Time Travel Thursday #114 & Talented Time Travelers #113


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

Welcome to the 114th Time Travel Thursday linky party at The Brambleberry Cottage!

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

Well, let's revisit a few of our
talented time travelers from last week's party first.


Teresa @ MAGAZINE YOUR HOME has been attempting to
create a cottage farmhouse look throughout her abode.

When she found this fun funky-junk light fixture
at her favorite flea market, she knew it was the
perfect score for her theme.


As you're changing out your summer attire for
fall frippery, you may discover a few sweaters that
no longer make the grade.

Don't toss them out! 

Visit Sarah @ ALDERBERRY HILL and discover how to
turn your castoff into a cute autumn adornment.


Even without its sentimental attachments,
this beautiful desk would have been a perfect candidate for a makeover.  Not only
does it have great bones, but take a look at that gorgeous hardware!

Angela @ Number Fifty-Three knew just how to bring out its hidden
beauty—with a little bit of elbow grease and a lot of love.


As the wave of warm summer breezes gives way to
cool, crisp mornings, sightings of warm-weather
creatures become all the more scarce.

That made this colorful, winged beauty a very welcomed
visitor to the garden of Debra @ HOMESPUN.


Now it's your turn to show us how those
creative juices have been flowing for you this past week.   ; )

Time Travel Thursday #113 & Talented Time Travelers #112

Welcome to the 113th Time Travel Thursday linky party at The Brambleberry Cottage!

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

First, we'll take a peek at some of the wonderful things shared 
by our talented time travelers last week.


If ever there were an
ugly-duckling transformation
to quack about, this would be it.

Obviously, the basic bones of the piece
were a huge plus from the start.  But the paint and fabric—skillfully chosen and
applied by Gina @ Random Thoughts—are what really caused
this gorgeous swan to emerge so gracefully.


I think this is just the coolest idea for
 chalkboards on a fridge!

Brenda @ cottage4c had the brilliant idea to construct hers as
separate units and attach them with super strong magnets.


If you appreciate farmhouse charm as much as I do,
you'll want to be sure to pay Angie @ Knick of Time a visit.

Her newly remodel kitchen is delightful!


I love finding alternatives to the unhealthy, chemical-ladden
desserts and drinks being thrust at us from every direction.

This yummy shake shared by Good Girl Gone Green
is sure to tickle your taste buds.

OK, share your talent with us again this week!
