Happiness Is Homemade Party

Welcome to Happiness is Homemade! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend so far.  Everyone shared wonderful home decor, crafts and recipes last week, but only 5 are featured each week. Let's end the suspense and get to the features and party!

THIS WEEK'S FEATURES!various handmade crafts

Jenna, from The Painted Apron, upcycled a plastic canister by crafting it in the most amazing way just by using paper and paint. What a gorgeous color combination! She changed her canister from, as she says, "blah to awe!"

Debbee, from Debbees Buzz, hand painted champagne flutes with tropical birds for a wedding gift. I'm sure her gift recipient was thrilled with her artistic talent. Follow her tutorial to see how easily you can hand paint your own glasses!

Last week, Haekelfieber-Austria shared her crocheted chili peppers with us from her "Big Food Series." These colorful crocheted veggies are absolutely adorable! Follow her series posts as she shares the patterns to make these cuties.

Marsha, from The Little Yellow Corner Store, showed us her collection of seasonal porch decor. Her "bees and sunflowers" themed decor she uses for spring really caught my eye. I'm in love with her handmade sunflower pillow!

Ann, from The Apple Street Cottage, has the perfect craft for us to make for the special women in our lives for Mother's Day ~ Homemade Lavender Soap. I can smell the lavender by just looking at her photo, and check out that beautiful gift presentation!

Happy Sunday and welcome to the Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #417.  I am so delighted you stopped by the party.  

I have been busy working on a small dresser that I am stripping.  It was supposed to be a simple project that has turned into a big project. It is coming along however. The weather has been so nice, that I don't care about all the work, since I can be outdoors. 

I hope your weekend has been good and you have a wonderful week ahead.

Happy Sunday and welcome to the Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #416.  I hope your weekend has been wonderful. Ours has been really nice. 

We had a family cookout on Saturday. We have not had one in months so it was nice to all be together and the weather was beautiful. We ate outside by the pool and talked and talked until late. Of course, we had a lovely dessert to end the day. 

I hope you have a lovely Sunday.

I may not be the neatest or tidiest but I do LOVE making space and getting rid of unnecessary items in my home.  To help combat that, there are certain items I refuse to buy anymore and as it turns out, a few of those items made it to this list of 12 Things I Don't Buy



*BONUS FEATURE*



I do bake but am always looking for quick recipes that use ingredients I have in my pantry.  I always having pudding, so this recipe for Dark Chocolate Mocha Pudding Cookies sounds so delicious and perfect to make.

Welcome to Wonderful Wednesday

Valentine's Day is coming up and I'm sure many of our participating bloggers will have TONS of ideas for recipes, decorations and other fun projects.  We will probably have a quiet dinner at home. We may go out on another night to celebrate since it is always so crowded on Valentine's Day.

Do you have any special plans for Valentine's? Do you go out to dinner or stay home. How are you going to celebrate?

Happiness Is Homemade Party

Welcome to the Happiness is Homemade Party

Can you believe that January is almost over? It has been a crazy month for weather, especially the last couple of weeks, snow, ice and more snow.  It has even affected Florida with cool weather and some frost over night. 

I hope you are warm and safe from all of the cold weather. 

With Valentine's Day only a few weeks away, we have chosen some wonderful Valentine ideas. I hope you find some inspiration in the features and/or among the many posts within the party.

A Tablescape

I have been thinking hearts and flowers, maybe because Valentine's Day is coming. Actually it was the heart plate that caught me. Today the bright red and pink hearts caught my eye, A Valentines table. Inspiration for the gal who loves to celebrate love. Anne's Inspired love really nailed this one.

Valentine’s Sgar Scrub

I love a good sugar scrub but don’t love all the extras that are in some commercially prepared ones. Plus they can be expensive. This easy DIY sugar scrub from Everyday Savvy requires just a few ingredients and can be infused with your favorite essential oils. This sugar scrub makes a great DIY gift for Valentine’s day or any holiday.

A Tablescape

I have found my grove and my feature routine so lets start with a tablescape. And this weeks feature caught my eye probably because I have been thinking hearts and flowers.Actually it was the napkin fold that caught me. What a creative heart napkin. Today thebright red heart caught my eye, A Rose Valentines table. Inspiration for the gal who loves to celebrate love. Debbee's Buzz really nailed this one.

A Tasty Mocktail, that's pretty too

Trying something new this week, check out this yummy looking mocktail from Everyday Savvy. This mocktail recipe is simple, easy to follow, and has just a few ingredients. Simply Juice Mixed Berry is a great base for this mocktail recipe. Great for all ages and truth be told I am thinking it aso would make a great cocktail for me with a spalsh of rum or vodka.

Valentine's Cocoa Bombs

These easy Valentine’s Cocoa Bombs are a fun way to celebrate Valentine’s Day. The cocoa bombs melt in hot water or milk and will burst into a hot chocolate in seconds! Really fun to watch. Raquel from Organized Island really caught my eye with this version of a Hot Chcolate bomb, and quite possibly has inspired me t try my hand.

DIY Lip Gloss 

And along the crafty line how about this lip smacking lipgloss. Crazy thing it is made from Kool-aid and coconut oil, simple and easy. Plus perfect for a day of hearts to keep those lips smooth. The Socialite's Closet has a hit with this DIY.

Happiness Is Homemade Party

Welcome to Happiness Is Homemade Party

Happy Sunday! I am writing this early so I am not sure how Saturday and Sunday turn out, I am driving to Pittsburgh and of course they are expecting a major snow storm. I hope I can get there before it hits, but I do have lots of mountains to get over. Prayers would be nice. My Mom is not doing well so I need to be there. You may be wondering why I am driving in the winter, well, I have an antique desk that I am taking to my sister for her birthday. I have wanted to leave for a few weeks now, but of course I wait until there is to be snow. Maybe, it won't happen. 

If you are in the path of this storm, be safe.
