Little Cottage Link Party #42

Welcome to Little Cottage Link Party #42! The sun is finally shining in the South Carolina Lowcountry again! Last week, it rained, and rained, then rained some more. I’ve spent the last 2 days creating a menu for my site. I’m sure I will have to tweak it later, but I’m happy that it’s finished for now. Here’s what I wrote last week:

I’ve always dreamed of being a farmer’s wife. While I don’t see that happening anytime soon, I can live vicariously through my Farmer’s Wife Vignette.

Paint a Flower Pot that Coordinates With Your Dinnerware came from the desire to create a unique centerpiece for my rooster-themed table.

The Little Cottage Link Party is open from Monday, 9am EST, through Thursday, 9am EST (I’m leaving the party open a day longer this year). My goal for this link party is to help myself and others thrive in the home. I’ve spent the last two decades raising five homeschooled children in a beautiful little cottage in the South Carolina Lowcountry. In my opinion, the home is the most important place on earth. It doesn’t matter if you’re married, single, empty-nesting, or raising a large family-your home can still be a refreshing oasis of love and beauty to those who enter.

Time for the Features!

My first feature comes from Jen, a unique blogger who lives in an old four square house. If you live in an older home, and even if you don’t, you should drop into her blog and read some of her fresh, fun content.

I love Marsha’s colorful spring tablescape. She expertly mixes floral fabrics, gingham, and fun plates with different spring words on each one.

The timely printable St. Patrick’s Day Word Search from Pamela is going to be fun for my girls during school tomorrow.

If you’ve seen any of my decor posts, you know that I collect needlework. Amy has a gorgeous collection of samplers, as well as an appreciation for their history and meaning.

Who can resist a good flower pot craft? Not me. I would love to make a Toad Abode for my yard. It won’t be long before we have to start freshening up the porches and flower beds for spring.

I enjoyed Janine’s review of The Clutter Connection. I would love to find out why I organize things in particular ways, and become even more efficient in the process.
