Our 600th Party on Happiness Is Homemade


Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #600




Welcome to the Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #600!


WHAT A MILESTONE THIS IS!!!

I'm Katie from Love My Messy Messy Mess and it is my absolute pleasure to host our #600 blog hop as my last party for the month of August.  

Looking back, I realized that I have been a hostess since 2015 - THAT IS 10 YEARS!  I didn't even realize how long I had been participating.  Not to mention I didn't even join at the very beginning of the party's creation, so this party has been going on for a LONG TIME!  It looks like I started with party #88 - holy cow!

We've had many incredible hostesses over the years and I am proud to say that both myself, Sinea from Ducks ‘n a Row and Linda of A Labour of Life are the longest standing original hostesses - thank you ladies for your time and care!  Beverly from Eclectic Red Barn has also been with us for quite a long time too, maybe at least 8 years, is that right Bev?  

We are so happy to have our two newest hostess' on board - Susan from The Bay To The Beach and Esme of Esme Salon - whose enthusiasm and dedication is bringing a fresh new life to our party!


Even though our hosts have changed over the years, one thing still remains the same, our dedication to you - our readers - to bring you new and exciting content every week from your favorite bloggers.  We hope you enjoy exploring our link party as much as we love hosting it for you!

This Week's Features

To involve all of our incredible hostess' for this monumental party, I've asked each to choose one feature to highlight this week.

Linda's Pick

DIY Stretch Velvet Acorns 


I'm pretty sure our resident Canadian blogger's favorite season is fall - am I right Linda???  She is so crafty and loves a good DIY, so I'm not surprised she picked this DIY Stretch Velvet Acorns tutorial for her feature.  Let us know if you make them!



Sinea's Pick


Chicken Walnut Stuffed Pumpkin




Not only do our hostess' organize each week's party but we contribute too!   Linda submitted this post for Chicken Walnut Stuffed Pumpkin and Sinea was all about it!  She especially loves the images Linda shared on her post - bravo!  This looks really tasty Linda, perfect for a single-mom's dinner!


Bev's Pick

Pine Cone Decor from Fall to Winter




Our hostess Bev is a HUGE DIY'er and lover of all things outdoors and country, so I'm not surprised she chose this post utilizing Pine Cone Decor from Fall to Winter for her feature.  I love using pinecones in my decor too, Bev!  I even have one hung in the house to help me tell if it's going to rain that day or not.


Katie's Pick (me!)






I love lemonade so much, it's one of my favorite summer time bevies.  Yes, yes I know summer is over BUT September is WNY where I live can still be quite warm!  So if you are looking to spice up your lemonade before it starts to get cold, try making this Electric Lemonade.  


Susan's Pick




As a newly single mom of three I am always looking for cheap and quick ways to decorate, and with Halloween being one of my FAVORITE holidays, I know that this post Susan chose will come in real handy - Budget Friendly DIY Ghost Decor.  You don't have to spend hours or a small fortunate to making things look festive!


Esme's Pick



This recipe looks so heart-warming and mouth-watering to me.  I know that soup season is upon us but I'm always down for a delicious chicken dish.  Esme chose this recipe for Apricot Chicken with Truffle Oil Mustard and I'm not going to lie - I'm adding truffle oil to next week's grocery list to try this one out!




THANK YOU LADIES FOR HOSTING WITH ME THIS WEEK AND HELPING SELECT THE FEATURES! 


I think I speak for all the hostess' when I say how happy we are to provide this space for content creators and readers to share and enjoy.  Please help us spread the word by sharing this party on your socials!

Happiness Is Homemade Party


Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #599







Welcome to the Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #599!

I'm Katie from Love My Messy Messy Mess and welcome to the party.  Big news - next week will be party #600!!!!!!!  That is absolutely NUTS!  How has this blog hop been able to keep going for that long?  Because of awesome bloggers like you who participate and keep sharing all of your latest and greatest.

Miss the party last week? Click here to check it out!





This Week's Features


I won't lie, I am a huge pumpkin pie fan, but sometimes that takes a little too much effort.  Enter the No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake Recipe - much quicker and easier to put together for a fall meal.  It's never to soon to start planning your autumn desserts!





Pina Colada Punch




However we STILL cannot get TOO far ahead of ourselves.  I mean come on - September is really still summer, or so I feel.  So let's enjoy what's left of it with this Pina Colada Punch.  Besides a margarita, a pina colada is my absolute favorite summer cocktail, but turning it into a punch takes it to a whole new level!




Boujee Fall Candle Hack



I am very much so in my candle era here at Starry Acres.  One of my nightly rituals is to make a yummy cup of tea and light a bunch of yummy candles to enhance my space not only with their luscious scent but with their beautiful light.  This tutorial for a Boujee Fall Candle Hack will help me enjoy my candles even more.  Or, how about these for Thanksgiving hostess gifts or Christmas gifts?









I planted sunflower seeds very late in my garden this year and a few of them are just to bloom.  I know my almost 4-year-old will be thrilled when they open!  This  Paper Plate Sunflower Craft will be so fun for her to make her own sunflower.  



BONUS FEATURE


I am a hot beverage drinker - coffee in the morning and tea in the evening.  I'm always on the hunt for new hot coffee/tea like bevies to try and I was fascinated by this post on How To Make Baobab Coffee.  Doesn't this look delicious?

HIH  

Welcome to this week's Happiness is Homemade party #588. Yes, we have hosted 588 weekly blog parties and we are still having fun! Let me try my math skills out here a little bit ... 588 divided by 52 weeks per year = 11.3 YEARS!

Proof positive that hosting blog parties is fun, or we wouldn't still be doing it. LOL

And, even more than fun ... it helps parents, writers, crafters, cooks, decorators, artists, teachers and on and on. Blog parties give visibility to our guests' creations and we like helping people. You can do your part, even if you don't fall into those categories, by enjoying the posts shared by our guests. Visit them, share them, and leave nice comments. Try it ... you'll like it! ❤️ This month of June, I am the host who gets to create our parties. My name is Sinea and my blog is Ducks 'n a Row. It is my privilege to pick out our features from the previous party to spotlight. I think I found a nice variety for you to enjoy. Please do share this party on your social media to remind people to come over and join us? New posts can be added for several days, now, so keep coming back to see what's new!
