In The Spotlight
Welcome to In The Spotlight – a new column that features a linked post from the previous edition of Friendship Friday that caught our eye!
Father’s Day is coming. Does picking the perfect gift for your Dad stump you every year?
If so, instead of filling your Father’s closet with more unneeded ties, sweaters and Old Spice, why not create a gorgeous gift he’ll remember and use for years to come?
Theresa at Dear Creatives shared the perfect DIY project with us this week – a Decopauge Galavnized Steel Box for Dad that’s perfect for him to toss his keys, coins and other knick knacks in – and perfect for you to show off your handiwork and use up some of those decorative papers that are lying around your craft room!
Be sure to visit Theresa for the full instructions for this fabulous project – and while you’re there, have fun exploring her fabulous blog!
Thanks for partying with us each week at Friendship Friday! Be sure to leave a comment as we’d love to get to know you better!
We look forward to the opportunity to highlight you in an upcoming In The Spotlight or Friend Of The Week feature!

I really enjoyed the graduation speech. When you husband is an educator you sit through a lot of mundane (or downright boring) speeches. Maybe I should suggest him to the university! This pinterest thing is fun! Thank you for sharing your space. Blessings…
