It’s another round of BOTB, this time I’m bringing you a few of my favorite finds from around blog land, plus a bunch spotted by another contributor.  Say hello to Abi from Gadding Gal!  She’s a DIY and travel loving gal after my own heart, and I’m so happy to bring Abi on board as a scout for bringing you the best of what’s going on in the blogosphere this past week.  Together, we compiled this list for you.  Let’s get started!

Greetings and happy weekend!  I am trying out a fun new weekend series called “Best of the Blogosphere” or “BOTB” for short.  I better be careful not to mistype that ‘T’ !  This series will be a roundup of the best of home improvement and decorating that we see in blog land. 

When I say ‘we’ I mean I’m in cahoots with some new Contributive Writers recently brought on board.  Together with my accomplices, we will be scouring the internet, looking for the most inspiring and original creations!  We live for it, we love it, we can’t get enough of it.  And we will be bringing it to you!  Let’s kick if off shall we?

We’re loving this simple sew tutorial for pillow shams over at Jilly & Mia.
