The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 89

Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #89! This party provides a platform for sharing inspiring content such as recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home decor, and other uplifting ideas.


Hello everyone! I hope all is well. If you celebrated Mother's Day, I hope it was lovely. How was your week?
 Our week was busy. 
We had doctor appointments, finals at school, and my husband has been working on a backyard project.

 I've included a collage of our week. 

My youngest used my phone camera to take pictures of our blooming clematis vines—one is purple, and the other is deep pink. 

My husband received a guitar from his boss at work. He now has this one along with his bass guitar. 

I've only seen one hummingbird at our feeders. They're so quick; there may be more.

 I've been enjoying my time out on the back covered porch. I added a few new outdoor curtains to the space.

 My youngest and my husband made me homemade apple bread on Mother's Day; it was delicious. This week, we enjoyed a nice breakfast out after returning from an appointment at the hospital.

Congratulations to our featured bloggers

Nancy at Two Trails One Road has shared her post, "Tuesday Tidbits, Reflections." She highlights moments that shaped her winter journey—challenging moments, travel memories, and welcoming spring. 


Maya at The Little Treasures shared her post, "Hospital Days are slow." While her daughter Eva recovers in the hospital and Maya keeps her company, she has found a few things that have helped her maintain her sanity while in the hospital—painting, crochet, junk journaling, and a few other activities.

    Thanks for featuring our Celebrate Your Graduate with DIY Party Fun! Looks like you and your family have had a busy week but lots of fun. I do need to get our hummingbird feeders out--one little guy flew by yesterday and was disappointed. It has been so cold her in N. Nevada, I didn't think the birds had arrived yet. Have a wonderful week!

Colorful Summer Flower: Recycled Paper Towel DIY

  Looking to bring a little sunshine into your space without visiting the craft store? This whimsical summer flower decoration makes great use of what you already have—think beads, pom poms, a humble paper towel tube, and a splash of acrylic paint. Bonus: it’s the perfect way to reuse an old frame and welcome summer in style! What You’ll Need: 1 paper towel tube (emptied, of course!) Acrylic paint (I chose a deeper pink) Craft pom poms (yellow makes a great center!) Assorted beads (medium for the stem, smaller for embellishing the petals) Foam letters (for your summer message) A reused frame (square or any shape of your choice) Scissors Hot glue gun Creating your summer flower decoration Cut the Tube and Shape the Petals :  Start by cutting the paper towel tube into four evenly-sized sections. Each section will serve as a petal. You should be left with four rings. Next, flatten each ring, then gently reshape it to form soft ovals. These will mimic delicate flower...

Fun with popsicle sticks...and more!

Since my daughter and I didn't make it out to the library, we did our own craft, and story time. (Which in my opinion is the best) :) Today we made popsicle stick frames, with a message. It was so much fun. For this craft the materials you need are: -Popsicle sticks -Hot glue gun -Paint -Markers/crayons -Construction paper (and scissors) 1.Start off by making a frame out of your popsicle sticks. Glue the corners together. I went ahead and made a message on construction paper to glue on to the back of the frame. (You will have to cut it to fit the frame. 2.Once that is done, paint your frame. (Have fun with it!) My daughter had so much fun with all the different colors. :) 3.Now once that is finished make a T-shape out of two popsicle sticks. (This is for the stand for the back of the frame.) Glue both sticks together, and glue it to the back of the construction paper. You're all done! Now you have a cute popsicle stick frame, with a message! Enjoy~ ...

DIY Upcycled Peanut Jars

Transform your old peanut jars into stylish, functional containers with these creative and easy DIY upcycling ideas. Learn how to repurpose your peanut jars and give them a new life with practical and decorative uses.   Materials needed: Two  empty peanut containers Two sheets of crafting paper tape scissors Start  by removing the old label on your peanut containers  Next, you'll want to wrap your crafting paper around your container.  If you find that it does not completely cover the container, cut out a single strip to use later. I found it easier to wrap my containers with my craft paper and make the marks I needed before cutting them to size.  Tape your crafting paper into the container and then make necessary cuts to the paper using your scissors. Once this is done, take the last piece of crafting paper that you cut out earlier and place it over the spot that you were unable to cover. Take some clear tape and apply it to the contai...
