The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 118

Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #118! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas.

A Few Happenings


My youngest's volleyball team has won every game since the start of the season. We're so proud of her and her team. We have two more games left this season.

This week, someone slammed our side fence with their motorcycle. Thank goodness for cameras! My husband went over to check if the individual was okay, and now we have made arrangements to get them to pay for the damage.

It snowed for two days, and we were happy for the moisture.

I tried a copycat version of the Starbucks sugar plum Danish recipe, and it turned out great! Instead of plum, I used black cherry jam. It was equally delicious. 



Congratulations to our featured bloggers

Jennifer at Studio 27 showcased her adorable Faux Mini Gingerbread Houses. She explains how she created these charming little houses using air-dry clay and a few other materials.


Life of 2 Snowbirds shared a travel post about Saguaro National Park in Tucson, Arizona. I really enjoyed this post because I spent a lot of time in Tucson when I lived in Arizona for many years. It’s filled with great details!

Melynda at Scratchmade Food for Hungry People shared her delightful recipe for Whole Wheat Jam Crumble Bars. These bars sound delicious! You can choose your favorite jam and enjoy the treat.

Lisa Notes wrote a post titled "Learning to Hold onto What Matters: My Four Somethings for November." Join her as she reflects on what she loved, learned, what went well, and what she decided to let go of.

  1. Ugh about your fence and the motorcycle accident! That's great that you had camera footage of it. Glad no one was hurt (other than your fence). And congrats to your daughter's volleyball team. Hope they can keep the perfect record through the next two games.
    Thanks for featuring my post from last week!

    1. Lisa, thanks. Yeah, it was a total shock when it happened. I'm also glad the person was okay. And thanks so much for your sweet words about my daughter and her volleyball team. We hope they can keep that record too. I hope you're doing well, and we really enjoyed your post.

  2. Your Danish sounds delicious Stephanie! Wow snow, we're in a heat wave here on the East coast of Australia at the moment with bushfires raging not far from us.

    Thank you for hosting. I'm sitting at #12 this week.
    Blessings, Jennifer

  3. Dear Stephanie, Thanks for hosting the #118 blogparty. My shares this time are #13, 14, and 15. Love the feature about Saguaro National Park as I live in Tucson. Must admit I think the eastside of the park is tops. Happy Holidays and be well.

  4. It's so good of you to care for the motor rider. But indeed, he should pay for damages to your fence.

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...
