Happy Monday friends! I hope you are all enjoying the last little bit of the long weekend? We just got back from a wonderful family-filled weekend at the lake. It was a great time except for the hike we took through the woods that resulted in poor little Gus getting covered in hundreds of tiny little burrs embedded in his fur. Needless to say it was pretty stressful but several hours of carefully cutting them and his hair off with scissors (which is how I normally cut his hair), left him A-OK. Whew! That's what being a puppy mama is all about!
Speaking of the woods, I came across this absolutely fantastic
DIY project! They are tree stumps, but the tops have been painted to give them a smooth surface. So they end up being this fabulous blend of rustic and modern extra seating, plant stands, etc. What a great idea if you have an abundance of log bits nearby!
I must have J go cut me some stumps so I can have a tree table in my house. If you want to see the full step-by-step instructional on Martha Stewart's site, you can go

What did you do this weekend? My thoughts and prayers are with Karen from
Restyled Vintage, whose city in New Zealand was struck by the recent earthquake. She is okay but it's just another reminder how precious every moment is in our lives.
Have a great day my dear friends.
