Be Inspired #125 Winter Lovelies

Welcome to the new and improved

Be Inspired Friday
so glad you're here!

Today I'm sharing a double feature, sort of like the old movie venues...two for the price of one! Susan linked up two wonderful posts, and I just had to share them both! She has such a beautiful blog, you'll be all swoony for her lovely pastels...

I can't tell you how much I needed to see this little

 tip on how to make a ruffle "old school" from

Katie at Let's Add Sprinkles

If you've been asleep for the last week or so you might have missed

this Wonderful Valentine Mantel from Christina from
Remodelando la Casa

I adore the little vintage train cases and suitcases,
so I love the

Faux Chalkboard Cases
from Betsy at My Salvaged Treasures

Beautiful creations with a message,
are what you'll always find here and her Etsy Shop.
Take a peek at this wonderful
Valentine's Day Canvas and Mantel

And Cathy from My 1929 Charmer created some adorable
Valentine decor with her fabric hoop rounds.

Today's Be Inspired Sponsor is

French Bleu Vintage

Where you'll find treasures for your home and soul.
Thanks Dee, for all the wonderful vintage goods!

I want to take this opportunity to invite you all over 

on Monday morning to come visit 

The Marketplace

If you have an Etsy Shop or Online Boutique, please come link up your items for a browser's paradise. The link stays open all week, so there's lots of time to come shop and/or to add new listings, and you don't have to have a blog to link up. There are always great items, vintage and new, handcrafted, and created by some of your favorite blogging friends. Hope you'll come by and join in on the shopping fun.

 Time to link up all your inspiring posts, new or vintage.

Be Inspired is now open to all inspiring posts, not just vintage.

Please have a link within your post to be feature.
