I can’t believe how fast the days on the calendar tick off.
We’re just a little more than a week away from Memorial Day.

Last year I created a truly homespun and patriotic table.  It’s one I really enjoyed a lot, too.

I hope that you’ll be able to take away some Memorial Day tablescape ideas that you can use for your celebration this year.

What do you usually do for Memorial Day weekend?

Do you have a party planned?

Speaking of party….I am sooo excited that you have joined us again this week.

I cannot wait to see your extraordinary inspiration.

But, before we jump into it….

Beginning this weekend, I’ll plan to have a features post each Saturday with a round-up of your extraordinary projects from Project Inspire{d}.

The Monday Project Inspire{d} post will be a little more brief.  [This week it’s a little brief because I’ve been spending a lot of time with some paint and a project that will debut on the blog this Thursday.  Be sure to check back for that.]  I know that when I go to parties with lengthy posts I don’t always have the time to browse all the delightful eye candy.  Since I’m thinking you might be like me…I thought Saturday would a great day to wrap up the week.  Are you in?

Oh…I’m trying to come up with a name for the Saturday features….so if you have a creative idea…leave a comment, please!

And now…on to our party!

Mary Beth from Cupcakes and Crinoline    ~   Malia from Yesterday on Tuesday

Features from Last Week’s Party

My Picks….

Tired mommies everywhere will want their own Merit Badges for all that stuff that gets done everyday
that nobody notices and everyone takes for granted.  Plus, you all will want to read Aubrey’s very
creative take on what mommies do with their day.  This is one very entertaining post.
