Weekend Wonders #11

October 11, 2012 by Shatzi

I’m late on this week’s features, so this week, my link party and features post is getting combined. My friend gave me 3 huge boxes of apples that I was so excited to make applesauce with. About halfway through, I realized that this was going to be a bigger project than I realized! I love canning, but it sure can be a lot of work!! Hopefully we’ll appreciate all of the yummy homemade applesauce in the months to come!

So, on to the features. This week’s most viewed link was:

I love this printable from Alderberry Hill! It is a great day!!


And some of my favs:

Color Me Domestic is doing a 31 Days to Greener Sustainable Living challenge. Each day in October, she’s posting something about how to live more green!

 Do you have a daughter that seems to get her doll’s hair in a tangle? I know my daughter has that problem! Snippets of my Family, Faith and Crafting figured out how to get that tangly hair beautiful again!

This River Rock Boot Tray that Atkinson Drive shared is awesome!! I need one of these in my house (or in my garage, maybe!)

I love these spiderweb clings from Tutus and Tea Parties. Funny story…I was actually trying to figure out how to make these myself. I finally gave up and then saw these beauties! They are so easy to make, too!

Homemade caramels are like my favorite-est thing ever. I always buy a few when we are in a candy shop! But, now I don’t have to thanks to High Heels and Grills!!!

These shelves are so cool! Melissa from Redfly Creations took white Ikea Shelves and make them look like custom built-ins! I love, love how they turned out!!

Are you a Downton Abbey fan? I have a confession…I’ve never actually seen it. But, it is on my TV bucket list! Well, if you’re dying to watch Season 3, Controlling Craziness has the answer!!

Don’t forget to check the features at The Thriftiness Miss!

Now on to the party!!

One of my *favorite* parts about blogging is all of the amazing creativity out there in blogland! I’m so excited to see what everyone shares! Plus, since I’m co-hosting this link party, everything you share here will also be shared over at The Thriftiness Miss plus our weekly guest host. So, three blogs equals three times the exposure for your awesomeness!

This party has been so fun and has grown so fast, that we wanted to share the party every week with a guest host! This week’s guest host is Rachel from Like a Saturday. You have to check out the 31-days challenge she’s doing! It’s 31 days to a Stress Free Holiday Season! Who doesn’t want that!!




Now…on to the party. The party will be open until Tuesday at midnight and we’ll both be sharing our features on Wednesdays. Be sure and come back then to find out if you were featured. Plus, we’ll both be sharing other favorites throughout the week on our facebook pages, so if you’re not already a fan, you can find me here. We’ll also be pinning the features to our Weekend Wonders Pinterest Board

    Hi Shatzi, thanks for hosting. Can you change my title on #86 to “Dollar Store Pumpkin Head”? Also, this is my first time visiting and now I’m your newest GFC follower. I would love for you to return the favor.

    Thanks.
