Pinterest Picks

Happy Friday! Not only is it the start of the weekend, but today I get to meet my bloggy bud Ayla in real life! We're meeting at Millennium Park for an afternoon of walking around the Loop. Hopefully the weather cooperates--there's a thunderstorm icon being a party pooper on my phone--but it will be a fun time either way. So exciting!

Before I go, let's take a look at this week's Pinterest picks.

You know I love a good IKEA hack. This one involves a $30 side table, some spray paint, and marble contact paper. Pretty clever!

This is some beautiful lace. The folds of fabric on the skirt are interesting, too, and totally elevate the whole dress. Without them, I think this might've been kind of ho-hum:

I still haven't set up any kind of storage for my personal jewelry. It's all in the jewelry box on my dresser, but I'm falling into the trap of wearing the same handful of things over and over again because I don't feel like digging for something else. Having the pieces displayed, maybe like this, will make it easier to see everything:

Hubsey and I have the same phone and I can't tell you how many times we've accidentally taken the other person's charger and wandered away with it. This week's Duh Moment is to put washi tape on one of them. Seriously, I'm smacking myself on the forehead.

Gorgeous workspace. Let's count the pretty things in here: the gray shelving, the planked ceiling, the silver desk lamps, the industrial chairs...

What fun things to did you find on the web this week? This wasn't on Pinterest but I came upon a description of every meal Almanzo Wilder eats in Farmer Boy, which was delightful. And that lead me to this picture. You might not want to look at it with a mouth full of coffee or you'll spray.

Any big weekend plans? We're going to another birthday party tomorrow, followed by our anniversary dinner at a French restaurant (yay!). Sunday will probably be a catch-up day, and I need to work ahead on some posts so I don't go totally MIA while we're out of town. Whew! I'll be back on Monday for the blogger taco party. Be sure you join us to see all of the tasty goodness!
