The Crazy Little Lovebirds link party 101

 Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #101! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas.

Thank you to everyone who joined us last week at party 100! And I read through all of your comments, and you are all just wonderful. This link party continues because of you!

This week:

I logged a few volunteer hours with an organization where I started volunteering. I've been volunteering for about 6 weeks now. We help people through difficult times. There's just something so rewarding about knowing that your kindness and presence have helped someone.


I reconnected with an old friend. We chatted, laughed, and shared old memories. We both know that our lives are completely different, but it's nice to be able to say hi and reconnect.

My husband continues with physical therapy for his back. We're honestly not sure how long this will last.

Both girls start school on Monday. We have a 10th grader and a 6th grader. Hopefully, all goes smoothly.

How was your week?

Congratulations to our featured bloggers

Easy Floral Decoupage Idea for Faux Pumpkin Display

 Hi everyone! I'm excited to share a simple and easy floral pumpkin design you can create quickly. Today, we will make a faux floral pumpkin display using decoupage and a few additional designs. I'm reusing a foam pumpkin that I bought at Dollar Tree. If you’re ready, let’s begin creating an easy floral decoupage faux pumpkin display! Quick video tutorial **Materials needed:** - Acrylic paint - Paintbrush - Floral napkin - Faux pearls - Faux flowers - Craft knife - Scissors - Mod Podge Carefully remove the top of your pumpkin. I used my craft knife to go around the top section, creating a hole at the top. Using a paintbrush, apply acrylic paint to the pumpkin. I chose to paint mine black. Next, use scissors to cut out a few flowers from your napkin. Make sure to remove the second layer of the napkin before cutting out the designs.   Once you have your floral designs cut out, use a paintbrush to apply Mod Podge to the pumpkin. While the Mod Podge is wet, add the floral napkin c...
