Messy Messy Fail - Although I have been getting rid of clothes for the last few months, I keep throwing different items into different piles in the bedroom. I know the piles drive my husband crazy but how else can I sort what needs to be put away for the summer, what's getting donated, etc.? I'm not making a trip to donate until it's a hefty load - just keep sorting piles I guess!
Tidy Victory - The breakfast nook garden is fully weeded and ready for some weed killer/filler plants. The plan is to A) keep watch for the Snow On the Mountain to grow back and 2) hit it up hard with weed killer and make it go away D) plant some pretty flowers that will fill in space so the Snow On the Mountain doesn't come back. Let's see how it goes!

Happiness is Homemade Link Party 275
We have reached HIH Link Party 275 ~ a milestone of sorts, don't you think? Let's celebrate with some awesome features. Usually, I included 1 recipe, but the DIY projects this week just blew me away. So this week's features are all about creativity, resourcefulness, and making our homes pretty and practical.
Happiness is Homemade Link Party 275 Weekly Features
I love homes, touring homes, designing homes, looking at homes; this very pretty updated neutral and gray living room from Linda at It All Started with Paint is so peaceful and soothing. What a beautiful setting to inspire.
I don't know about you, but I have dreams, yes, dreams, of redoing and updating our master closet. Michelle of The Scrape Shoppe Blog shared several great ideas and I literally went down the rabbit hole reading and drooling (figuratively speaking) over all these closet makeovers.
Still thinking about 4th of July in a few weeks, I thought this DIY wood flag was one of the best patriotic DIY projects: simple, quick, inexpensive, and so impactful. Thanks to Ann of Apple Street Cottage for a sharing your creativity.
Sometimes, it's the little things that make a different in our home decor. Trish of Uncommon Designs added a little embellishment to a woven basket as part of an Anthropology~Inspired woven basket blog hop hack that had a big impact. Disclaimer: I was part of that blog hop and had seen Trish's basket. I was so pleased that she shared it here at HIH.
Who wishes you had more storage space, especially in your laundry room? I thought so; everyone. Well, Hannah of Handmade Weekly came up with a great IKEA hack for adding more storage in that tiny space between your washer and dryer. It's an easy DIY and she gives great instructions.
