<p>I missed posting my Friday Faves this week, so I&#8217;m having a makeup day on Sunday. Here are bits and pieces that caught my eye. Did you spot something fabulous? Feel free to share in the comments section.</p>
<p>This is a great <a href="http://www.hugamonkey.com/blog/baby-gear-recall-are-your-baby-products-safe">infographic</a> showcasing baby product recalls in 2009-2010. I usually keep up with this stuff, but apparently, there were a bunch I had missed. Worth taking a look at! </p>
<p>Want to hang a portrait, kids art or anything else on your wall in a few minutes? These <a href="http://www.portraitallure.com/2010/04/how-to-hang-a-portrait-in-minutes/">velcro hangers</a> offer an easy solution. I used them to hang a mirror in our playroom. </p>
<p>The folks in Europe know what busy (and hungry) mamas need. Who wouldn&#8217;t love <a href="http://springwise.com/lifestyle_leisure/percyandreed/">breakfast and a  haircut</a>. </p>
<p>I am in love (and in awe) of this <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/22/garden/22garage.html">tiny living space</a>. I&#8217;m fascinated by the art of living simply. This mini abode wouldn&#8217;t be a fit for our family, but this small package is big on inspiration. </p>
<p>Speaking of compact living, this <a href="http://unclutterer.com/2010/04/26/video-incredibly-efficient-efficiency">video is amazing</a>. Check out the architect that made 23 rooms out of one in his 344-square-foot efficiency.</p>
<p>One day, we&#8217;ll have free-range chickens. These are <a href="http://makingitlovely.com/2010/04/27/cooped-up/">styling chicken coops</a> to house them in!</p>
<p>If I had an ounce of sewing talent, I&#8217;d be tempted to whip up this <a href="http://elizabethkartchner.blogspot.com/2010/04/diy-fabric-ruffle-tee.html">feminine and funky DIY ruffle tee</a>. Wonder if there&#8217;s a maternity pattern?</p>

<p>It&#8217;s been awhile since I posted a Friday Favorites list &#8212; so here you have it. A handful of loveliness you shouldn&#8217;t miss:</p>
<p>Check out the <a href="http://crepesofwrath.net/2010/04/05/homemade-pop-tarts/">DIY Pop Tarts</a> from Crepes of Wrath. Saw these on a friend&#8217;s blog and can&#8217;t wait to try them. Brings me back to my childhood (only healthier!).</p>
<p>Just in time for summer, these homemade <a href="http://www.twigandthistle.com/blog/2010/03/easter-ice-cream-sadwiches/">ice cream sandwiches</a> from Twig &#038; Thistle make my tastebuds to a happy dance.</p>
<p>My beautiful friend and fellow photographer <a href="http://www.staceywoodsphoto.com/ ">Stacey Woods</a> offers tips on creating art <a href="http://thecreativemama.com/an-art-gallery-of-your-very-own/">gallery displays</a> in your home on the Creative Mama. Get your photos out of boxes and on display where they belong.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m already in love with <a href="http://shopterrain.com/">Terrain</a>, a genius idea + outdoor living shop by the makers of Anthropologie.</p>
<p>These inventive <a href="http://www.ohdeedoh.com/ohdeedoh/meal-time/snack-holders-for-toddlersroundup-111044">snack containers for toddlers</a> will keep both your little people and your floors happy.</p>
<p>Have a great weekend</p>
<p>xoxoxo<br />
