Friday Send-Off

Well, friends -- it's that time of the week.  Time for me to sign off and start my weekend.  I plan on doing some serious crafting tomorrow since I am finally finished with the decrapification of our apartment.  Things have been reorganized and donated, and I feel great about starting new projects now and ending the glorious time I have had with Spring Cleaning.  Now, it's time to move forward and create!  I am very excited.  :-)  Tomorrow should be a great day for crafting, too -- it's supposed to rain!  Nothing better than a heavy dose of DIY on a rainy day.  ;-)

In case you missed out, here are some of my favorite things that happened this week on All Things Luxurious...

Our little bathroom updo.  We are so excited about this!

All Things Luxurious was given the Yostie Blog Award, and I chose to honor a great blog, Laid Off Mom, in response!

We were also awarded the Versatile Blogger Award, and I passed that on to fifteen of my favorite bloggers!

And, we talked Tolix chairs and their pure awesomeness.

Here's some inspiration to start your weekend.  :-)

Amazing corner cupboards in a lovely traditional kitchen.

A great neutral office with a dreamy eclectic mirrored side table.  I dig.

Spring crafts are in full swing -- love this mossy letter for your front door.

Something that made me laugh out loud.  BOOP!

Some inspiration for our *Someday* Woodsy Vacation Home -- orange candle votives for a warm glow.

A lovely home with an abundance of windows.  Yes, please.

Have breakfast in bed daily with a delicious breakfast comforter.  Because, well, why not?

Some puppy love.  Sweet, right?

Some lovely words for you and yours.

A cutie pie room for the kiddies.  That chandelier is amazing!

Some fabulous bedding.  Seriously.  Excuse me while I melt.

A recipe for Orange Yogurt Loaf Cake.  Perfect for a Spring brunch.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!  :-)  I'll catch ya back here in Monday.

love, maria

Friday Send-Off

I hope that you all have had a wonderful week.  Mine has been a busy one, for sure.  I did a lot of Spring organization and I am hoping to do more next week.  :-)

I cleaned up my kitchen and made a few changes, as well as spruced up my cupboards because, if you read that post, you know that I was in desperate need.

I blogged about my friend Louise's DIY Mantel Project -- the transformation was amazing, let me tell you!  ;-)

My friend Deborah from Ceiling Tiles By Us guest-blogged about this amazing company with a fabulous product!

I finally tackled our laundry room and made it a happier place to be -- sometimes I even open the door just to take a peek inside now!  ;-)

And finally, my hubby and I took a trip to Ikea and bought ourselves some new furniture for our apartment.  It was a great day when we got all of that set up!  :-)

Here's some inspiration to start your weekend.

A beautiful garden path around the side of a house.  Don't you just love that green?

Organized kitchen drawers.  So fresh.

Adorable, bright, wire wastepaper bins -- perfect for a home office.

Something funny to make you laugh.

A fabulous, white closet filled with all the colors of Spring.

Cutie polka dot napkins for your Easter tablescape.

A kitchen with a ladder -- because that's just pure awesome.

A beautiful lace wedding dress.  Absolute perfection.

A fabulous chalkboard wall for the kiddos.  Because every kid wants to draw on the walls.

Pretty pink odds and ends.

Happy Easter to all of you, my wonderful readers.

love, maria
