macramé heart coasters
Whether you’re planning a romantic dinner for two or hosting a cocktail party for your galentines, these macramé heart coasters from My French Twist will definitely gather lots of compliments. If you’ve been wanting to learn macramé, this small project is great for beginners.

White Chocolate Raspberry Bundt Cake Recipe
This White Chocolate Raspberry Bundt Cake from Rose Bakes is the perfect blend of sweet white chocolate and bright raspberry flavor – a delicious cake that’s dressed up enough for special occasions yet simple enough for weeknight baking.

Football Mason Jar Crafts & Party Ideas
The football party – and tailgating – has been elevated to a whole new level. A level that includes mason jars and paint and duct tape and … well … all the great and creative ideas collected here today.

Playhouse Laundry Center
The laundry center is designed to be a washer and dryer, but Studio 27 wanted her playhouse to have two separate appliances.
What a fun Renofor the kids.

Pantry Apron Hook
We are so loving our organized pantry make-over! Part of that organization was a new hook for our aprons.I tend to collect aprons,but the collection was getting too massiveI sorted through and got it down to a few that we use on a regular basis.
So on the wall just inside the pantry door,I added a simple apron hook.

Happy New Year from HIH
Happy New Year from HIH
Happy New Year Everyone, hard to believe another year has passed us by and 2026 is upon us. I hope your holiday season was wonderful. Mine was so good, I forgot to post the party last night. :)
There has been so many great features shared with us every week and I truly hope Y’all continue sharing into 2026.
A fresh start, January is back to me, A Labour of Life. So Lets see what you have been up to.

Bubbly New Year’s Eve Table Décor
First off, surprise, I am starting my year off with a pretty Tablescape.
Anne's Entitled Life listed this as New Year’s Eve but it can be used at any party where you have a bar, engagement parties, weddings, Mardi Gras, Roaring 20S Party, the list is endless.
This is super easy to make. You are using leftover Christmas ornaments, an old floral container, and an old candlestick. If you do not have items to upcycle, look for an oversized martini glass, or champagne glass at your local party supply store and use that.

Surprisingly Simple Hot Chocolate Bar for the Holidays and Beyond
An organized Season brings something food and fun for the New Year. Have you been wanting to set up a hot chocolate bar but are not sure where to begin? We’re sharing simple steps to put together a festive station and providing free labels you can use!

Crock Pot Cherry Jalapeno Meatballs
Easy Crock Pot Cherry Jalapeno Meatballs is a sweet and spicy holiday appetizer recipe perfect for all your holiday parties. Flour on my Face sure caught my attention.

One Pan Lemon Chicken and Rice Recipe Made Simple
For this recipe The Recipe Idea Shoppe uses long-grain rice, tender chicken, and a beautiful blend of lemon zest, Parmesan cheese, and classic Mediterranean spices like oregano and thyme. The result is a wonderfully creamy, rich, and tangy dish that tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen.

French Onion Meatloaf
Rounding out our almost Foodie week is a French Onion Meatloaf from More or Less Cooking. A cozy and delicious variation of a traditional recipe. I blend juicy ground beef with a handful of ingredients, featuring the essential French onion soup spice blend. Bake this delectable dish that will fill your kitchen with incredible aromas and have your family rush to the dinner table!

Last Party in 2025 for HIH
Last Party in 2025 for HIH
Come and join in the fun here at Happiness is Homemade # 617, our last party for 2025
As we come to the close of the year, we, your hosts, would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been part of HIH throughout the year. Your participation, encouragement, shared ideas, and ongoing support have helped shape this community into something truly special, and it has been a privilege to connect with you.
Looking ahead to the New Year, we wish all of you a wonderful and prosperous 2026, filled with good health, new opportunities, continued growth, and success in all that you pursue. Thank you for being part of our HIH journey. We look forward to another fantastic year.

It's Esmé, from EsmeSalon. Around here, it’s all about good food and good balance, the kind where nourishing, feel-good recipes live happily alongside the “just one more slice” treats. Because honestly, life’s better when both get a seat at the table. You’ll find flavors inspired by kitchens from all over the world, and I hope that a few of them don’t just get tried once, but become go-to favorites you keep coming back to.
Last week, our hosts each shared a favorite post, and this week I’d love to shine the spotlight on them and say a heartfelt “Thank You”. We truly appreciate all the time, care, and dedication they’ve put into bringing this linkup together week after week throughout the year.
