Swing into Spring - It's a Party #9

Welcome to this week's Swing into Spring party.  Last week there were 135 linkups at the party!!!  Wow -  that's a great party.  So much talent and so much inspiration.  I appreciate all of you joining in the fun.  Hopefully you too have made some new friends along the way.  Before we get started with tonight's party, I wanted to feature a few standouts from last week:

When I saw this photo I thought it was wallpaper.  Instead, Andrea created this using a stencil in an Ikat pattern.  I just love it.

My son loves Star Wars, so when I saw this pillow made by Natalie, I just had to feature it.  This is a totally no-sew project.  I also learned what Frey Check is...looks like a cool product.

Danielle brought an old glider back to life by re-upholstering it.  She did an awesome job!

Amy from Maison Decor created this shabby chic partial slipcover for her sofa.  So shabby chic!  Check out her smocked drapes from Pottery Barn.  Aren't they gorgeous?

A Vintage Vine  made this bench out of a coffee table - I just love it.  You have to go and check out exactly how she did it.

If you were featured, please grab an "I've Been Featured" button from my sidebar.  Now let's get started with this week's party.  I can't wait to see what you have been up to.  Link up anything you have been working on...home decor, sewing, crafts, organizing, baking, recipes etc.  I will keep the link open through Friday.




A few rules:
1.  Please become a follower.  

2.  Please grab my party button above and display it either on your sidebar or somewhere in your post.  This way word can spread about the party.  The more people at the party, the more fun we will have.

3.  Please enter the link to your actual post, not just a link to your main blog page.

4. Please visit others who have linked up.   Everyone works hard on their projects and blogs...let's show each other some love by visiting each other.  Let's have some fun and hopefully make a few new friends along the way.

Ok...Let's Party
