The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 120

 Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #120! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas.

**A Quick Note About the Party:** The party will remain open until December 26th of this month. Typically, each person shares three posts, but you are welcome to revisit and add more if you'd like during this time. If we reach 50 posts, the party will close at that point. If not, it will stay open until the 26th and will reopen on Friday, January 2, 2026.

I hope you are all doing well. I can’t believe this month is almost over, and a new year is just around the corner. If I had to describe this year in one word, it would be "growth."  I've encountered many beautiful experiences that have created cherished memories. I hope this year has treated you well. As you head into the new year, remember that you are loved. I am truly thankful for each of you. Thank you for joining the party each week and sharing your wonderful posts. You are all amazing!

This week, while I was getting an estimate for our fence repair, a little squirrel popped his head over the fence with a peanut in his mouth. I took a picture and then used a filter on my phone to add two different hat styles for him to wear. I did this for my youngest daughter, and I hope it brings a smile to your face, just as it did to mine!


Congratulations to our featured bloggers

DIY Tea Tin Planter for Sweet Mint

Today’s tiny DIY win: turning an empty lemon‑ginger tea tin into a planter for a sweet mint plant that needed some love. I cleaned the tin, added drainage, and nestled the mint inside. It instantly brightened up the space — the colors on the tin and the fresh green leaves look so sweet together. I love giving everyday items a second life, especially when they end up this cute. Quick Video Tutorial  I began this little project by cleaning out an empty metal tea container that I had saved. It still held a soft scent of lemon and ginger, and I loved the idea of giving it a second life. Once I washed and dried it, the container felt ready for a new purpose.   Next, I used a finishing nail and a hammer to create a few drainage holes in the bottom of the tin. Since metal containers don’t have natural drainage, this step helps keep the roots healthy and prevents the soil from becoming soggy. Having prepared the container, I carefully removed the sweet mint from its original pot. The ...
