::Weekend Bloggy Reading:: Link Up!

Welcome to Weekend Bloggy Reading. I hope you'll link up your best post of the week today, and maybe leave me some comment love!

All kinds of posts are welcome--recipes, crafts, funny stories, home decor, etc.; but please do not link to Etsy shops, businesses, items for sale, etc. (I have a Sponsors section, if you'd like to Advertise with me.)

Here are a few of my faves from this week:


 
sources listed below



~Ann Marie took a couple of Planters from the trash heap and made them beautiful again!

~Are you Blind to Your House? Visit Julia to see what I mean.

~Great How-To on Sealing Granite from Dana.

~Celebrate Father's Day in style with Amanda's Free Father's Day Printables.

~Check out Heather's creative Fabric Covered Window Cornice!

~And me? This week featured:


Time to link up your best post of the week (please take the time to include a link-back or my party button and visit some of the other participants!)

Here's the button code if you'd prefer to use that rather than a link-back:
Weekend Bloggy Reading








Party is open until 10 pm (ET) on Sunday night.

Remember that blog parties work best when bloggers participate, so if you have a chance to visit a few of the other links, you might find a new friend or two!

We don't have any big plans this weekend. I have some cleaning to do before a friend comes over on Saturday night. We have some craft planning to work on for our VBS class at the end of the month. I'm crossing my fingers that our little garden might have a green bell pepper or two for me soon!

What are you up to this weekend?

I'll be back tomorrow with some highlights from Weekend Bloggy Reading!

    Thanks for hosting!

    After reading about your green pepper, I looked more carefully at my plants and noticed that I've got several ready to pick.

    Have fun with your bible school craft planning. I still remember things that I made in bible school!

    We're having company over on Sunday....which means we must frantically clean the house and finish about 8,201 projects so that our house doesn't look like a tornado just blew through. :)

    Have a good weekend!

I love to hear your feedback! Please feel free to leave comments...just don't send me spam asking me to buy stuff off your website! I've got three kids and no money to purchase your magic weight-loss pill or bust enhancement, or whatever else you might be selling. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! :)
