The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 135

Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #135! I’m so happy you’re here! This is a warm and friendly gathering where you can share your amazing ideas—whether it's tasty recipes, fun family activities, creative crafts, home projects, or any other joyful inspirations. If you love finding new DIY ideas and learning from other bloggers, you’re in the perfect spot!


Hello everyone, I hope you all had a wonderful week. We celebrated our oldest daughter's 15th birthday. I let her know that you all shared those sweet birthday wishes with her, and she thanks you and truly appreciates it. I baked her a cookie cake, and we enjoyed dinner at Applebee's. My mom sent us a gift card, so we didn't have to decide what to have for dinner that day. She really made things easy!


As always, thank you to everyone who joins in each week. I appreciate each of you. You truly make this party wonderful.

I've enjoyed visiting each of your blogs and seeing what's new in the blogging world. We have some great features this week.

    1. Jennifer, thank you. It's hard to believe that she's 15 now. Yes, when I first learned about cookie cakes and just how delicious they were, my husband had purchased me one from a local mall years ago. It was wonderful. Yes, look it up; they are wonderful.

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 ...

If you love finding new DIY ideas and learning from other bloggers, you’re in the perfect spot! Happy Friday! I hope you are all doing well. This week was a little rough. It started with my husband having a cough, sore throat, sneezing, and whole-body aches. Of course, that was passed on to the rest of us, but we have been so fortunate to just have a sore throat. This calls for plenty of hydration, vitamin C, and occasional medication. I hope you all had a nice week. Just yesterday, the weather reached 102 degrees! It definitely was hot out. Now, onto the party, we have some wonderful featured posts to share this week. Thank you to everyone who joined last week, and if you are new here, welcome! We're so gl...
