Gift Ideas on Happiness Is Homemade

Gift Ideas on Happiness Is Homemade



Welcome to the Happiness Is Homemade Party. Thanksgiving is coming soon and ours is going to be rather quiet. My brother-in-law and sister-in-law had to go back up north for some medical reasons. I am so sad. 

Now a word from this month's hostess - Katie from Love My Messy Messy Mess here - can you believe this year is almost over?!?!?!!  This thought just occurred to me for whatever random reason last week and I nearly had a panic attack.  Where does the time go?

For all those who celebrate here in the states, I'm really looking forward to Thanksgiving, but I was definitely shopping at Walmart today for Christmas gifts.  Have you started Christmas shopping yet?

Lots of Inspiration on Happiness Is Homemade

Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #558



Welcome to the Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #558. I hope you are having a great weekend. Mine has been sad, I m taking care of my daughters dogs and cat while she is away.  Her cat wasn't feeling well before she left and last week she didn't want to eat. I had to take her to the vet and they gave her fluids for three days. She seemed better but she would still not eat. Today I took her back in and they discovered that her has cancer. Needless to say, I had to put her down. I felt so bad and my daughter felt even worse that she could not be here. 

Katie from Love My Messy Messy Mess and I'm continuing my hosting responsibilities for the month of November!

All About Pumpkins on Happiness Is Homemade

All About Pumpkins on Happiness Is Homemade

Welcome to the party. This was supposed to be my month to host, but my system sort of crashed and I could not get  the party ready but Linda was kind enough to do it for me. I made an old version of my site for now. Hopefully it all works. 

October will be here in a couple of days and that means it is time for fall ideas and Thanksgiving Month in Canada. 

Today, I celebrate Fall in all its glory. Muted Pumpkins, Rustic Decor and all the things to sip and savour.  Come show us what you are working on.

Celebration of All Ghourd'y Details

This week, a return back to all things Fall. Celebrating everything Pumpkin. Normally I offer a variety, food, sweets, crafts and tables but today is a sweet switch on my norm.

Paper Pumpkin Crafts

First up are the cutest Paper Pumpkins from My French Twist . She tells us I’ve never been a big fan of wrapping my house in giant spider webs, but I have to say when those first crisp breezes of Fall begin to blow through my windows, I can’t wait to begin some serious seasonal decorating. And pumpkins. The only thing better than eating them is crafting with them.

Slow Cooker Pumpkin Chili

Parts of a Pumpkin Craft

Darcy and Brian are sharing a fun and educational kids craft today. This craft helps kids appreciate pumpkins in our traditions while having fun and improving their motor skills. Plus, they’ll learn all about the different parts of a pumpkin!

Seems odd for me not to yet again not share a fun fallscape table, but I really wanted to stick to the Pumpkin Theme this week for you, Canadian Thanksgiving is coming soon so share some fun ideas for us to use, got a fun table idea, a new dessert or a Turkey surprise?? Hit me up with a new link.

Plus I promise we will still be sharing Halloween and tables and crafts and DIY's all around. Just really needed a fun theme this weekend.

Mommy Hates Cooking shares a heartwarming story along with a great soup recipe. The best days growing up were when we saw grandma coming over with her huge pitcher of soup and cornbread. It was always this soup and she always brought it over in a big pitcher. It was just the best comfort meal from childhood.

Fall Ideas on Happiness Is Homemade

Fall Ideas on Happiness Is Homemade

Hello, everyone! Hope your weekend is going well! Niki from Life as a LEO Wife is here, and she will be choosing the features for the month of August. If you missed last week's party, you can check it out here.

Can you believe it's time to start decorating for fall for we bloggers & to begin planning your decorations for fall even if you're not a blogger?! This year is just flying by. This week I'm going to be featuring some great fall posts that were shared this week. Let's get started!

Jenna from The Painted Apron shared a super easy way to make a pumpkin with a toilet paper roll. I love doing this during fall to display the extra tp rolls in our guest bathroom. Adding cinnamon sticks as a stem like she did will have your bathroom smelling wonderful for any guests!

It's the season of pumpkin spice, which this pumpkin spice cheesecake donut recipe is perfect for! I absolutely love cheesecake, so this fall version created by Crystal of Crystal and Comp., looks so delicious to me! Cheesecake, sugar, pumpkin spice, and donuts all in one? Yes, please! I've lost over 45 lbs., to a very unhealthy weight, so these look like they could help me add a few pounds back on too. All around plus for me!

Penny of Penny's Vintage Home has been staying out of the heat and staying busy indoors by creating fall vignettes, including this lovely jewel tea percolator vignette. I love the vintage mixer and percolator, and the ceramic cake with the apple pie candle. I bet that candle smells divine! The framed print just brings it all together for a beautiful fall vignette!

You all know that I love a good Dollar Tree project, so this DIY farmhouse fall pumpkin craft idea is right up my alley! Emily from Hunny I'm Home used ceramic pumpkins, paint, and vinyl to make these adorable faux Rae Dunn pumpkins. Quick, affordable, and oh-so-easy!

Another adorable Dollar Tree pumpkin decor DIY that I loved is this rope and twine pumpkin made by Donna of An Organized Season. She used different sized styrofoam pumpkins wrapped with rope and twine then added beautiful embellishments of braids. The spindle "stem" with leaves and curly Q's is just icing on the cake!

ON TO THE PARTY!

School Features on HIH

School Features on HIH

Hello, everyone! It's Niki from Life as a LEO Wife here, and I will be choosing the features for the month of August. I'm so excited to see all of the amazing things you have to share this week!

Most of the South has already headed back to school, but some of our Northern friends haven't quite gotten there yet, according to friends of mine. Most of them will head back in the next 2 weeks or so, so I thought I would share one final week of back-to-school ideas. I planned to share end of summer ideas, like decor and such, but I didn't have enough to do a theme. Apparently, I need my features as themed as my decor, ha-ha! So, let's take a look at the awesome back-to-school features, and pray that our friends who still have kiddos at home ALL day can hang on for a few more days or weeks.

Another school year means another round of fall and spring school pictures. Morgan at Charleston Crafted shared how to hang a staircase gallery wall where you can display all of those years of pictures and see your little one growing right before your eyes every day!

Beth over at Creatively Beth shared an adorable idea for a back-to-school teacher gift idea. My mother and grandmother were teachers, and the items that Beth included are things that teachers will be so thankful for because teachers have to spend their own money throughout the year for supplies!

Last week I shared an idea for laminating & reusing a printable for back-to-school pictures to have K-12 cohesive photos, but this week Tonya of 24 Hour Family shared these cute printables for photos, one for each year of school. Now you have cute pictures to put in that senior year photo slideshow (I know, we don't want to think about that day coming too soon!!).

If you want to have breakfast ready to go easily as soon as you get up in the morning or if your kiddo loves breakfast, even for lunch, these breakfast Bento Box ideas from Kelli at 3 Boys & a Dog. There are more than 25 ideas, so your child won't get food weariness like my hubby and I have from eating tacos my son loves EVERY 2 nights! These breakfast ideas travel well, so if you have to eat on the road, you're good to go.

Darcy and Brian has a tutorial for adorable coffee filter sunflowers that is great for little ones. Teachers can use this for pre-school through first grade or so as they discuss lessons on flowers, seeds, or seasons or even just for a fun craft time activity. This is also great for moms to do with little ones left behind while their older siblings go to school.

ON TO THE PARTY!
