try making yourself a chevron scarf.. perhaps a tutorial..hmmm. Anyway, are you a bears fan?? You can't rightfully live in IL and be a fan of a different team unless it's the cheeseheads and I'll only allow that if you live really close to the WI border. I'm not a huge football fan in general but I have to be a bears fan unless my family will disown me. I'm more of a basketball fan. My two fav teams are of course The Bulls and my UCONN huskies. My plans this weekend include sleep, homework, studying, work, and possibly a new movie. Have a great one!

  12. I love your "picks" from "Pinterest." Perhaps we can recreate some of those bracelets during our arts and crafts get together! We will make jewelry, then all go to RPM and stuff our faces in our matching bracelets! Bloggy friendship bracelets, of course.
