I love summer. Lately, our house has been full of roses, mint and thyme sprigs, and other clippings from the yard. There was a point a few years ago, when I was like a plant thief… anytime I saw a plant I liked, I’d take a piece and try to root it at home. Most didn’t really turn out. Renee to the rescue! Renee from Wolfie and the Sneak does a weekly gardening post on Modish, and last week it was all about how to root plants. (Asprin, who knew?) Erin of Reading My Tea Leaves recently posted this great idea (above) for simple DIY hanging wall vases, and I’m determined to combine the two.

It’s been a few weeks since we had a sweet recipe, and this Pear Turnover from Pictures and Pancakes looks delicious. The Purcell’s promise it’s easy!

Ack, where do the days go?! Here it is the middle of June, and I’m just now realizing the month has changed and it’s time for this month’s favorite three. Better late than never, yes?

Secret Pocket is a new-to-me find. Blogger Kenzie and I share a love for thrift store finds, and she’s always making something wonderful, like this quick baby quilt.

Mariah blogs from Cape Town, South Africa (what a place to be this month!) and her new blog is full of treasures.

I was a little surprised to look through my list of past blog favorites and not find Danni’s. Danni Hong is a graphic designer, jewelry maker, and bride-to-be. I met Danni at Alt this year and found her to be as sweet as you’d expect.
