Tips & Tricks

Good morning, everyone!  I hope you're having a great start to your week.

I'm trying to channel my inner retro housewife... I've been spending time trying to get myself presentable (this stay at home mommy has even been applying makeup everyday this week), my house presentable, and dinner on the table when the hubby walks in the door!  Whewh!  It's a chore, but it's been fun to imagine myself as the modern day June Cleaver.... 

I thought I would share this with you all... My mother inlaw sings it to my daughter all of the time... her mama sang it to her.... so my daughter LOVES to dance to it... I can just imagine a housewife from the 1950's dancing around her kitchen in an apron to Patti Page's Mockingbird Hill!

 It's party time, again!  I can't wait to see what you all have to share.  Last week I asked that the entries be only fall related to celebrate our 1st Annual Harvest Tour of Homes (you can view those entries via the links on the the right sidebar), but this week, anything goes!  

There were so many wonderful things linked last week!

I'm so impressed with this "Trick or Treat" countdown shared by "Ribbons & Glue".  It's so whimsical, and I love giving little one's a countdown to add a little magic to the month!

Amy at "While Wearing Heels" linked up an awesome planter box transformation using pumpkins & gourds!  & she shares a technique that I had never heard of to keep the squirrels from eating your decorations!  It's a MUST read!  Love it!


"Atkinson Drive" shared the most adorable, out of the box wreath!  I laughed so hard, and I have plans to make one for my front door!  LOVE THIS!  Too funny!


Seriously, though, I could share every link up from last week - the party was THAT good!  You'll have to revisit for more ideas....:)

Okay, SO, without further adieu, Happy Linking!
