My Favorite Projects: May 2011

Happy June!  June is probably my favorite month of the year.  It's the start of summer, I like the warm weather and long days, and is also my birthday month! Woohoo!  But before we get too far into June, here's a look at what happened in May with a breakdown of my favorite projects that I came across- yours and mine.

In May, I...

...added a retaining wall in my front yard 

...got an outdoor gazebo

...made a crab & avocado appetizer

...made a summer coffee table centerpiece

...and stenciled a quatrefoil tray

I came across lots of great projects in other blogs too.  Reading other blogs is my favorite form of inspiration!
