Time Travel Thursday #112 & Talented Time Travelers #111


"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 112th Time Travel Thursday linky party at The Brambleberry Cottage!

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

You know the routine!  Gotta show off some creativity from
our talented time travelers from last week first.
 

Although my Yankee is not too keen on
 having a lot of feminine touches around the cottage,
he doesn't seem to mind when they're part of a pretty tablescape,
like this one by Michele @ the nest at finch rest.


The concept of constructing a shed from
salvaged materials is not a new one.

But this quaint potting shed, shared by
Penny @ Penny's Vintage Home, has an interesting twist
on that concept.  Her components came from all over the U.S.A.   ; )


If you've been a DIYer for any length of time,
you've probably experienced the "what am I going to do with THIS" blues.

That was the very dilemma Carrie @ Hooked on Decorating 
faced with this drum table—before she decided to give it
a gorgeous stencil makeover.


This charming dining room is the result of a
 little "sprucing up" by Katie Sue @ Let's Add Sprinkles.

The paint color she chose for the walls—Martha Stewart's Driftwood—creates
the perfect backdrop for her lovely furnishings.


Since so many of the projects around The Brambleberry Cottage
 are a collaborative effort between The Yankee and me,
it's always fun to see the work of other husband & wife teams.


This gorgeous table, by Paul and Cathy @ One Creative Couple, is proof positive
that two creative minds working in unison is a beautiful thing.

So what have you been up to this week?
