Hiya friends! Announcing a small scheduling switcheroo – this summer I’m committed to spending the weekend (mostly) offline so I’m moving ‘Best of the Blogosphere’ to every other Friday, rotating it with ‘Weekend Reading’ on opposite weeks, leaving you with a roundup of inspiration on Fridays. Enjoy these amazing spaces and projects in the continuing series highlighting the best we spy in DIY and design!
Matthew Mead worked his magic on a sweet girl’s room, take the full bedroom tour on his blog.
A beautiful guest room is upgraded with modern touches at Life on Virginia Street.
Colorful and fun, take a tour around this modern nursery designed by Jessica at Oh I Design for a client, complete with geometric accent wall and orbit chandelier.
Don’t miss baby Sullivan’s nursery over at Jessica Sloane, finished in soothing neutrals.
Thrifty Decor Chic spruced up her powder room and with plank walls and touches of red.
Cozy accent alert! We’re loving these Mongolian wool covered IKEA stools by Albertina at Mimosa Lane inspired by Nadia at Preciously Me.
Here are two fantastic outdoor projects to bring on the good times out in the yard, the first is a deckchair cover by Yvestown blog…
… and this build-it-yourself cooler from Shanty2Chic.
Clever girl… here’s a cheater’s guide to hanging plates by Linda at Burlap + Blue.
Apricot looks so pretty with gold (coral, peach, and blush tones too) – these two makeovers prove it. Jenn from My Fabulous Life upgraded her folding chairs (featured over at Whipperberry.)
Plain X Benches from Target get a fab makeover with new fabric and gold legs, full how to over at Style Me Pretty.
Amazing inspiration by all of these bloggers, wouldn’t you agree? Thanks as always Amanda for being my fellow scout in rounding up these picks, and did you read her big announcement this week? Congratulations!
See y’all back here on Monday!

That little folding chair is about the cutest thing! As soon as I get my big, serious projects done, I need to make some time for something purely for fun. I adore that!!
Happy weekend – Shannon
I’m beyond flattered and grateful that you featured our guest bedroom makeover. Thank you so much and enjoy your offline summer weekends :)

Hi Kate
That baby room is awesome, I’m actually in the middle of making my own crib for our soon-to-be-born son :) I’m a DIY’er and your post gave me some great inspiration, thank you!
The chairs are very lovely. You have given me some great ideas on my next weekend project, thanks!
I love those X benches, those might need to go on my to do list! Thanks for the beautiful round up!
Ohhhh…I love all of these! This is literally my favorite post in all of blogosphere…thanks for sharing all these awesome projects/makeovers! Jesse @ Scout & Nimble
Love the burlap chairs from My FabuLESS Life! (Check your spelling in your post — you, with your blog name, gotta love a frugal play on words).
Hey ladies, thanks for the mention!! I’m in good company here!
Thanks so much for the shout-out!! Glad you love the Mongolian lamb stool. I’m still obsessed with them. All these inspiration ideas are fabulous. Thanks for the round-up!!
