Welcome to our 3rd “Home is Where the Heart is” Link it up party!

We hope everyone is having a wonderful week!

Our top 11 features -

Knife Block Vase

With a toddler in the house who can open doors and drawers we know where Amber is coming from when she says she had to hide them from her toddler. She made this very creative knife block vase and we think it’s pretty neat!

 

 

 

Where I love to hang out!

Look at “One More Time’s” lovely back yard! She did a fabulous job and we’d love to come hang out in her back yard any day!

 

 

Harvesting Potatoes

Lisa Lynn takes us on a little adventure and she shares with us her harvesting of potatoes! Look she even had a little help!

 

 

OctoApple ~ Fun Time Snack

Isn’t this the cutest snack ever?! Barbara and her two children Grace and Michael are an inspiration to get creative with our summer snacks!

 

 

Train Case Transformation

Ginny gives us her amazing transformation of a train case, this is a fun tutorial you won’t want to miss!

 

 

Garden Plant Markers

Amanda shares with us how she made these super cute garden markers for her community garden!

 

New Take on an Old Fave

Leah is too cool! She took a dress, cut it up and made a “new” top out of it! Love it!

 

Paint Stir Hanging Lamp

Kimberly caught our eye again with this Paint Stir Hanging Lamp! Check it out!

 

All Fruit “Cake”

Jessi claims she just winged it and created this Fruit Cake! In our eyes it turned out pretty darn sweet!

 

Finally! Bathroom Makeover Reveal

Nif teased us with her bathroom posts for a few days but when the reveal finally came it was worth it! It turned out lovely and I’m in love the new sink!

 

Homemade Hardshell Chocolate Sauce

Heidi sweetened us up with her Homemade Hardshell Chocolate Sauce – 3 simple ingredients and the best part? You know what’s in it! ;) That is worth a whole lot to us!
