Five Links Friday #3

Friday finally! This means I only have one more day of work this week and most of you are off. YAY! Hopefully it'll be a nice weekend with no rain *fingers crossed*. I won't get to go outside too much and enjoy it becuase that sickness I was feeling last week ended up being sinuses. Raleigh and I got attacked by the allergy monster this week and we definitely lost the fight. After almost a week of puffy eyes, pressure headaches, and stuffy/runny noses (it's ridiculous you can have both at the same time! WHY?!) we are finally finding a little relief thanks to medicine.

This week's list is crazy compilation.

1. Beachy Summer Mantel - Tatortots & Jello

I love this color scheme for summer. It's so bright and cheerful. I already started doing yellow and mint green in my living room, but this is pretty close. I like the door in such a bright color.

2. DIY Painted Dresser - Cape 27

The before and after on this dresser is AH-mazing. I wish I could do something like this. I have to get the guts to just do it one day. 

3. Faux Butcherblock Countertop - Breakfast 4 Dinner

This is the tutorial that I will be doing this weekend. My counter is that old white laminate…bleh. Well I was dealing with it, but after Easter a mysterious stain appeared on it and for the life of me I  can NOT get it out! So I am just going to get this done and over with. I won't do it this dark though. I'll probably go with the Special Walnut that I've been in love with recently. Wish me luck. 

4. Strawberry Kiwi Margaritas - Sally's Baking Addiction

Don't think I forgot about Cinco De Mayo! I am a strawberry kiwi lover so I had to throw this in here. I love using colorful straws too. Break out the tequila!

5. Seven Layer Dip - Real Mom Kitchen

I am a sucker for these! I love a good 7 layer dip. The only difference is this has some ranch in it which I have never tried. I also am a little stingy…I like to make my guacamole from scratch. ;)

Hope yal enjoy the weekend and Cinco De Mayo on Monday.
