::Weekend Bloggy Reading:: Link Up!

Welcome to my Weekend Bloggy Reading link party. I hope you'll link up your best post of the week today, and maybe leave me some comment love. Please be sure to read my guidelines before you add a link. *Don't forget to enter this week's $50 AmEx Gift Card Giveaway from Apartment Guide!

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

~Cozy Boy's Nursery via Twenty Three Oh One

~How to Clean and Revamp Wicker Furniture via Living on the Bliss

~How to Etch a Glass Vase via Tidy Mom

~Paper Bag Flower Lights via The Shabby Creek Cottage


~And Me? This week featured:

    Time to link up your best post of the week!


    Rules:
    • Please link back to me within your post. I will not feature your link if you don't link back to me in your post.*
    • No items for sale, shops, link parties, giveaways, etc. and please don't link up the same post week after week. 
    • Remember this party is for your best post of the week. Don't link up 10 posts...that's really not in the spirit of this party.
    • Visit some of the other links--that's how a good blog party works--participation!
    *A text link-back (ex- Linking to Serenity Now) is fantastic, but here's the button code if you'd prefer to use that rather than a text link-back:
    Weekend Bloggy Reading







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

    What are you up to this weekend?


    I'm taking advantage of Virginia's tax-free weekend today and picking up some school supplies and outfits for the girls. T and I have our 11th wedding anniversary tomorrow--can hardly believe it!

      I didn't realize that this weekend is the tax free one. I need a few things for my classroom and should make a shopping trip.

      Happy 11th Anniversary! I hope you get a nice treat.

      Thanks for hosting!

      Hey girl! Thank you so much for hosting this party. It's so nice to have a place to link what I think is my best post--without it having to fit into any particular category! This party is fun to join and fun to browse--just right!

      Hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend!

      Hello Amanda: Thank you for hosting the link party today. I enjoyed the project you featured--those paper bag lights are especially charming. I went back late last night and read many of your posts in the blogging resources section, and just wanted to say again thank you for the blogging help that you offer--I appreciated it very much, and learned from it. This weekend is supposed to be hot here, unusual for the Pacific Northwest this year, so we'll bbq and just enjoy it! Have a great 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! :)
