A new Blog Feature! "DID YOU SEE THIS FRIDAY"?

Good Morning Friends! TGIF! 
Hope your weekend goes well ! I am so exicited to start a new weekly feature here at A VINTAGE VINE......It's called,  "DID YOU SEE THIS FRIDAY".....I wanted a way to highlight my readers and followers and give them a HIGH "5" for a project/idea or post that really caught my eye during the week......It is my way of saying..."job well done"....There are so many talented, creative and just DARN awesome people who follow/comment and read my blog and I wanted to let the rest of the blog world know!
Here is the plan.....every week I will highlight and introduce 3 bloggers and their posts that really impressed me so much that I wanted to say....."Hey, did you see that"?!

Here we go.....First up!....Cassie @ Primitive and Proper...Can you believe her Bookcases! That color combo just stopped me in my tracks! Cassie, seriously I thought those bookcases look wonderful naked....But then you STYLED them, perfectly! 

Next in line....."Hey did you see that.....KITCHEN" @ Jenny's blog,  Evolution of Style. Could a kitchen get any more gorgeous? She painted these cabinets herself....They look like a professional did it! Now, if you think painting kitchen cabinets are the only thing Jenny does well.....WRONG! While you visit her blog check out her paneled headboard....I thought it was so wonderful,  it inspired me to put a MDF wall in my Master Bedroom

Our final entry in "Did you see this Friday" is my blogging buddy Alicia @ Sweet Ava Kate.....
Here was her first furniture painting project.....Can you believe that, I think her first project scored a "home run". Love the color and the style is wonderful Alicia!
Alicia and I are not only blogging friends we are friends in the real world too.....Our daughters were good friends first and now we are too! She is a great friend and I admire her style.

Hope you enjoyed my first installment of  "DID YOU SEE THIS FRIDAY"!
Look out blogging friends, I will be out snooping for next weeks candidates!! 

On another note....Thanks so much Ali @ Ooh La la Co. Her Etsy shop rocks and she made me this special order Garland PomPom....I am loving how it looks on my mantle....Yes, can you believe I changed it again.....
Look how cute her packaging is!!!
Have a great day and thanks for coming by!

  24. I love your kitchen. I just moved into my own house and I need to make some repairs. My kitchen looks awful. I have been told that New York kitchen cabinets
    are the best. Everything in New York is always better. Any advise?
