161th Inspire Me Tue. & Frenchy/Farmhouse Giveaway

Welcome to the 161th Inspire Me Tuesday, I am thrilled you are here, and I can't wait to show off some of the wonderful links from last week.  Plus I have the most wonderful Frenchy/Farmhouse giveaway ever.


Kathleen @ Decor Amore:  shared a post with some of her favorite vignettes.  This rooster picture totally has me drooling all over the place.


The Painted Apron designed this really fun table with her collection of "Snooty Waiters".  I just love it.


I love everything about this creative hutch that Shabby Love put together, and her butter pats, graters, scales and breadboards are all so beautifully displayed.


I love the rustic with the elegant and The Fancy Shack finally fulfilled a dream when she found this wonderful barn door.  You need to see the entire room. Fabulous.


Marvin's Daughter made some gorgeous pillow slipcovers in a variety of fabrics to add color and texture to her room, plus she shared a fabulous tutorial.  She is also a new blogger, so go by and say welcome.

This pie looks too good to eat.  Don't you love the way Happier Than A Pig In Mud cut out all the strawberry and flower shapes for the crust.  Fabulous.


Need some party favors for graduations.  Cluttered Cardboard has the greatest solution.  Little candy graduation hats.  (Plus she is a really newby blogger, so go by and give her some blogland love and say hello.)


Have you ever seen anything so stunning.  Art For Your Walls made over this wonderful chest with a silver leaf finish.  She gives a fabulous tutorial, plus she is a brand new blogger too.  By all means go see how she did it and say hello.

Ok, now for the good part, the Frenchy/Farmhouse Giveaway.  Barb from The Every Day Home has the most amazing online store - - Farmhouse Decor - - and she is offering one of my followers this unique and fabulous Cast Iron Stand Twine and Scissors holder.

Love, love, love this piece. Can't you just see this in a neat vignette on the kitchen counter, and you know how we all love to add twine around our books, candles and just about everything.   To win just go to my previous post here and follow the simple rules to enter. Easy.

Now let's get the party started with what you guys have to share for this week.

    It's so nice for me to finally have time to visit blog parties like this. I have gotten some of my favorite ideas from hopping from link to link.

    Your features are wonderful. How did I miss that pie at Happier than a pig in mud?" I generally stalk that blog.
