Messy Messy Fail - I have still successfully not grown ANY succulent from the seeds I purchased. At this point I think it's safe to say the seeds are shot - nothing is growing. Well that was disappointing.
Tidy Victory - The peonie bushes all around the house are starting to bloom and I cannot tell you how gorgeous they look or how amazing they smell. I've always wanted just one peonie bush, but here at Starry Acres I think we have at least 10! So lovely to have fresh flowers in the house!
It's the first weekend in June and summer is in full force. I'm so happy to have you visit our Happiness is Homemade Link Party 223. And I'm even happier to be your hostess this month. This is a busy month for our family: 3 family birthdays (including mine!!), my older daughter's anniversary, Father's Day, and family visits. I'm sure you are soaking up the early days of summer, too.

Happiness is Homemade Link Party 223 Features
Farmhouse Party Theme
Summer is the time to party and there are so many themes to choose from. I love Jenna from Rain on a Tin Roof's idea for a Farmhouse Party for a child's birthday, but I don't think it has to be a birthday. Any occasion would be fun to bring out the party animals.
Rose Theme Tea Party
For a more adult, ladylike event, Angelina from Petite Haus has the perfect centerpieces and the prettiest cake for a Rose Tea Party. Whether you are 9 or 90, what girl wouldn't want to dress up for this delightful get together celebrating roses?
Grilled Chili Lime Chicken
Whatever your dietary requirements or preferences, this delicious grilled chicken dish from Rebecca at Strength & Sunshine will make a great summertime main dish. I love the pairing of spice and citrus and this dish will be sure to please.
DIY Hanging Basket Stand
Hanging baskets provide beautiful focal points in our gardens. What do you do when you don't have a tree or fence to hang one on? You build a hanging basket stand. That's just what Leanna from Faeries & Fauna did and she shows us how to do it.
Antique Doors Become Barn Doors
I have a soft spot in my heart for antique doors that become barn doors because that's exactly what I did last summer for our laundry room update. Emily from Domestic Deadline took 2 sets of antique doors and used them in beautiful ways in her home. Great home decor and DIY your home inspiration here.
