Thank You Thursday #2

It's another Thank You Thursday and I cannot wait to share my thank you notes today. If you are wondering what it's all about, you can read an explanation right HERE.I have very recently been so inspired by all of the lovely necklaces being made and shared throughout blogland. The only problem is, they look like you actually have to have some real special stuff to make them- stuff that I just don't have in me. The only necklaces I have ever made in my life are simple stringed beads and daisy chains. THANK YOU {Craftify It} for your Ric Rac Rosettes Necklace tutorial. Don't think I'm hatin' and saying you don't have special stuff- you have the special-est kind of stuff because you shared something just about anyone can make and have it turn out fab. I actually just bought some ric-rac three days ago for the sole purpose of making these cute little guys.
We all know we usually don't look our best when doing yard work- well, except for my neighbor when we lived in Springville, UT; I think she spent hours getting all snazzied up to look her best, bikiniest self when she did her gardening. But even when we're all hot, sweaty and dirty, don't we want to be surrounded by cute things- that's one of the main reasons I had kids! Anyway, I'd like to dig up a huge THANK YOU to 2 Little Hooligans for your Mod Podged Hoe Tutorial. You not only showed me how to make the mundane special, but also inspired us all to wanting to spruce up every tool in the shed! And why stop there? There's the indoor tools-with-handles as well! We could Mod-Podge the world (but that's another blog). Also, I love the design of your awesome blog- those owls are the cutest!
THANKS Alissa at 33 Shades of Green for sharing how to better organize our ribbon and paper tubes with your Wrapping Paper and Ribbon Wall Rack. It has always been a dream of mine to have a "wrapping station" after Martha Stewart said I needed one and this is such a cute and easy way to do just that. Now, I just need to convince my husband to build me a new room...
