Happiness Is Homemade Party

Welcome to the Happiness is Homemade Party

We are excited about a new year of sharing, linking, reading, pinning and inspiration.  I am not sure where the time goes, honestly, it is true Time flies faster the older you get. It seems as though my time is in warp speed. Just keeping it real!

Truth be told I was expecting a full Super Bowl spread for you but it seemed everyone has skipped straight to Valentine's Day, so it is a heartfelt Happiness if Homemade this week ( Big pun once you see my first feature)

Handmade Felt Heart Brooch.

Pillar Box Blue captured my eye with her Handmade Felt Heart Brooch. This is a quick and easy fun Valentine’s craft to make a lovely heart-shaped handmade felt brooch from the smallest of felt scraps. big-heart-broach-on-white-s

Handmade Valentine Wreath

Next up this Handmade Valentine Wreath just stopped me scrolling. Comfort Spring just could not let the home stay sparse after the Holiday Season. I wanted something pretty on the front door.  On Sunday, I started to work with a grapevine wreath and flowers.   I used a grapevine wreath because it’s so easy to attach additional elements to the wreath with minimal wire and glue.  I know it’s only January 5th, but I need something bright and cheerful. diy-valentine-wreath

Valentines Bath Bombs.

Bath bombs, something that I have never tried but after reading this post from Eccentricities by JVG I think I might want to try.  A beautiful gift for Valentines Day, Valentines Bath Bombs. Bath bombs are great for a bath to add some moisturizing oils and enjoy a relaxing bath.  These Valentine’s Days bath bombs can be a fun project to work with kids as well.

Valentine's Spritz Cookies

Cookies are the next order of the day. And spotting these beautiful Valentine's Spritz Cookies have me pre planning so V-Day Treats. Flour on My Face has me convinced. Spritz cookies are great to make for Valentine's Day. The heart-shaped cookies are a perfect way to show your sweetheart how much you love them on this special day.  Spritz cookies are actually a type of German Christmas cookie made of flour, butter, sugar and eggs called Spritzgeback. The word spritz originated from the German word, “spritzen,” which means “to squirt” in English.  There you have it, a bit of education along with your cookies.  german spritz valentines cookies on a plate

Bonus Feature because I have to

Can it be a Feature Post from A Labour of Life without a Tablescape? Well sadly this week I didn't have a Valentine's table to share. This week something really cool and different. A Cat Quilling Valentine's Card.  Check out the stunning Valentine's Day Card from Confessions of an Overworked Mom.   cat quilled card

Thursday Favorite Things Party

Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things Party

Thursday Favorite Things. Share NOW. #linkyparty. #TFT #eclecticredbarn

Happy Thursday! . Well, January is almost half over, can you believe it. I feel like I just took down Christmas decorations. 
Oh well, I have been doing a little sorting. It all started when I was trying to find some vintage lace for some sachets I made for my sister. You know how it is, you look for one thing and end up with a dozen other things. That was me. 

I found a few pictures that I had not hung up and a frame that I was looking for. I also found a couple of felt hearts that I worked on last year. I decided to send them to my sister for her birthday coming up. Maybe make a few for myself. 

I didn't mean to start cleaning out but sometimes it just happens. Are you doing any cleaning or sorting? 

I Hope you enjoy all of the inspiration you find at the party. We have the best bloggers and they are all so creative. Hope you like the features!

Many of my features come from you my commenters. Don't forget to leave your Linkup Number or Post Title so I can find you and you could become one of my featured commenters next week.

You're The Star - Creative Feature Week

Welcome to You're The Star -  Creative Feature Week

Welcome to Monday Morning! I am so delighted that you are here. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Mine was very nice even though it was quite cool. I know that those of you in the north are having much cooler weather than here in central Florida but it was cold for us. Some places even had frost last night, but fortunately, we did not, but I covered my plants just in case. I have been in Florida too long - my blood has thin. lol!

Are you having warm weather or cool temps? Have a great week!
