Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #401

Messy Messy Fail - I purchased Halloween gingerbread houses for the boys last year when they were on sale to do this year.  Broke them out a week ahead of time to put together - they REFUSED to stay together!  I "reglued" them 2x each and they still fell apart.  I'm done.  

Tidy Victory - I bought a fresh Minion gingerbread house and I'll be decorating that one MYSELF for Christmas. :D

Welcome to Happiness Is Homemade Party #401

Happy Sunday. I hope that your weekend is going well. We are almost half way through November. I always wish that this time of the year that it would go slowly, but it never does. 

For now I am focusing on Thanksgiving and then I will begin to decorate for Christmas. Are you decorating for Christmas or do you wait until after Thanksgiving?

For the features this week, I choose a mixture of things, I hope you enjoy them.

This week's features:

I had to pick this Toadstool Painting from our very own Katie. She gives a complete tutorial on how to make one yourself. I must admit that she makes it seem easy. I would definitely try this, but I am certain, mine would not look like Katie's. 

 

I harvested a lot of lavender this fall and now I have plenty of ideas for things to make with the lavender. Stop by and see all 7 ideas for lavender. 

This Spiral Apple Bread has me drooling. I think I could eat the whole thing. I can almost smell those apples. Stop by Trick and Treat to get the recipe and make one yourself. 

Are these Turkey Napkins just so adorable? Our very own Linda, from a Labor of Love teaches you how to make these special napkins that you can use for your table. You will amaze everyone I am sure.

How about a delicious dessert to have after your Thanksgiving meal? These Pumpkin Toffee Bars would be a great dessert treat that everyone would love. Stop by the Lou Lou Girls for the recipe.
