Creative Ideas found on various blogs!

I found this creative idea on one of the various blogs I look at and think...I can do that!!!  Unfortunately, I don't have any small girls to make this for and I think they would put me in a home if a woman my age wore this...but I think I could make it for some birthdays or baby shower gifts.  Cute, huh?

These are the steps: 
1.  Pick the flowers you wish to use.
2. Cut a small rectangle of felt
3.  Glue felt to headband



4.  Start to glue the flowers onto the rectangel.

5.  Place the arrangements to cover the entire piece of felt.



7. Voila!!!!!

This idea was placed on the blog: Shanty2Chic!

I have decided to devote my blogs all week to things I found on various blogs.   I love this idea.  This is a bench made from an old headboard.  Isn't it lovely?  I would love to make this myself.  I think I might need to scout out the local Goodwill's or Craigslist.

My Best Friend

I never had no one that I could count on
I've been that down so many times
I was tired of hurtin' so tired of searchin'
Til you walked into my life
It was a feelin' I'd never known
And for the first time I didn't feel alone

Your more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh, we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
I don't know where I'd be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You're my best friend
You're my best friend

You stand beside me you believe in me
Like nobody ever has
When my world goes crazy
You're right there to save me
You make me see how much I have
And I still tremble when we touch
And, oh, the look in your eyes
When we make love

You're more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh, we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
And I don't know where I'd be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You're my best friend
You're my best friend....

Grow old along with me
The best is yet to be
When our time has come
We will be as one
God bless our love
God bless our love

Grow old along with me
Two branches of one tree
Face the settng sun
When the day is done
God bless our love
God bless our love

Spending our lives together
Man and wife together
World without end
World without end

Grow old along with me
Whatever fate decrees
We will see it through
For our love is true
God bless our love
God bless our love

Isn't this picture romantic?  I think the couple is so enamored of each other that they are totally oblivious to everything around them.  My desire is for all of us to experience this in our lives.  Some of us are lucky enough to have it everyday.  Others are lucky to have had brief moments.  But they are there to remind us that the power of love supercedes everything else.

Isn't this a wonderfully romantic picture?  I just love it.  I am not sure where I found it online...but I quickly saved it to my personal favorites.  I want to spend some time in a park with my honey and just neck a while.  Sounds like so much fun.  When was the last time you just 'made out' with your significant other?!?!?!  I think I need to be more than just nostalgic.  I need to rekindle all of those first buds of new love.  Ooooh...that sounds incredibly good to me.  Tony- "I love you soooooo hard"!

I saw this picture in a photo contest on a website for Pioneer Woman.  I fell in love with it instantly.  You look at the picture and wonder how many years have they been together?  Has it been so long that one personality blends into the other?  Do they know what each other is thinking without having to ask?  Are they so in sync that they know just what the other person needs before that person even has a chance to realize it?  I love everything about romantic love.  The sweet embrace that brings joy and comfort in good times and in bad.  I know that this emotion is a gift sent to us from our Father in Heaven.  We came from a home filled with love and happiness.  Our spirits continually long for these feelings.  When we are touched, caressed or held tenderly it gives us just the touch of Heaven our spirits need.
