We’re at the end of another month and I’m not excited that summer is nearing an end and the kids will head back to school in August {and my oldest will go to college}.  I’m going to cling to these final few weeks, make the most of them, and try to accomplish all the things on my list that haven’t been touched yet {wink}!  In the meantime, let’s take a peek at all the fun that happened at Dukes and Duchesses this month!  The posts linked below are the projects you read and pinned the most.  Click on the links to see the full details for each post and be sure to pin your favorites!
