Thanks to The First Grade Parade for hosting this fun new Friday Linky Party!  Cara Carroll is amazing, as I'm sure you know, and I'm super excited to link up!  If you haven't visited Cara's blog, definitely check it out; you won't be sorry!  Click the button above to visit the Linky Party!

What a fun party, huh?  Considering I'm Pinterest-obsessed and what not.  Whoo!  So let's get started, shall we?

In no particular order, here are some of my fave pins of late:

How freakin' cute is that?!  Looks pretty simple to make, too!  The original post said she got the river stones at Dollar General, too!  She's clearly my kinda gal.  :)

Brilliant.  This is from an art blog, but I think this would be an amazing back to school activity to inspire creativity and have students write about their final product.  ?!  Love it.

I am loving this idea!  We've been wanting to get a canopy for our backyard by the pool, but the ones we like are all too big for our tiny patio area--This looks pretty doable, huh??
