Tickled Pink No. 147



Welcome to Tickled Pink! 
I am so on the count down...5 days of school - that is it! 
And then I have a first grader and a seventh grader!
I was pretty absent last week around...
there is lots happening and I have to put all of my focus on the real world around me...
but soon all will be well (fingers crossed!).
I do have to tell you though I am enjoying my "time off" from the computer! 
 __________________________________________
I did share one of my favorite cheap and easy activities for the kids during the summer...How to Build a Cardboard Bride/Tunnel/Whatever you want!


It was crazy hair day and I had fun playing with that Hair DIY Hair Chalk again!

I'd also love for you to consider getting involved in a Simple Service Project like the one I did with my son to help end childhood hunger in the summer. This is one issue that tugs at my heart strings and if we all tried to do a little something it could really help some kids!
 Did you know only 1 out of 6 children who receive free or reduced-price meals during the school year continue to receive meals during the summer months. Low-income families with children face even more challenges during the summer when they stretch their food budget to provide additional meals for their children." quoted from Odwalla Hunger in the Summer
I urge you to rally, create a food drive, and help!

Now for the really good stuff...

this week our SPOTLIGHT SELECTOR IS
Ruth from Farmgirl in My Heart
(I will be selecting the features next week...or Tickled Pink might just take a week off)
I am a long time crafted, DIY'er, and homeschooling mom. My days are chock full of projects, school books, and even some hands on science dissections. It's never a dull moment in our house. I love to crochet, need to get better with knitting, and try my hand at sewing. Paint is my go to for turning things from drab to fab. And when I finally sit down, it's always with a good book and strong coffee. 

Now let's take a look at some of Ruth's projects!
A bureau that is better after
An upcycled Frame Tray
Sweet baby girl crocheted hat
Boy's room remodel
 
Go on over and say hi to Ruth!
