Happy Weekend!  Here are my favorite links that made me take a longer look.

It’s the week for the one room challenge reveals!  Brittany Fleming’s room stopped me in my tracks.  Her before picture was beautiful and something I’d love in my house, but her after was so bright and cheerful it made me smile.  Her brave signature piece was a faux boxwood wall.  Imagine that?!  It’s easy to take down when she’s ready for something else.

The other room from this series that wowed me also sported some bright kelly green.  I think it’s the color that I’m really digging right now and I don’t have it anywhere in my house….hmmm.

Kristi’s from Making it in the Mountains classic green chalkboard wall and barn door with a wreath combination is lovely.  The green chalkboard paint is a nice variation from the usual black.  I liked her olive leave wreath enough to click through and buy one for my house, until I saw the $80 price tag.  If you’ve been reading here long, you know I searched the internet to look for alternatives.  Amazon has one JUST like it for about half price.  It was still too pricey for me, so I put a price drop alert on camelcamelcamel and hope it comes into my budget some time.

This daybed by Annie at Zevy Joy is gorgeous, right?  I got a bit excited when I discovered it’s just a queen mattress layered with bedding and for the back?  She got a $50 Ikea Ektorp sofa slip cover and Stuffed the back cushions with extra pillows.  I have most of this stuff lying around the house and it will be happening in my office soon.
