Be Inspired Friday # 127 Creative Inspiration

Hi Everyone, there were so many great posts last week, you all are so talented, and I could feature so many more of your wonderful and inspiring posts. Loved all the Valentine ideas, hope you had a sweet one! Thanks so much for coming by each week to join in on the party. We're in for some wicked weather today, here in the Midwest. I know that so many of you have had more than your share of  "winter", but so far we had been spared. I'm going to post early in case we lose power. So, here are a few wonderful links from last week:


Amanda from One Girl in Pink created this
 lovely and feminine Trunk Transformation with ASCP.



Jeanette from Creating a Life shares a tutorial 
uh huh...I'm really ready for Spring!



always shares the great vignettes and spaces in her store.
She had me with these old watering cans...
 Yep, one of my weaknesses!



Melissa from DaisyMaeBelle
shared the inspiration behind this adorable fabric heart garland



Maryann from Interior Salvage recreated
a scrappy little bargain chair with a RH look.



And Kelly from Eclectically Vintage
shares her recipe and the "how-to" in making these 



Hope you'll join in today for the party with any inspiring post, vintage or new. 
Please have a link within your post to be featured.



And while you're out partying,
 please check out my other Friday Gal Pals.


See you when the storm is over...
xoxo,

    Thanks so much Linda for hosting another great one!
    Hope you're spared losing power, it's the worse thing in the winter to have that happen!
    It's pretty bad up here in Montreal this week too!
    Off to check the features I missed during the week

    You're bound for snow for sure! Stay warm and dry and I hope it helps with drought recovery, if anything at all. I kinda wish we were snow bound this morning...I looked out the window and we only have a few inches...so we'll be headin' to work soon. Just one week of February to go, almost there and then I'm springin' for tulips! Thanks for hosting this week, almost thought I was a goner again w/ my Blogger crisis (although, everything on Blogger is a crisis for me when things go wrong. I'm like a dinosaur).
