What to do Weekends #120

Welcome to What to do Weekends!
Happy Thursday Evening! Thank you all so much for your Participation in our party, we enjoy you all so much!  You are all SO creative!! Invite your friends! Help us spread the word! Now,  we can't wait to see what you have been up to this week!!  Thank you for returning and sharing with us each week!  We always like to let you know what we've been up to on these Thursday nights, as well. We'd love it if you would visit the post we're sharing with you tonight!
So What has Linda been up to? Just take a look at this yummy Summer Blueberry Jello Pie!

Just a Couple of Guidelines 
that we'd truly appreciate you taking into consideration.
We have prided ourselves on being a "no rules" type of party, and that will not change. We would appreciate it if, however, you:
~You wouldn't link up the exact same post 2 weeks in 
a row, our readers will have just seen your entry and we'd 
like to keep it fresh for them.
~We'd love to encourage you to share some of your last 
year's Spring posts, too! Please, do have a look at Linda's & Theresa's blog style (or niche, so-to-speak) and link appropriate and like-minded crafts, recipes, projects and Inspirations! 
Now onto this weeks Features! always so difficult to keep it to our planned number. We'd love to feature you all!

We encourage you to share some of your last 
year's Spring posts, too!
 Let's get on with the FEATURES! YAY!


DIY~Make Your Own Vintage Floral Cone

I have had the most fun working on this pretty project!  I bought the stems (that I have always wanted  but couldn't afford) at Michael's because I had 70% off!!  That's the only reason I could get the ones I always wanted!  I'm telling you, watch the ads, wait and go in when you have a extra percentage off coupon pulled up on your smartphone!  I thought I bought them to make my Spring into Summer Wreath for my front door.  As I was working, separating the stems,  I realized how much sheer volume I had and quickly was aware that I could make more than just the wreath out of them! Woohoo!! So my brain started racing with ideas of what else I could do with this abundance of beauty!

Well, I don't know if you've had a chance to check our Linda's Yummy Blueberry recipes yet, but if not, her Blueberry Breakfast Bake is one not to be missed! So yummy!
As for me, I have been working very hard on trying to complete my newest chalk paint tray, that has turned into an Epic Fail! But it is is on it's way to becoming a Beautiful Success! I should be able to share that with you tonight or tomorrow. Trays and chalk paint, they are bit of an obsession of mine, but I do use them all the time!  You can check out my first Chalk Painted Tray out HERE!

How Music Speaks To Us

Certain things just ring true.  Does that happen to you?
Sometimes they ring so true,  I have a deep need to share them.  My faith sung out loud is one of those things. Not just any song.  There are some songs, though, whose truth so reflect the feelings in my heart,  that they can bring a smile to my face that can't be wiped away,  or bring tears of utter Joy.

(source)
This is one of those songs.  I hope that it will light up your Friday night or anytime that you choose to hear it.  Not just listen, but hear.  Words have power.  I don't think anyone would question that.  So,  I guess, then,  the question really is...... are we listening to the right words?  I'm trying. I fail. Still, I try.
