The Saturday Six for May 30, 2009
>> Saturday, May 30, 2009
1.) Cynthia's Cottage Design
This blog will give you "feast for the imagination" for literally hours. Packed with photos of all of her pretty things, if you struggle with coveting, beware! :0) Seeing how she uses all her pretty reds and blues has me rethinking my plans to redo our color scheme here in our home. I'm afraid my husband won't go for all that lacy, embroidered stuff though, I need a play house! Maybe I can talk him into adding that to his long to-do list this summer! :o) By the way, Cynthia was who led me to this next real gem of a find . . . .
2.)Aunt Ruthie's Sugar Pie Farmhouse
This is where you'll find ideas to help make your home as sweet as Sugar Pie! Aunt Ruthie is a Mama on a mission! She wants to encourage homemakers of all ages to turn their hearts back home and create a warm and cozy nest for their loved ones. We can't control what happens in the world, but we can do a lot of things to make sure our home is safe, secure and filled with comfort, joy and love. It's all about blessing those who are dear to our hearts! While you're there, be sure to join the Sugar Pie Sisterhood, I just did! I don't want to miss a thing that Aunt Ruthie has to offer!
3.)Silverwinds Blog Fun
Looking to give your blog a fun face lift? Then look no further than Silverwinds! Unless of course you're a complete perfectionist control freak like me! I've been thinking about a little face lift myself lately, yes, I miss my reds and blue, thanks in part to spending TOO much time at the aforementioned sites (#1 and #2), but, it's not high on my list this summer, maybe late summer! :0)
4.) A High and Noble Calling
Bringing glory to God as Homemakers, Wives and Mothers. This is a lovely blog with a lot of inspirational content! I would tell you more about it's author, except that she is currently re-doing her "About Me" page. A few of the posts that particularly interested me were on her "Bare Bones Budget". Our family is looking for ways to save a few dollars here and there, I think I might have to spend some more time reading over some of her ideas!
5.) Homeschool Goodies
Resources for Catholic Homeschoolers. I've mentioned before that our family is not Catholic, but that we incorporate many elements of the Catholic faith into our own home and family life. This website has a plethora of resources that are useful whether you are Catholic or not. Just this week I was reminded of Barnes & Nobles Summer Reading Plan and to register for Book It! This is a wonderful site to put in your favorites!
6.)Faith Filled Days in the Domestic Church
A great resource for ideas for following the Liturgical Year! Plus, one of my favorite Catholic bloggers is a contributor here, Jessica, from Shower of Roses!
So there you have it, nesters! Hope you have a F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S weekend!
Affectionately,
Mother Titmouse
