Time Travel Thursday #94 & Talented Time Travelers #93


"We all have our time machines. Some take us back, they're called memories.
Some take us forward, they're called dreams."
~Jeremy Irons~


Welcome to the 94th Time Travel Thursday linky party at The Brambleberry Cottage!

Are you ready to share your fondest memories, grandest dreams,
and most creative projects? Great!

But you know what we always do first—
showcase some of our talented time travelers from the past week.


Craigslist is one of my favorite places to shop. 
I will happily take someone else's trash and turn it into a treasure.

That's exactly what Suzanne @ Thrift Store Decor Junky did with
 an armoire she found on Craigslist.

Doesn't it make a super fun and funky craft station?


We all know how popular typography and letter art is right now.
But it can be fairly expensive if you don't go the DIY route—like

Her clever, inexpensive art adds just the right pop of color to her wall!



Just like you, I'm really big into recycling things that otherwise might be
destined for the dump...or best case scenario, the thrift store. 

Yet, Grant and Brittany @ live your life found a
diamond in the rough that I probably would have stepped
over, around—even on—without having given it a second look.

You'll have to go see what this lovely little bench looked like prior
to the TLC it received to understand what I mean.


I truly enjoy
seeing before-and-after makeovers...
of just about anything.

You cannot imagine what this lovely vanity, by Carrie @ Hooked On Decorating
  looked like prior to her creative touch.


One of the things I like about Moda Fabrics is
 their mix of mod and retro colors and patterns.

Sarah @ ALDERBERRY HILL used some of the Moda
fabrics she had stashed away to create this fabulous pillow
It adds an old-yet-new feel to her chair.


But...
enough about last week!
Set about dazzling us with this week's creations.   ; )

  15. I really like those black and white doors. The design looks similar to our side bar. I have been noticing it all over in the shops.
