Sweet Inspiration Link Party #55

5/5/2017

41 Comments

 
Welcome to our Fifty-Fifth Sweet Inspiration Link Party.

It has been a busy week.  I cleaned out the closets and ended up with 5 bags of clothing to be donated. Woo hoo! And I'm not done yet!  It feels so good to let go of things we no longer wear! I've also been spending some time at the farm, helping my husband a bit with the garden and planting trees. I hope you all have an enjoyable weekend!

Please only pin from the original blog post, just click on the links below, they will lead you there! Thanks!

We will be visiting all of you who link up with us.  We always appreciate your visits.

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this beautiful creation that Larr over at Feathering My Empty Nest made for Mother’s day. I would never be able to eat something so gorgeous. Well maybe a tiny piece, from the back, where no-one can see.

Stephanie from Abbott’s at Home made this gorgeous L-shaped bench for Season 3 of the IG Builders Challenge and it’s a winner.

 I wish I knew how to crochet because I love this adorable basket from Anabelia from the blog Anabelia Handmade. It is perfect for any room of the house

Avocados are one of my favorite foods and this round up by Jessica from the blog Dreaming of Leaving made my really hungry. It will be difficult to pick only one so I must try them all!

Daphne of Ivy, Phyllis and Me has some great tips on how we can make roses last long. She also has a funny tale about the weather.

 I love the simplicity of this mobile that Amy of Health, Home and Heart created. It is so full of color and movement.

This week we have a surprise.  It looks like you all couldn't choose just one favorite. 

Meg of Hello Farmhouse shares some of her favorite Farmhouse flowers. So pretty!

Jodie of Touch of Style shows us how to wear athletic shoes with leggings.  And she looks fabulous!

We are reviving lemon trees mostly. My husband takes twigs and attaches them to the trunks. And then they grow to be hearty trees. I did a short video which I'll upload soon.

Oh, a lemon orchard! Do you sell the lemons or somehow preserve them? I have to go look for the video...
Do you mean tree grafting/budding? We have one peach tree that is grafted to produce two different kinds of peaches :)

Btw, I just now got your email notification about the party - two days late....hm.

Hope your weekend was wonderful!
