Happiness Is Homemade Party
Welcome to the Happiness is Homemade Party
Welcome dear friends. We are excited about a new year of sharing, linking, reading, Pinning and inspiration.
It was an interesting week, a lot of self reflection Bloggers sharing what they are working on and what their followers loved last year. It’s tough selecting only 4 posts to highlight, which is why I want to remind everyone, take a moment and search through. This is a space to get inspired and help each other out, it is more than dropping a link, this is supposed to be about community and connection.
This week's features:

Happy New Year and Happiness Is Homemade
Happy New Year and Happiness Is Homemade
Happy New Year Everyone, hard to believe another year has passed us by and 2023 is literally around the corner. There has been so many great features shared with us every week and I truly hope Y'all continue sharing into 2023.
Have a Happy New Year.
For those whose missed out last week's party, you can check it out here
New Years Features
Lets start with the obvious shall we, an amazing Tablescape. Decorative Inspirations has shared a creative and fun New Years Eve Table. I am in love with this concept and will be pinning this to my boards for future inspiration.
Declutter in Minutes
Next up is a perfect post for starting the New Year Fresh. Declutter in Minutes shares some great tips for actually Decluttering our Christmas Ornaments.
One way to reduce holiday stress is to declutter your holiday decorations while you’re on your way to decorating your home.
If you have difficulty deciding what decorations to let go of and want to know how to start decluttering, check out this guide to help you declutter your holiday decor easily.
Punch Tin Lantern
Starting 2023 with some sustainable inspiration. Upcycling and recycling are very important to me so I adore this Punch Tin Lantern idea from Sum of Their Stories. How pretty is this and it saves a can from the garbage so double win.
New Years Eve Treats
Rounding out this weeks features is some tasty treats from Hunny I'm Home. She is entertaining this year for the New Years Celebrations so that involves food obviously. When you’re hosting a NYE Party you have to have plenty of delicious recipes to serve your guests! Whether you’re celebrating at home or with your friends, you can’t go wrong with these adorable New Years Eve treats. Since they’re no bake snacks, they’re quick and easy to make. And when you add some gold and silver decorations on top, they’re the perfect way to celebrate the new year.
Special Feature
And y'all know how hard it is to limit our features because there are always so many awesome options. So I always have to give an additional shoutout to something that just captures my attention. '
So this week there were so many amazing recipes and I thought I should share a few but truth be told the holidays are coming to an end and the schedule from Organized Motherhood just kept claiming my attention. When and How to use a Cleaning Schedule just spoke to me this week. (food will be shared next week I promise)

Easy Halloween Treat and Happiness Is Homemade
Easy Halloween Treat and Happiness Is Homemade
Happy Almost Halloween. What a fun month and we are more than ready Halloween. This week a little reflection on the fact it is 451 parties, holy moly. Interesting fact, when this link up first started, they had guest hosts selected from among those who linked up.
I was not one of the original hosts but rather a "linkee" who got selected several months in a row to guest hots. That was my first experience with Blog parties. Fast forward and here I am years later still loving it.
So shameless plug, we are a great bunch to party with if you want to join our little hosting group.
If you are looking for an easy treat for Halloween, check out these ghost treats.

Celebration of Fall
This week, I really wanted to return back to all things Fall, but y'all are killing me with all the fun Halloween crafts and ideas. Such great Halloween food, sips, and fun.
First up is the cutest Spooky Halloween Tablescape from The Painted Apron. This fun table was titled Slightly Spooky but I think its is more a whimsical fun Halloween table. Plus she led me to a fun tablescape bloghop. How cool is that.
Halloween Wreath
Next up from The House on Silverado is A Halloween Wreath. This easy DIY method for how to make a Halloween deco mesh wreath is a fun Halloween craft and Halloween decor all at the same time!
Dinner with Mummies
How fun is this snack for Halloween. The Magical Ingredients is sharing Samosa Mummies. These are delicious samosa mummies that are appetizers for Halloween parties. These can be made easily using ready to use crescent roll dough. ( She also shared Zombie Intestines that look so fun as well)
.
Cookie Heaven
And to wrap up the week, how about these cute Halloween Pinwheel Cookies from Drug Store Divas. It’s all treats, no tricks when it comes to these Halloween Pinwheel Cookies.
These swirl-shaped Halloween cookies are stunning. They look just like store-bought cookies from a high-end bakery. But they’re not. These Halloween cookies made in your home kitchen … all from ingredients you already have at home.
Next week is Halloween with tables, crafts and DIY's all around. I can't wait to see what you share.

Post Ian and Happiness Is Homemade Party
Post Ian and Happiness Is Homemade Party
Ian has left Florida and has delivered such destruction. We were very lucky, no damage to our house or our family homes. Our power went out Wednesday evening and it finally came back on tonight.
We had a lot of debris and branches in the yard. We filled up 30 garbage cans and then I stopped counting. I love having over an acre of land, but the last two days, I would have liked less land. After two days of racking and dumping, the yard is finally back to normal. I wish I could say the same for me. I have blisters on top of blisters and I am exhausted.
At least we have our home. I can't imagine all of those whose homes were destroyed. It was difficult to watch all of the devastation. It seemed like it was going to be rather quiet season for hurricanes. You just never know.
Happy October and can I say it please… I am so Happy I live in a World with Octobers. What a fun month, Fall has started, Canadian Thanksgiving and yes Halloween. And the start of Q4 for all the bloggers. OMG what a month. Welcome to Happiness is Homemade Ready For October.
This is my month, I love hosting for October,. All the other months my amazing co-hosts share their favs. This month, A Labour of Life gets to share her love of Fall, Canadian Thanksgiving and Halloween, for this Canadian it is an amazing time of year. Today, I celebrate Fall in all its glory. Muted Pumpkins, Rustic Decor and all the things to sip and savour. Come show us what you are working on.
