The Saturday Six

 One.

I do love a fabulous black maxi dress. Unfortunately I do not own one right now, but one of these days I'll find the perfect one. Meanwhile, this post has some great ideas for ways to wear it differently - and there are also some other fun fashion tips in here. Shortening a necklace with a hair tie was my favorite! (Any of you have a favorite black maxi dress?)

Two.

Any of you like to hoard blank notebooks or journals? I try not to do this anymore, but I sure have been a culprit in the past! (Ryan's mom has dozens and dozens of them that we found when we helped Allen sort through her things!) Here are a BUNCH of ideas of ways to use empty notebooks if you need some inspiration for your collection! 

Three.

Did you plant a garden this year? Because of the craziness of our April and May, we did not get to plant ANY flowers or container gardens. Maybe next year! But this post shows food that is in season in June (and therefore likely very affordable to purchase). There are a few recipes on here that made me drool, too! (I am so ready for my first for-real strawberry shortcake of the season!)

Four.

Anyone else in love with labels like I am?? I adore them SO MUCH, and this blogger always makes the cutest ones. I appreciated her post on HOW she makes them all so cute!! Give me a label maker and get out of my way!!)

Five.

We don't have a backyard to makeover right now, but I sure love some of the simple and inexpensive freshening this blogger did! I love the two-tone look! 

Six.

Ryan and I have decided that whenever we buy a home again in the great future, something between 700-900 square feet would be plenty. I think THIS ONE is adorable. Ryan??
