Happy New-Year Kristen and thanks for the party!
The new logo is beautiful 🙂
Please note that your link-tool is broken (you should fix it)
Happy New Year to you as well, Winnie! And yes, thank you – had some problems with that linky, but it’s fixed now! Thanks for letting me know it wasn’t working for you 🙂
I want to check out that DIY Microwavable Rice Heating Pad!! I need one of those.
Those microwavable rice heating pads is also the first I am going for because I used to have one and it was awesome. My dog chewed it up and I have been wanting another one and didn’t know how to make it since the other was a gift. There are so many great links here I could spend all day…and probably will!
I could really use that DIY Microwavable Rice Heating Pad for myself, looks like a great idea. I have one but it never works right.
Loving the new look! On my way to check out that pencil holder.
I always look forward to your linky parties! Then I can spend the weekend reading!
Once again, another great link up! I find so many great recipes here each week!
Can I be completely honest for a moment? This is my fave Linky to peek at. I love looking at all the recipes, yum!
Love the new look! Always a great party.
Sounds like a great party. I will check out these sites!
I love the new logos! Very pretty & fun 😀
A peanut butter and jelly mug cake sounds so damn good, I have to try making one of those!
Looks like a great party. Thanks for the amazing share.
