Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop

Welcome to Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Weekend (those in the U.S.) Ours was nice, a little quiet. Our daughter went to Vermont to spend some time with her brother and family. The in-laws came over for a cook out. 

Hubby and I did some yard work and worked on some projects. We are working on repairing an old window. Hope to show you soon.

Have a great week!

A Special Clothes Pin Holder

A Special Clothes Pin Holder

I know that many of you don't hang out your clothes. In fact, of the four sisters, only myself and my youngest sister do. My other two sisters never have. My Mom always did and so did my grandmother. I guess we inherited it from them.

I think there is nothing better than crawling into bed  with sheets that have been hung outside to dry. Even hubby, ohhs and ahhs at the scent and feel of them.

So when I was in Pittsburgh last month, my sister said her clothes pin bag had fallen apart. I thought I would make her something special.

Happiness Is Homemade Party

Welcome to Happiness Is Homemade Party

Welcome back to Happiness is Homemade! I hope you are having a wonderful Memorial Weekend. We had some well needed rain yesterday. The veggies and flowers loved it. We are having some family for dinner on Sunday and others on Monday. 

Enjoy your weekend and let us remember all of our men and women who gave their lives to depend our country. 


Favorite Features

First I'd like to share this week's features! Thank you to all of you bloggers who share all the wonderful posts we get to read each week!

Janet from A Life of Balance shared a tutorial for this simple patriotic wreath. It seems very easy and quick to put together. She used her Cricut to cut the stars from balsa wood. I haven't tried that yet, but I can't wait to! This wreath is perfect way to greet your guests as you kick off the summer with your patriotic barbeque!

Next Joy from Artful Homemaking brings us a post on deep cleaning your home. She has some great tips and ideas. In her post, Joy shares free printable checklists for when you get down and dirty in your house!

Claire from Pillar Box Blue shared this post on all of the things you can make with old blue jeans.  These ideas look like so much fun. In the article, she tells us exactly how to deconstruct jeans depending on what projects you'd like to make. Some of these are perfect projects to keep your teens busy this summer. They may even be able to sell a few!

This wood tray was shared with us from Tiffany at Tee Diddly Dee. Can you believe this beautiful tray is a DIY?! I thought it was going to be an upcycle (love those too!) or a vignette tutorial, but she hand made this. In the post she shares how to make it, step by step. Since you make it yourself, you can customize it for your home. You could change the size, color, or handles, yet use the same tutorial. I think it's beautiful and would fit perfectly into my house in a medium colored wood stain.

Finally we have Penny's she shed from Penny's Vintage Home. I am in love with the look of this trailer turned she-shed! It has turned out absolutely beautiful. Mr. H cut an old headboard in half, which is what you see on either side of the jut-out. Who would've thought it would look so cute. She repainted the jut-out in light grey with the pink door, and that makes the shed. I love those two colors together. The sunflower theme that runs across the shed is just perfect. If there's A/C, I could just move in!

Now it's time for the link party!

Thursday Favorite Things Party

Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things Party

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

Happy Thursday!  We are finally on a camping trip. It has been two years since our last trip. In 2019 we moved into our new home so we did not go camping and then covid hit. I forgot a few things since it had been so long since we went camping. I did bring enough food however. Thanks what counts!

It is really hot here but there is a slight breeze. Yesterday they launched a rocket for the space center. We sat near the water and watched it go up. It was so cool. What a sight. My first rocket launch.

The dogs had a little bit of time adjusting to being in the motorhome again but are getting used to it. We have several more trips planned so they will be adjusted soon. 

What's the news with you? Hope all is well.
