People inspire you, or they drain you – pick them wisely.

HANS F HANSEN

I am so glad this weekend is wrapping up. I am physically drained from spending time with family and friends. From our 10-year reunion to the Smokey Hill River Festival, this was a crazy weekend. I am ready to get back into the swing of things with this week’s edition of Sally’s Pins:

Bite-Size Burgers: This is such an adorable idea. Why not get what you love in each bite by combining burgers and fries?

Mint Green Office: I love the subtle mint combined with the bright white in this office. It’s so pretty and simple.

Balloons as Bubbles: What an easy idea! I love the varying sizes of the balloons and the pearl color theme.

Salted Caramel Nutella Brownies: Salted Caramel Cupcakes are my favorite, but this brownie takes the caramel cake. Just look at that thick layer right on top.

Iced Coffee: Freeze coffee as ice cubes and use in milk. Why didn’t I think of this?

Soft Joie Asti B Maxi Dress: I have been living in maxi dresses, but I love how this one synchs in the waist.

The Wonder of Spray Paint: I am dying to update some of our brass features, and I can’t believe all I need is some Rustoleum Oil Rubbed Bronze Spray Paint.

Easy Centerpiece: Take big Styrofoam ball and stick lollipops into it. What an easy way to make a big colorful impact.

Copy Cat Recipe Panera Bread Broccoli Cheese Soup: This is my favorite thing to get at Panera. I can’t wait to see how close this recipe tastes to the real thing.

How To Fix Dents in Wooden Floors & Furniture (With an Iron): My floors have taken a beating from years of wild dogs, so I will be testing this method out for sure.

10 Posing Tips for Group Portraits: I need all the help I can get in the photography department. I can’t wait to check out these tips and try them in action.

Pomander Step-By-Step: I hope Hobby Lobby has one of these paper punchers so I can create my first pomander!

Family Halloween Costumes: I know Halloween is still months away, but I couldn’t stop laughing at these hilarious family costumes!

How To Be A Loofah For Halloween: For a sexier version, this Halloween costume is sure to make you stand out in the crowd.

Art Party: Can I have an adult version of this??? I guess it would be like throwing my own version of Wine and Palette.

If you cannot tell, I am dying to break out the canvases and relive my youth.

What was the last art project you did?
