In Heather's words....
"September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month. One of the things the kids look forward to most is a cool band-aid after they give blood. Gretchen (Alyssa's Mom) is doing a band-aid drive because there is often a shortage of cool band-aids at Hopkins. The tears after a blood draw because my girl couldn't get a princess bandaid - heart breaking. As a tribute to Cora, Alyssa and all our cancer friends, we will be collecting band aids at Cora's carnival. These bandaids will go straight to Hopkins. So, no presents just boxes of bandaids. "
If you would be so inclined to donate any fun bandaids for this worthy cause, the Bike Doctor in Linthicum, MD is a drop off point. You can drop them off there if you are local, or mail them to....

Thank you so much for your consideration for this cause. It's amazing what something as simple as a happy bandaid can do for a child.
Now let's check out some of my favorites from this week's link party!
How amazing is this cabinet from A Little Bit O Shizzle. Awesome. Fo shizzle.
Classy Clutter took my breath away with this gorgeous coral piece.... and paired with that striped wall it's just perfection!
I love these richly elegant chairs from Sophia's! Kristen is always churning out beautiful projects!
And how gorgeous are these chunky chairs from Start at Home? I love the soft cottagey colors!
Keeping up with the Jones' completely outdid the Jones' with this gorgeous buffet! They applied beautiful veneer and how about beautiful bold color!
And how about this nautical glam compass table from Nellie Bellie? So fun! Nautical glam is the new up and coming style, you know.
That's it folks! Have a great weekend... live it up! Oh, and in other news, my leg is now staple free and already feels 10 times better! My friend who has been helping me told me that my body did not like the staples.... she referred to some of them as "naughty" where my skin swelled around the staple. What I had thought was pain from the cut was actually pain from the staples. I am so happy they are all out now! I still need to be careful and take it easy a few more days, but oh, it just feels so good NOT to have them in right now! Happy, happy weekend!

Finding great band aids became a top priority today ... to think that such a small item can make such a huge difference and I never even knew it, thanks for sharing. Hope Emmy enjoys her soccer experience.

Those are some fantastic features! Your parties are always so inspiring. I'm glad you got some staples out!
What a wonderful collection of features! I am in love with those chairs, definitely heading over to check those out. Good for you, truly, to open your blog up for donations for the bandaids. Truly, it does not take much to bring joy to a small child, and what an important thing to have plenty of for children suffering with cancer. Getting my box out next week. -K
gah!! tons of awesome features! love those chairs from Sophia's and that kitchen...gorge-ous!
Those upholstered chairs are just the kind of inspiration I'm looking for these days. Oh, and thanks for sending me the link to Ali's striped chair. Loved it!
So glad your leg is better! Love the features, especially that Nelly Belly and her gorgeous gold table! So happy for Cora, thanks for sharing with us!
Thank you so much for the feature, my daughter really loves her new dresser. I didn't know it was called a lingerie chest. That would explain the old nude coloured bra that I found stuck at the bottom when I took it apart to be painted. Kind of gross, but funny too. Thanks again.
Love those kitchen chairs! What fun colors!
Thank you thank you thank you for Featuring my table!!!!!
What a great round-up! I'm dying over those chairs!
Cassie, thank you so much for featuring my vintage stereo cabinet! I am SO far behind on reading posts! My goal is to catch up today since I've been behind all summer long. Have a GREAT week, Shelly
