The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 105

 Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #105! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas.

Happy Friday! How is everyone doing? While I'm at it, how's the weather where you are? Our temperatures are starting to cool off; tomorrow, they say our high will be in the 60s.

 We're still seeing a few hummingbirds at the feeder, and I recently made a ladybug house so that if any want a place to stay when the weather gets colder, they can move right in. I've never had one myself, but I did some research before building it. It's essentially a bug hotel. They have the cutest bee hotel at our local nature center, too. So it helped me with a few different ideas.

I hope you are all doing well, and if I haven't told you lately, thank you so much for joining the party each week. I appreciate all of you! Now, onto the wonderful featured posts.

Congratulations, featured bloggers


Two Chicks and a Mom shared a recipe for Homemade Vegetable Beef Soup, and I honestly can't wait to make some this fall and winter. I'm looking forward to a few comfort dishes. Head over to check out their recipe. 

HoneyBears and SydneyBeans shared a post, - Ninjas' 50th Birthday'; Whistler, Vancouver Island, and Kingfisher Resort plus Island Treats. Head over and explore how they celebrated a birthday and other fun activities. 

Drugstore Divas shared a recipe for frozen strawberry lemonade. I think I'll make this on our next grilling day! It looks delicious and refreshing!

 Krafty Planner shared her post, Planning 2026 with the Everything Planner. And honestly, I love this! She designed it around the P.L.A.N. everything philosophy. Head over and learn more about it and how it could help you live more intentionally.

All featured posts will be pinned on Crazylittlelovebird's Featured Pinterest Board.

    A ladybug house? I didn't know those existed (other than my own house, where they like to live, lol). How adorable that would be. :)

      Lisa, I know, right? Haha, yes, they sure do. Lowe's actually has some for sale right now, but I wasn't sure about the ones they have. So I took a butterfly house, and my husband customized the entrance, and I painted it and whatnot. We will see if they will even use it, or if they will just hide in the foliage over the winter like they normally do.

    Stephanie, thanks so much for the visit and the link=up! I love the idea of a ladybug hotel, we have several "wild areas" on our property that we do not mow, water or mess with in any way. They are set aside for the bugs. Plus I have a habitat where bugs of all kinds can take up residence, and a special house for Mason bees. But I can see a ladybug hotel in my future, thanks!

      Melynda, I love that you have an area in your yard that doesn't get mowed, intentionally leaving that for the bugs. How wonderful. Love that you have a special house for Mason bees. This is my first attempt at a ladybug house. I hope it can help some of them out, at least. Thank you for sharing with us!

    Thanks so much for the party, Stephanie. Our hummingbirds are thinning out, too. I think it's breaking my husband's heart, as he just loves to feed them every day! I love the idea of a ladybug house!

      Pam, you're very welcome. Aw, I can sympathize with your husband. I adore the hummingbirds and love watching them. We are down to just a few. Thank you, I'm hoping the ladybug house works.

    Summer is still around in our neck of the woods with low 100 degree weather here in Tucson. Lucky you with 60 degree weather tomorrow. My shares at this fabulous party #105 are 11, 12, and 13. Enjoy and be well. Nancy Andres @ Colors 4 Health

      Oh, that Tucson heat! I remember it all so well. My mom lives in Sierra Vista, and so I visited Tucson quite a bit. Have a great weekend.

If you love finding new DIY ideas and learning from other bloggers, you’re in the perfect spot! Hi everyone! How was your week? This week, we were blessed with more rain, and I am so thankful. It's been a hot summer with wildfires and droughts, so it's nice to have a few days to cool down a bit. Below, I've shared two photos that I posted on my Instagram story. The first one shows one of our lovely hummingbirds relaxing on the swing near the feeder. I love watching them from our dining room window. In the second photo, we had another visitor at the feeder, and the sunlight shining through the window that evening was absolutely beautiful. I'd say this week was a nice one.

DIY Floral Wooden Jack‑O’‑Lanterns (Easy Fall Decor)

I’ve been having so much fun creating fall projects this year. These floral wooden jack‑o’‑lanterns  started as simple wooden pumpkins, but with a few pretty transfers and some soft paint colors, they turned into the sweetest little fall accents. I love how the florals give them a cozy, cottage‑style feel while still keeping that classic jack‑o’‑lantern charm. They’re quick to make, easy to customize, and such a cute way to add a warm autumn touch to your home. Watch the video tutorial Materials Wooden pumpkin cutouts Floral transfers Acrylic paint (your chosen colors) Gold acrylic paint Green acrylic paint Mini dowels Hot glue gun + glue sticks Small wooden stands Brown acrylic paint Paintbrushes   Add the floral transfers I started by placing my floral transfers onto each wooden pumpkin, just arranging them until they felt right. Once they were where I wanted them, I used a little rubbing tool to press them down and transfer the design onto the wood. Take your time with this...

If you love finding new DIY ideas and learning from other bloggers, you’re in the perfect spot! Happy Friday! How was your week? I hope you all had a nice week. I've decided to completely dig up my flowerbeds and start each of them over next growing season. The heat did a number on my flowers this growing season. Our grass also did not do well this year. So now we are left with so many decisions about what to do next.  I'm excited to share the wonderful featured posts with everyone. As always, thank you to each of you who participates in the party each week.

  Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #78! This party provides a platform for sharing inspiring content such as recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home decor, and other uplifting ideas.  How is everyone doing? I hope all is well with each of you! This week, the weather was beautiful. Of course, it's a tease—where we live, they call it "false Spring." I'll just enjoy it while it lasts. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, we’re taking daily walks, and the sunsets have been stunning. There’s still snow on the mountains, but we had a wonderful visit to the nature center where we admired some beautiful artwork. Congratulations to our featured bloggers - Amy from Amy's Creative Pursuits shared her "Summer Jobs Dirty Dozen Card Making" project. Be sure to visit her site to see the adorable cards she created; my personal favorite is the canning card! - Our Grand Lives posted a fantastic post titled "Baking with Littles,...

Simple Diy Autumn Tree.

Simple DIY Autumn Tree With just a few materials you can create this simple Autumn tree. My inspiration for this project was my love for Fall. I created this using materials from my local Dollar Tree store. Materials needed 🍁 Ribbon 🍁Fall leaves (I picked up 10 bundles) 🍁Mini lights/ I used mini leaf lights 🍁Twine 🍁 1 Plunger 🍁1 pot 🍁Scissors 🍁Hot glue   Creating your Autumn tree Start by wrapping your twine around your plunger stick.  You'll want to completely cover the wooden stick. Once you're near the middle of the stick, you'll want to stop and start attaching your fall leaves. Take each leaf bundle, and glue it to your plunger stick. You'll want to have some that are glued closer to the top and a few that are lower. This will help fill in spots.   Once you have all the leaves glued on, take the rest of your twine and cover the stems on your leaf bundle. Continue wrapping them, making sure to cover the stems. Using your scissors cut the remaining twine o...
