Fab Friday Favorites

I hope you enjoy this weeks Fab Friday Favorites! I know I was inspired.

I'm in an organizing mood and these magazine files from The Cottage Home are pretty and practical. The tutorial is great with lots of pictures. You use scrap book paper - think of the endless possibilities!



These coffee burlap pillows are a take on a Pottery Barn style. I wish I had a little sunroom off my kitchen to have these sitting about. They are from Sew Dang Cute and has a tutorial.



Now this is So Dang Cute! The House of  Hepworths has updated a mundane soap dispenser into high fashion. I want this but maybe in orange!



My friend has been talking about Alphabet Photography Art done in her last name for her bedroom. Here is a DIY version which could save some serious $$ by Reinvented. I'm going to have to play around and see if I can put together her name and then my last name also! I'll keep you posted!



Little Orange Monkeys has an absolutely fab idea for a memo board. I've been looking for ideas for one for myself and this is definitely at the top of my list.



My burlap fascination continues. Tatertots and Jello has a tutorial on how to make this lovely ruffled burlap tablecloth.



This Ballard Designs monogrammed is inspired and is from BLJ Graves Studio.



OK, this is absolutely beautiful. I LOVE this woven pillow from WhimsiKel. When I was little my Mother made me a woven pillow for my bed - how I loved it. And I love this modern version just as much. Pillow, pillow - where can I put another pillow?!



And finally we have from Twitterpated with Paper lovely vintage looking coasters. This has my brain churning - Christmas gifts?!



OK, I fibbed. I couldn't resist one more for this week. Decorative balls are really popular in blogland - twine, moss, worlds, etc. The girls at Straight Stitches came up with this great button ball. LOVE.



I hope you have a great weekend and come back Monday to see what's cooking In the Kitchen. Right now it'll be a surprise for me too, since I have no idea what I'm going to make. I've been wanting to make a coconut pie hmmm... we'll see!
