Friday Favorites – Week 315 – With DIY Projects

Hello everyone! Welcome to this week’s Friday Favorites party!  I’m a little late this evening and normally when I’m late, it’s because I’ve had a busy work week or had a lot going on at home, but tonight, it comes down to one simple reason…I HAD to watch the finale of American Idol! Haha!  It’s one of the only shows I watch on a regular basis, and I’ve been a fan since the beginning.  I’m sad to see it go, but it was an amazing show tonight.  Getting excited about seeing my favorite contestants from the past made me feel like a teenager!  Haha!  Anyway…that’s what I’ve been up to this evening!  Now let’s see what everyone else is up to!

First off, we have some great DIY projects: We have jewelry storage, an upcycle project, and a little bit of carpentry work!  What a great mix!

And then as always, we have a little linky which I would LOVE for you to add your recipe and project links to!

Friday Favorites – Week 306 – Giveaway Winner and Brief Announcement

Happy Friday everyone! I’m so sorry this party is late! My dad had surgery this week, so I’ve barely been on my computer all week long, and then this morning I got up with plans to post the party, and I actually had to take our son to the doctor, and you know how that goes!

Anyway, with all that being said, I’m not posting features this week. Instead I’m just going to make a few announcements.  First off, I have a winner from last week’s giveaway.  Congratulations to Lynda from Reviews, Chews, & How-Tos!  She won a lovely handbag and teapot from Pavilion Gifts.

And my second announcement is that we will soon be adding another hostess or two to the party!  I’ll be doing an official announcement and have a form posted next week for those who’d like to apply. (I hope!)  But if you have any questions about that or if you’d like to go ahead and express interest, I welcome you to contact me via email at simplysweethome@hotmail.com.
