I don't know about you but I've been having DIY withdrawal as I haven't been able to work on any pieces this week.  The moving trucks are coming tomorrow.  Hooray! (Yikes! - have so much packing left to do)

Silver Pennies Sundays: Link Party & Features (18)

Happy, happy Sunday!  Hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day.  It was a busy week here last week.  Mother's Day, my birthday, my hubby away on business and lots and lots of packing.  I enjoyed all of your projects last week!  I really am living vicariously as I can't do any projects with the move on Tuesday.

I may try to sneak to a flea market this morning (even though I'm not supposed to buy anything until after the move).  Let's party shall we?!?

Here are some of the projects that caught my eye last week:

My lovely friend Jennifer over at This Is The Finest Kind Of Life shared this fantastic chalkboard dining table with chalk board paint she made herself.  I love how it came out - dramatic, playful and perfect for house with children:

Lite Margaritas

Who says margaritas are only for Cinco de Mayo?

Not I...

Our Walls Are Bare

and soon our cupboards will be too!

Chalk Paint & Every Girl

All of us girls love chalk painted furniture, right?!?

Happy, Happy Sunday!  To all the yummy mummies out there wishing you all a very Happy Mother's Day.  Yesterday I shared a wonderful day out with my mom.  Today I'm looking forward to lots hugs and kisses from my boys.

Oh, and partying with you all!

Such lovely projects and ideas were linked up at last week's party.  Loved them all!  Here are some that really stood out.

I am in love with this chair created by Rachel from Shades of Blue Interiors.  She teaches us a great painting technique to create a French Bleu - such a pretty and soft effect.  I can't wait to try this on something.  She is also sharing some reupholstery tips, too, so head on over to her blog to check them out:
