::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 HomeZada Giveaway!

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

~How to Take Amazing Photos of Yourself via Domestic Fashionista

~How to Flip Images for Transfer via The Shabby Chic Cottage

~Adding Color to a Neutral Room via On Sutton Place

~Buffet Entertainment Center via A Diamond in the Stuff


~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?


This is the last weekend before 1st grade starts for Natalie on Tuesday. (sniff sniff) She has a taekwondo birthday party to attend tomorrow, so I am praying she doesn't come home with the skills to beat us all up. As for me, I have book club tonight (holla!)...so looking forward to some girl time. Hoping I can convince T to help me with some DIY stuff this weekend too!

    First of all thank you for hosting! I'm all linked up. Second thank you for the feature. I'm not sure what I did to deserve it but I am truly grateful. Blogging is an up and down kind of thing. Lately I have been more down than up but seeing your feature made my day...and I really mean that. Have a wonderful weekend ~ Ann

    Thank you so much for hosting! I hope you enjoy what I've shared... A world that's a little different- a world where the farmer is the celebrity...

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! :)
