Open House Party

 

 

Welcome to the Open House party!
 

 

 

Before we start this weeks party I want to thank each and everyone of you that join my party.  I am feeling really guilty for not being able to visit each of you and leave comments.  My life has changed drastically in the last nine months.  Taking care of my dad is a blessing, though sometimes not easy! I no longer have the time to spend on my blog, or visit other blogs, that I once did.  I have thought about shutting down for a while but my blogging buddies have been such huge support and your blogs offer me a temporary distraction from the stress.  Please forgive me if I am not visiting as often and I hope you know how very much I appreciate your support and friendship.

 

Thank You From The Bottom Of My Heart!

 

 

I have some great features from last week and I hope you enjoy....

 

Aimee @ The Vintage Estate  created this wonderful orb light using embroidery hoops.
Check out her blog for the tutorial.

Carol @ Art And Sand  has a very talented husband and last week she shared some
of his amazing paintings.

This beautiful Spring mantle was created by Revi @  Revisionary Life.

Welcome to the Open House party.

 

Thanks to everyone for joining last weeks party.   There was a great turnout and so many

Open House Party

Welcome to the Open House party!

I guess you noticed there was no Open House party last week. I want to thank all of you

 that emailed me wanting to know if I was okay.
 

I am fine,  but my laptop wasn't.  My computer crashed and it was in the shop for six

days. They were able to save most of my data... at a big price of course.  The laptop is

going back to the shop tomorrow because all my email is going to trash.
 

Since there was no party last week,  there will not be features at this party.  Hopefully,
next week we will be back to normal.

Thanks for visiting and please feel free to join the party this week without

linking back to me. 

xx
Sherry

Welcome to the Open House party.

 

I hope everyone had a great News Years.  There is an old saying "What you do on New

Years day is what you will be doing the rest of the year."   If this is true I should have a

very lucky 2013.  I received an email yesterday that I had won $500 of bedding from

a blog giveaway. Yippee!  I'll  be back later to share my win.

 

There were so many great links to last weeks part and I chose a few to feature this week.

 

Enjoy....

 

 



 

Amanda at Dixie Delights  showed us her pretty New Years tablescape using collard

greens as a centerpiece.  Check out her recipe for champagne cupcakes and champagne

jello shots.  Did you eat collard greens to bring more money to you in 2013?  

 

 

 

This beautiful bedroom belongs to Kristel @ The Velvet Door. Visit her blog

to see the wonderful transformation of her bedroom and master bath.

 

 

 

I don't know anyone that enjoys decorating for Christmas more than Debbie at

A Debbie-Dabble Christmas.   In this post she answers questions about decorating

her nineteen beautiful trees and the many Christmas vignettes. 

 

On to the party....

Welcome to the Open House party.

Thank you for joining the party each week!

 

Only six days till Christmas!

  Are you ready?

Enjoy the wonderful inspiration from last weeks party....

I had to giggle at the conversation Suzan @ Simply Vintageous had with
her husband about decorating this ladder.  I love it SuzyQ.

Judy @ JBigg's Little Pieces shared her daughters beautiful tree that
she helped decorate.

This amazing cloche was the centerpiece of a beautiful table created
by Linda at  A Toile Tale.

Katie @ Creatively Living  gives us a tour of her home beautifully
decorated for Christmas.

I hope you enjoyed the features.  There will be no Open House party
next Thursday as we will be celebrating the holiday with family.

Two of my grandchildren will be visiting tomorrow and I will be giving them
lots of hugs and kisses. After last weeks terrible tragedy I will be holding on to
them tightly and praying for their safety.

Wishing each of you a Happy Holiday.

xoxo,
Sherry

Welcome to the Open House party.

 

 

 

Last weeks party was great and I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful

Thanksgiving tablescapes and vignettes.  I know many of you have

started decorating for Christmas and I can't wait to see what you have

to share.  You will find the link to join the party at the bottom of

 this post.

 

 Here is just a small sample of the many wonderful post from

last week.

 

 

This picture made my heart skip a beat!  Penny @ Penny's Vintage Home made

this romantic tree from vintage wedding gowns...Gorgeous!

 

 

 

Check out the pretty tablescape at A Toile Tale.   I am green with envy over her

 beautiful antique plate rack.  

 

 

Rhonda @ Blue Creek Home created these stunning angel wings. Can you imagine the hours

it took to make all those ruffles?  The end result is FABULOUS!

 

 

This amazing chalk board was created by Jeannine @ The Concrete Cottage.  Take

a look at the great tips she shares about this project...Love it.

 

Thanks to everyone that shared their post last week at the party. I won't be hosting

an "official"  holiday party this year but I hope you will link up all your holiday

decor and recipes for the next few weeks at the Open House party.  

 

Hugs,

Sherry

six of these stunning tiaras at her favorite thrift store.

 

 

 

 

I don't think there is anything more delicious than homemade bread.  Tani @

Tagana Rose was kind enough to share this recipe with us.
