Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #224

Messy Messy Fail - It's official - my second thyme plant is dead.  I seriously have no idea what I did.  It has little white specs all over the stem and on the dirt around the stem.  Any ideas folks?

Tidy Victory - I made the cutest cupcakes EVER for my sister's Velveteen Rabbit baby shower - pictures to come on my Instagram and Facebook profiles!

Happiness is Homemade Link Party 224 Features of the Week

I have a great recipe to feature, some awesome DIY projects and a fabulous room makeover. Grab a glass of sweet iced tea and sit a spell.

DIY Father's Day Tray

Father's Day is next Sunday, so I thought this sweet tray project from Janice and Susan (they're twins) from 5 Minutes for Mom would be one that anyone could make in a day. It could be adapted for any occasion or for everyday use.

DIY Storage Solution Does Double Duty

I'm a Gemini (My birthday is this coming week!) and I love doing 2 things at once and things that serve 2 purposes. So I loved this storage and seating solution from Vineta at The Handyman's Daugther. She give great, detailed instructions for this super cute farmhouse inspired bench.

Painted Pavers Give a Punch of Art to a Walkway

Do you have that side yard that gets neglected? I sure do and that's why I fell in love with this project from my friend Joy at The Aspiring Home. I first met Joy last summer at Haven Conference and then this spring when we were both in the One Room Challenge, I saw her amazing backyard makeover  ~ so much that it was one of my top 5 backyard favorites. I was so happy to see that she shared how to make these gorgeous pavers for her side yard. What a beautiful design.

Delicious Summer Key Lime Ribbon Cheesecake

Key Lime Pie aways reminds me of summer beach vacations in Destin, Florida when my kids were little. I think Key Lime Pie tastes so refreshing and just shouts summer. Try Jas' version from All That's Jas.

A Sunroom Makeover to Enjoy

I always love a good room makeover and this sunroom transformation from Jenna at Lantern Lane Designs. I would love to spend an afternoon relaxing in this lovely new space. This project just goes to show the transformative power of pillows, pillows and more pillows.

Now, let's get started now with this week's party. While you are here, we'd love it if you would visit the blogs of our lovely co-hosts!
