::Weekend Bloggy Reading:: Link Up!

Welcome to my Weekend Bloggy Reading link party. I hope you'll link up your best post of the week today, and maybe leave some comment love on the awesome guest posts that were posted here this week. Please be sure to read my guidelines before you add a link.

All kinds of posts are welcome--recipes, crafts, funny stories, home decor, etc.; but please do not link to Etsy shops, businesses, items for sale, etc. (I have a Sponsors section, if you'd like to Advertise with me.)

Here are a few of my faves from this week:


sources listed below

~DIY Live Edge Table  via The Hunted Interior

~Tangelo-Blueberry Scones via Inside My Present

~Sharpie French Label Towel via Setting for Four

~Easy Cake Decorating Idea via In My Own Style

~And Me? This week featured:

    Time to link up your best post of the week!



    Rules:
    • Please link back to me within your post. I will not feature your link if you don't link back to me.*
    • No items for sale, shops, etc. and please don't link up the same post week after week. 
    • Remember this party is for your best post of the week. Don't link up 10 posts...that's really not in the spirit of this party.
    • Visit some of the other links--that's how a good blog party works--participation!
    *A text link-back (ex- Linking to Serenity Now) is fantastic, but here's the button code if you'd prefer to use that rather than a text link-back:
    Weekend Bloggy Reading







    Party is open until 10 pm (ET) on Sunday night.

    What are you up to this weekend?

    I've got some post-vacay laundry to do. No plans for Mother's Day, but hoping some people I live with will pull out a surprise or something. {wink}

    Thanks for hosting, Amanda! I enjoyed following your Disney trip on instagram this week...

    I linked up my daughter's dresser re-do. It is my first furniture makeover which is kind of funny because I'm a home blogger. Two years and zero furniture overhauls so it was time. :)

    Good Morning Amanda -

    Thanks for featuring the cake topper I made. XO ! Love the Hunted Interiors table - that is amazing. I haven't eaten my breakfast yet and now all I want is one of those blueberry scones - yum-O.

    Hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend.

    My best- Diane

    Hey girl! Nice to have you back in town--although you certainly do an amazing job of having your blog "covered" even when you're out of town! You're the best example of an organized, efficient blogger; I wish I could be more like you.

    I'm linking up a post I wrote earlier this week--not a project or an inspirational post, but something I really wanted to say. I actually thought about you when I wrote it. I remember once you were stressing about whether you'd have opportunities to work with another blogger, and as it turned out you got the opportunity to work with one of the biggest AND nicest bloggers in the whole blogging world!

    I appreciate the way you work hard to make Serenity Now a really first-rate blog. I think you show respect for others and respect for yourself, and you don't do that by tearing anyone down but rather by building everyone up. Thank you.
