If you have been following me for any length of time, you know I like thrifting and vintage pieces. I decided to combine the two on my open shelves in our kitchen. I created my own Vintage Style Open Shelves with a few things by shopping my home.

After a few tries of moving and switching things around, I came up with something I am happy with.

April Highlights

Can you believe it is May? The birds are singing, the pool is warm, and the sun is finally shining. Even though I live in Las Vegas, the weather can be kinda crazy sometimes. It isn’t always hot like everyone thinks. We had rain all last week. And sometimes it even snows. But that is a topic for another day. Today I want to take you back in time to my April Highlights here on What Meegan Makes.

I am well over 700 posts on my blog now. That seems almost impossible to me. Some posts are excellent and others, well, let’s just say they could be much better.

I have been in the process of updating and revamping some of my older posts. Hopefully they will be a little more desirable and eye catching once I am done. Cross your fingers for me, okay?

Wow, Spring is here and March is gone. It is always great to share my monthly blog posts with you. Today I am elated to share my March Blog Highlights with you.

Let’s start with one of my favorite blog posts-ever.

How To Host an Afternoon Tea Party

I had a few friends over for an Afternoon tea filled with scones, Devonshire cream, finger sandwiches and of course, tea.

Using tulips and brown paper is a great way to make a Spring Hostess gift for any occasion.

How To Make a Tea Post Centerpiece was really fun and SUPER easy.

Create a festive look for any cupcake by making your own toppers from tooth picks and scrapbook paper.

For a delicious breakfast lunch or dinner make my recipe for: Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Homemade Biscuits and Bacon Gravy, Comfort food to the max!

I always like a creative way to make crafts with book pages. For some Spring decorating, I made book page art with bird stencils. It looks so cute, doesn’t it?

Using beverage napkins I made a sweet banner. Don’t you LOVE these colors for Spring?

I just LOVE how my rustic naked cake turned out. I have a FULL tutorial with all my tips and tricks just for you right here.

I like using peat pots all year long for crafts. For a Spring look, I added yarn and glitter using Mod Podge. Another REALLY easy craft.

I have a few simple and creative ideas to decorate for a baby or bridal shower with baby’s breath and vintage jars.

After my friend delivered FOUR LARGE pallets to my house, I made my own SIMPLE Pallet Art.

To showcase my Grandma’s crystal salt and pepper shakers, I turned them into vases. Don’t they look amazing on my thrifted silver tray?

Whew, March was a busy month. And, I am so happy to share the March Blog Highlights all created by me.

Thanks so much for stopping by and letting me share what I LOVE to do.

Make it a lovely Spring day.

Hey everyone! How is your week going? Mine has been relatively quiet. I have been doing some Spring cleaning and trying get our home organized after Winter weather. AND, while I was Spring cleaning I found my Grandma’s crystal vintage salt and pepper shakers. Then it hit me-why don’t I make Vintage Salt and Pepper Shaker Vases!

Happy March! I am excited to be here today! I am excited because I want to share my highlights from February DIY, Recipes and Home Decor.

It was a fun month on my blog.

I shared more recipes than I have in a long time. I will also be sharing more on here more often. I had gotten away from my family recipes. And I realized that you will enjoy my recipes as much as I do. So I am looking forward to that.

Hey everyone! How are you doing? I am looking forward to Spring and warmer weather and pretty soft pastels. I am excited about my Vintage Styled Shelves because I am using Hubby’s grandma’s vintage glasses from the depression era.
