Happy weekend, friends!  We are off to a soccer tournament today which will wrap up our Fall soccer season.  This winter Sawyer is going to play basketball for the first time- I am looking forward to seeing that!  And Emmy continues with dance, taking tap and acro this year.  She practiced her cartwheels all summer long, and it shows.  🙂

Well, let’s cut to the chase today and check out the amazing features from this week.
Please remember: DO NOT PIN FROM THIS POST.  CLICK ON THE LINK TO BE TAKEN TO THE ORIGINAL POST TO LINK FROM THAT, OR REPIN FROM MY FEATURES BOARD.

Retro Restyling shared this amazing buffet…. The color is fabulous!

I am in love with this funky vintage modern piece with it’s fabulous legs from Apprentice Extrovert.

This Restoration knock off bed from Sunshine on the Inside is incredible!  What a lucky boy to have this room!

Another awesome Restoration knockoff came from Make Me Pretty Again….

Picked and Painted showed off this green dresser which has me wanting to paint something green. NOW.  Be right back.

The Little Black Door reupholstered and painted these chairs and they are AWESOME!  And there are some polka dots thrown in there for good measure, too, but you will have to click to see.

This piece from The Hollie Rogue totally caught me by surprise.  It’s a piece I think I would have walked by in the thrift shop, but it looks AMAZING now!  Love the color and those shelves on the sides!

How fabulous is this cycle inspired dresser from Holly Do?  Love it.

I also had a piece emailed to me by a reader, Marla.  She recently redid a buffet and did a beautiful job…
Aren’t they all awesome?  There were so many great links this week, so many new to me blogs, and so many great colors!  I had a blast going through all the links.  Thank you for sharing and inspiring!

    I’m up early too to head out for soccer. Two more games. It’s cold out! OH and I’m in love with the mid-century modern end table. So cute. Have a nice weekend!

    It’s amazing what a little paint can do! I LOVE the green dresser. I painted and sold one like this, same color, a long time ago. I’ve regretted it every since.

You probably had no idea, but I got on an airplane two days ago and flew out to Los Angeles to visit my brother and help him with his kitchen.  He bought the cutest bungalow in Echo Park and has been working on redoing it all himself with the help of his girlfriend and friends.  Yesterday while he worked, Viri and I worked on priming walls, and designing the space color wise.  I am sure they will send me pictures when it is all done so I can share them with you!  Tomorrow, we head out to the Rose Bowl Flea market where I will meet up with Ali and Lisa (who by the way are identical twins!) and am sooooo excited!

Ok, enough making you jealous…. let’s get to POWW faves!
Kim from A Brush of Whimsy completed a large and gorgeous custom order for a client!  I am sure that was one happy client!

Girl V. the World redid a fabulous French chair- looove the ticking stripe on it!

Rachel at A Suite Revival shared this awesome gradient desk- I am loving the yellows!

Amy from The Salvage Collection redid this awesome waterfall piece.  I love the fun and off center stencils- they add interest and quirkiness, and I love that!

And lastly, I am soooo loving the wood grain effect from Lisa from Recaptured Charm.

    Hi Cassie!
    I am writing to solicit some of your expert advice. I love your blog and your creations and would love some advisement. I scored some beautiful pieces of antique furniture for FREE today and wondered what I should do with them – paint or not? Would you mind sending me some thoughts and ideas my way? You can view the pictures at the link listed below:

    THanks for your help! It is much appreciated!
