Talented Tuesday

Before getting too far ahead of myself, I would like to formally invite all of you to Birthday Week. Next week, I turn 32. In honor of that, the most dreaded of days, I have been in talks with 7 fellow bloggers who are each donating a prize.

For 7 days- Saturday the 24th through Friday the 30th, I will have a sponsored post each day about a different blog, each with a prize donated from that blog. Each contest is open to anyone who wants to enter, and believe me- there are some really cool prizes, from Jewelry, to Handbags, to Baby items.

I can't wait to show off these talented women! So, mark your calendars to come back to the blog starting Saturday, or follow the blog so you can see the daily updates!

Now, some features from last week's Talented Tuesday posts!

House of Hepworths took a plain Dawn Dishsoap bottle, and gave it a painted makeover. It turned out great, don't you think? 



At Second Street hosted this totally adorable Minnie Mouse birthday party. Seriously, it's just adorable!



A Vision to Remember makes these fantastic rag quilt car seat blankets. Whoever first came up with this idea is a genius, but here? She takes it to a really cute place with her rag work.


Makin' It Domestic turned a vinyl tablecloth into a useful diaper changing pad- which folds up to hold a diaper and slim pack of baby wipes. It's a great gift for any parent-to-be, or new parent!

Sawdust and Paperscraps took two empty walls, and made a fantastic framed photo collage wall. She used paint to make the frames match one another, and it makes a great statement on the walls, I think.

Sassy Style linked up this Framed Monogram, which she lined with a super cute green houndstooth fabric. Maybe I'm just partial to the H, but I love this!

With all the cool items that get linked up to the party each week, it's hard to pick just a few favorites, because I am always in awe of the creativity that flows in the blog world. Seriously- you guys rock! 

If I didn't feature your project, it isn't because I didn't like it- it's because I run out of room each week! ;)

Next week's Talented Tuesday Post is already being hosted, but if you are interested in sponsoring for a future Talented Tuesday post, please contact me!




The Rules
1) Post a blog about something you've made- a refurnish, recipes, a craft project, a sewing project, room decoration, anything you've done!

2) Add a link to your blog post- not to the blog itself, but to the individual posts! You can post more than one project, just add more links! The links should look something like:

http://theherberfamily.blogspot.com/2010/01/love-banner.html

and NOT like this:

http://theherberfamily.blogspot.com/

3) Add the code below to your blog, so that others can post their projects here as well! The list will accept new links through Thursday, so if you make something new, come back and post it!

Don't forget to look at the links on the list, and let people know where you found their post at!

This Link Party will remain open and accepting links through Thursday evening!!

Talented Tuesday Features

I slacked off yesterday. Big time. I slept a LOT during the day. Got several calls from the school about Middle Child, those are always fun. He has a fairly extreme case of ADHD, and yesterday? Well, yesterday was one of those bad, very bad, horrible, rotten days.

I wound up sleeping a lot, as I said. I digress.

I meant to feature some crafts from last week's Talented Tuesday, and never got around to doing it. Hence, the slacker part. So, here you are!

These are crafts from last week, NOT from yesterday's Talented Tuesday. Those will be featured next week. You know, if I'm not a slacker, that is.

If you've been featured here, grab the button, and BRAG!!



First up! A Wreath made from BATH POOFS! Yes, Bath Poofs! I totally love this idea, and want to try it myself for a Spring wreath (which my door needs, now that the Candy Cane heart is down).



 
Veronica over at A Very Country Christmas made this awesome Dollar Tree wreath for just $4 using a couple of bath poofs, some ribbon, roses, and a Dollar Tree wreath form! Isn't it just adorable?

Jess at Mad In Crafts made this fun Chinese Ribbon Stick for her son, also from Dollar Tree items. This is a fun toy, especially with the Olympics!



One Cheap B*tch over at... well, One Cheap B*itch made this totally great Chalk Board Table for her kids to play with. She found the table at a thrift store, painted the top, and Viola! A fun, and functional piece of play furniture!





Stephanie at Made By Stephanie made this fun Monogram Wall Hanging, along with another one as part of a housewarming gift. They are for the kids- isn't it fun?



Check out this fantastic room re-do by Missy over at The Little Green Bean. See that wall, that brick one? Yeah, totally hand painted. She used painters tape to tape of a grid, then went to town! The chair has been Mod Podged with maps. The whole room is just great!


Thank you for joining us with Talented Tuesday. I started Talented Tuesday just a month ago, and it's been a huge success. I really love seeing all the new projects you talented ladies (and gents!) have created each week!

Check back next Tuesday for new features. In the mean time, this week's Talented Tuesday post is open until 11pm, EST, on Wednesday. Feel free to keep adding in links!!
