The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 145

Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #145! 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!

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 glad you decided to join in.

    Wow! You've had some high temps, Stephanie! We have been in the low 70's and rainy on and off much of the week. I hope everyone at your house feels better very soon! That chain effect is never fun! As always, thanks for a great party! I love the variety of posts you've featured this week, too - lots of summer goodness!

      Laura, I love rainy and cooler weather. I bet you have been enjoying that. I agree that the chain effect is never fun. We're doing much better. I think I've started losing my voice, though. I hope you are all doing well. Thank you for joining the party each week. We truly appreciate you.

    Hope you all feel better soon. We've had some hot temps. Not over 100, though! We had a great spring, and I'm not really looking forward to summer weather. But, I'll take it over winter, any time! Thanks for hosting!

    Hi Stephanie, glad to hear everyone is on the mend. I think a late spring/summer virus is harder because of the warmer weather. Thanks so much for hosting, wishing you a better week ahead.

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. 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 part — slow, even pressu...
