It's been difficult for us to choose just one feature each. Your vintage finds, vignettes and just plain creativity have been awesome!

Carol of The Red Painted Cottage chases the winter blues away with a unique decorating idea, one that I just love. As a self-professed "antlers lover" I am always fascinated by new and different ways to display antlers. And Carol certainly wins the blue ribbon for her delicately flowered makeover of an old set of antlers that really needed a spring refresh. I'm now on the hunt for another set of antlers that I can gussy up as well! See Carol's Decorating An Antler For Spring With Tutorial to get the lowdown on how to create our own!

Melissa's Antiques is one of my favorite blogs to follow. Melissa finds the best deals on vintage wares and she buys a lot. SHe has antique mall booths and online stores to keep stocked. Most recently she went to a box lot auction where she won 17 boxes of goodies and 4 "good old quilts" for a mere $20. She hit the jackpot because those boxes held lots of vintage treasures. Check out her latest haul at March So Far. Wowzer!

Rita at Panoply shared the absolutely darling -- or should I say dah-ling-- Breakfast at Tiffany's Themed Bridal Shower she co-hosted for her niece. As you might imagine from Rita's previous posts, every detail was covered from framed Audrey Hepburn photos and quotes to adorable Holly Golightly-inspired sleep masks for the wedding party. Fortunately her post included this photo collage, because I was having a time choosing just one to share! Drop by and be prepared to be delighted!

I think I'm coming around to the Mid-century Modern way of thinking, especially after seeing the handsome MID CENTURY MOD Dresser Makeover MCM by Karin at Art Is Beauty. It's absolute perfection -- almost glamorous, and most certainly a showpiece.
