Potpourri Friday #38


Hi everyone!  Hope this has been a wonderful week for all of you.  I have had company for the past two weeks, the last of which left this morning.  I miss them already...the house is so quite.
This week I did re-arrange the little shelf in the stairwell.


 And made Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream

  It's really easy to choose highlights, as all of the are links are highlights in my opinion, but it's really hard to narrow it down to a few to feature.  There are a lot of features this week, so grab a cup of coffee, or a glass of wine and sit back, visit and enjoy!

Kat at Boulder Dam Cottage refurbishes a 1940 vintage couch with fabulous results


reveals her hallway transformation

Geneva gives her bathroom a French Country Twist at 
My Heart's Song

At Betsy Speert's, Betsy show off her beautiful and serene Cottage master bedroom 

Liv, at Sew a Fine Seam, reveals her newly redecorated living room

Jeannine at The Concrete Cottage makes a French script lamp shade, complete with instructions

Debra begins her seasonal changes at


Janet at Decorating Diaries finds a true treasure trove and decorates with drawers

Stephanie decorates her favorite chippy cabinet with discovered locker baskets.  You will find her at

At Chateau Chic, Mary Alice  does a little decorating with lavender


 At Timeless Treasures, Audrey recycles an old tote box into a beauty which she stages with a gorgeous vintage tablecloth


As Jacqueline at Cabin and Cottage and her charming tablescape remind us, the sunflower signals the beginning of a changing of seasons

Ginger, the Savannah Granny, treats us to her  Bailey's Coffee Set collection, along with some history

I really like the way Mary goes fishing at


Suzan of Simply Vintageous recalls Anne of
 Green Gables


At The Driftwood Cottage, Stephanie gives her French dresser a metallic blue glaze


We love entertainment here at Potpourri Friday, so enjoy the Deep in the Heart of Texas set to pictures by Sue, the  Collectin Texas Gal
