Little Cottage Link Party #5

Little Cottage Link Party #5

Welcome to the 5th Little Cottage Link Party! We’re done with the homeschooling year here at the Little Cottage, and everyone is ready to start summer break. My husband and I just celebrated our 30th anniversary, and went on a little trip to historic Savannah. Read A Trip to Historic Savannah for Our 30th Anniversary here.

Jennifer Wise, from Life Tales Books has graciously allowed me to take over her beloved Heart & Soul Link Up. The party will be open from 9:00 am (EST) on Mondays until 9:00 am (EST) on Wednesdays.

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.

Now, for the features from Little Cottage Link Party #4!

The three most viewed features were a mixed bag this time. They included a floral bunting birthday card, a wall of vintage family photos, and a front porch all decked out for summer.

My personal pick from last week is May 2019 Thrifts and a Stenciled Sign, from A Vintage Green

Congratulations to all the featured bloggers!

*To all you link party lovers out there: It is helpful to have a search box at the top of your blog so that readers and party hosts like me can easily find and copy the link to feature your post. It is a must if you use Instagram, because the link in your profile will take the reader to your most recent blog post only. Then, if you don’t have a search box, the reader will have to scroll down to find the post they’re hoping to read. Also, a Pinterest plug-in that allows others to pin your posts is a great idea too. My site doesn’t allow me to add plug-ins, so I sent my hosts a message, and they added the Pinterest plug-in for me. The plug-in places a tiny Pinterest logo in the corner of all your blog pictures. If someone clicks on your photo, it takes them to Pinterest, where they can save your picture (which is automatically connected to your blog) to the desired board. It’s a great way to generate more traffic to the posts you work hard to write.

The Rules:

Please link up all posts related to the home. Recipes, DIY, Homeschooling, Upcycle Projects, Family Trips, and Decor posts are welcome. Lifestyle posts are okay too as long as they are related to the home.
