Saturday Suggestions: Inspirations for Your Weekend

 


                Good morning! I am slowly crawling back into the land of the living. I did NOT see that flu bug coming. Ryan had a different strain of the flu last week, and after a full week had gone by, it did not even occur to me that my turn was still coming. That was one brutal 1 a.m. wakeup call and night to follow, let me tell you. I don’t know where it found me, but I would have been okay NOT being picked. 😊

                Sorry about yesterday’s lackluster post. I tried to squeak it out with one eye half open, while sprawled on the couch after not eating or drinking much all day. I’m pretty sure it showed. But I’m back and hopefully more put together today. Ready for some fun finds?

You know I love to thrift, and although I always have a running mental list of what I’d love to find, I ty to go in with a really open mind. You never know what you will (or won’t) encounter in the store! Andrea’s guide to thrifting is so helpful if you feel overwhelmed when you enter the thrift store! Not every trip will be a winner, but every now and then…wow! You’ll come home with some amazing finds.   

Can you handle one more Olympic story? If you didn’t see this tale of the ice rink cameraman, you should check it out! Impressive how he can skate backwards while holding a camera and not crash into the wall – or trip the skaters!

Brendt wrote this beautiful guide on a cozy home reset. This is always the time of year I start itching to reset everything in the house: clean out the heavy of winter and bring in the freshness of spring! If you’re in a bring-on-spring mode too, take a look at her suggestions! Cozy at home isn’t just for fall and winter!

Allison’s words in this piece point to the importance of journaling, and of course I support that, but what I hope you will see even more than that? He words about God’s sovereignty in hard places. If you are walking though a hard season of life right now and are trying to rewrite the script to be more pleasing…pay special attention to what she has to say. Beautifully articulated!

Who doesn’t love a good (or bad!) wedding dress!? This post features 100 wedding dresses from movies. Some movies are set long ago and others in present day, so the styles of dresses are quite varied. I certainly haven’t seen all the movies represented here, and I also don’t love all the dresses. But I did find it fascinating to scroll through, and there were some really pretty ones featured!

This idea won’t be on my list for this year, because, well, time, but I want to hang onto it for the future. A tutorial laid right out in full for the best mix of flowers to grow for an at-home cutting garden. I love (as you know) going to Steele Farms to cut flowers for fresh bouquets, and I don’t plan on stopping that adventure, but I do love the idea of having a mini version of their pretty offerings right here at home! I’ve never known what I should plant, but this tells me!
