Necktie Necklace

Running With Glitter has this great how-to up for turning and old, ugly tie into something spectacular and unexpected - a statement necklace!   I'd never think to wear a tie in quite this way, but I think it would look great with a plain white t-shirt and slacks or jeans.  Feeling inspired to go rummage through my husband's tie collection...

Bunny Wheels

A young boy named Liam designed this A.T.B. (all terrain bunny) vehicle for a rabbit he rescued that had lame legs.  The cart was designed specifically to improve the little bunny's mobility and lo and behold, it works!  As a lover of all animals, I'm inspired by Liam's kindness and ingenuity.  What a great kid.

You can watch Liam's bunny in action here.

Mother's Day Ring Cupcakes

Cupcakes Take The Cake has this cute idea for making Mother's Day extra special this year.  Instead of celebrating the day with cake, cookies, chocolates or any other standard kind of sweet treat, why not make these cupcake rings instead?  They're fashionable and they look oh so yummy!

Marvelous, darling!

This Baby Loves Bubbles

Trying to motivate this morning and having difficulties.  There are way too many cool things out there on the interwebs today.  I'm having a hard time pulling myself away!  Take this video for example.  I could watch this dog eat bubbles and listen to this kid laugh for days.  She has the most contagious laugh I've ever heard coming from a toddler.

Happy Monday!

Monday Morning Fun

Visual News has this cute idea for turning an ordinary wall and electrical outlet into something playful and unique.   It's charming, but I don't think I'd put it anywhere within reach of children - that's asking for trouble!  I can imagine drawing a smaller version of this somewhere in my house though, just for the fun of it.  The garage, maybe?

It's a "snoutlet."  Ha. Get it? 

Earth Day!

Happy Earth Day to all my tree-huggin', dirt-lovin' friends out there!  Hope you enjoy this fun, gut-busting Earth Day post by Pheonix New Times Blog. 

Cups Around The Clock

Vintage Revivals has this tutorial for making your very own teacup clock and it's adorable!  I've always been drawn to teacups, particularly the flowery, gold-rimmed, ornate sets.  They remind me so much of my grandmother.  *Happy thoughts*  :)

I love that this tutorial uses more modern sets as well.  What a fun way to spruce up a dining area!
