Well, hello! It’s Friday and I am doing the happy dance over here. After being away last weekend, it will be so nice to spend time with family and chill for a couple of days. Speaking of chilling, have you seen the patio reveals that some awesome bloggers have been posting about? Home Depot sponsored a challenge, and boy did the bloggers rise to the challenge. Wanted to share one of them with you today as well as a couple of other great posts I came across this week. Enjoy! 
{Hi Sugarplum | Patio Reveal} Cassie, from Hi Sugarplum, blew me away with her colorful patio reveal for the Home Depot challenge. The patio is packed with fun and simple DIY ideas. Makes we want to unleash some color on our patio. Wheels are turning!!! 
{The Chronicles of Home |DIY Table Reveal} I am very much convinced that Jennifer from The Chronicles of Home can do EVERYTHING. She made this table. Yup. It’s amazing. In fact, I am wishing I could place an order. In my opinion, among opening a restaurant {this girl can cook}, this Blogger should open a furniture store as well. 
{6th Street Design School | Tips learned from SNAP} Kirsten is one of my favorite bloggers. I had the pleasure of hanging with her at Alt. She recently attended SNAP and shared so many great tips. I love that bloggers are so up for sharing their tips and tricks. I promise you’ll definitely benefit from her great post on what she picked up from the conference. ……………………. Happy Friday, my friends! My seven year old has a party here tomorrow so we are in full decorating and planning mode! we are keeping it simple, but having a blast with it in the process. Sneak peek of the party favors from instagram.

I love that table!!! My father in-law is a carpenter in Portugal and he makes the most gorgeous furniture. We live in Scotland though. Boo. I so want him to come for a working visit and just make me all the things I want. The issue is making sure he has all the right tools here. But, what a legacy to leave some beautiful furniture.
I need the tips from SNAP. I'm headed there now!
Love the colors on the first one
And the mix of patterns on that one is amazing.
Cassie's patio totally blew me away as well. I just want to hang out there. Forever.

You sweet, sweet girl! Thanks for the super kind words, I am so flattered. I have, at various time in my life, dreamed of opening up both a cafe and a furniture store. Maybe I should come up with some kind of furniture/cafe hybrid… Come have a tasty bite and buy the bench you're sitting on! Hope you enjoy the birthday celebration weekend with your sweet girl 🙂 xo
Sweet thing!!! Thanks for the shout-out…my patio and Riley's closet totally match! #greatminds
Happy party weekend, and love to my fave SoCal 7-yr-old!!!
Love the porch, the table and the sweet party favors. Have a wonderful celebration!
Jennifer's table is AMAZING! Heading over there now! Hope the party is amazing!!!
