Share Your Style Link Party #189


Good evening everyone and welcome to Share Your Style 189!  I'm Carol from The Red Painted Cottage and I'll be your host tonight.



I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas and that you were able to spend it with your loved ones.  I'm sure some of you have already taken down your Christmas tree and are ready to move on, while others of us are still admiring our lights and decorations.  I also want to let you know that I'll be leaving Share Your Style after this party.  I hope many of you will continue to stop by and see what's happening at The Red Painted Cottage.

Please try stopping by and visiting everyone on our Style team.


It would also be wonderful if you could follow us on all our social media:

Because I'm taking time off through the holidays, I haven't shared anything recently on my blog.  However with New Years Eve coming up, I have two older posts I think you might enjoy.



A few features I've chosen to end 2018 with...


Rain on a Tin Roof shares how to make these adorable wagons out of crates.  She's using them here as Christmas decor, but young children would probably love playing with them and storing some of their stuffed animals inside them. 


I happen to love all things miniature, especially dollhouses.  So it's no surprise that I should feature A Debbie Dabble's Christmas home tour of her Victorian dollhouse.  She'll take you room by room and show you how she decorated it for Christmas.  One of these days I'll have to share my own dollhouse with everyone.


If you're looking for ideas to use on your New Years Eve dinner table, look no further than Debbees Buzz.  She created this stunning celestial tablescape to ring in the New Year!  Can you imagine sitting with your family or friends to ring in the New Year at this table!


Have you ever been to New York City?  Mary from The Boondocks Blog, recently moved here from Greece and often shares her new city with everyone; including her latest post about the spectacular tree at Rockefeller Center.  I've been here in the middle of summer, but I would love to visit here during the Christmas season and see the ice skating rink and lights during this time of year.  


Crafting A Family shares her recipe for an easy and quick breakfast overnight French toast casserole.  After reading through this, I know I'll be making this sometime we have overnight guests. It looks and sound delicious!

We want to wish everyone a very Happy and Healthy New Year for 2019!




Now let's party!

Share Your Style Link Party #188


Good evening and welcome to our 188th SYS link party! This week your party host is Lynn, from the blog The Vintage Nest


We are so thrilled you all dropped by again to party with us! Christmas is just around the corner and this is definitely the place to find some amazing inspiration.  I spent hours pouring over your wonderful link posts and it was so hard to just pick a few to share this week with our readers.

Before we get started, please make sure to pay a visit to all of your SYS team members!

~~~~ A few of my Favorites ~~~~

Orphans with Makeup gives us an excellent tutorial on making some handmade "vintage" ornaments.  These are just gorgeous!  thank you Mary for this inspiration.




Rever en Couleur (Dream in Color) shares her kitchen brick wall transformation and it's beautiful.  Years ago, I whitewashed my brick fireplace and have never regretted and get so many compliments.  If you have been thinking of doing it.....Just do it!



Marty, a long long time friend on blogger, puts a spin on Christmas decor with her gorgeous rusty orange theme.  She explains how she did it very inexpensively.  Click on over to see this non-traditional theme at her blog A Stroll Thru Life.




Are you looking for a last minute, easy, inexpensive, personalized gift? The blog H2O Bungalow shares her tutorial on how to add words to a candle.  These are just so charming.



Finally, this post really really captured my heart.  When my children were little, a holiday tradition was the making of the gingerbread house and on New Year's Eve, they got to "destroy" it and eat wasn't what as hard as a brick.  They thought that was the grandest thing!  The blog Home Cooking Memories shares with us what could easily become a new tradition.  How fun and delicious is this?  A gingerbread house milkshake recipe.


 Congratulations to all of this week's featured bloggers. If you have been featured please make sure to grab our cute feature button to proudly display on your blog.

    Share Your Style Link Party #187

    Good evening and welcome to our 187th SYS link party! This week your party host is me, Barbara, from the blog 21 Rosemary Lane.


    We are so thrilled you all dropped by again to party with us! Christmas is just around the corner and this is definitely the place to find some amazing inspiration. 

    Before we get started, please make sure to pay a visit to all of your SYS team members!

    Since I haven't posted an official Christmas tour for this year, I decided to let you all in on some of what I have been up to over the past couple weeks.

    The front porch is themed with a red and black buffalo check.


    The entry way is sporting more red and a classic plaid.


    And in the living room I went with traditional red and white. A candy cane inspired ribbon I found at Michael's kicked off the entire look, so it went right on the tree! (And on the mirror!)

    Fun right???

    Gosh you just gotta love Christmas!!!

    Well now it is on to...

    There were so many fabulous links from last week that it was terribly difficult to choose just a few to highlight. So without further ado here were go...

    First up is a gorgeous Christmas home tour from Kristy over at her beautiful blog Starfish Cottage.


    Melissa from the blog Dancing Dog Cabin shared her rustic and beautifully done Christmas at the Cabin home tour. 


    Clean & Scentsible blogger Jen linked up her tutorial on how to make this adorable Hot Chocolate Gift Ornament.


    Raquel from her corner of blogland known as Organized Island, shared an Easy Faux Eggnog recipe. It's a no cook recipe plus it is non-alcoholic, so the kiddies can join in the fun too!


    And finally from Taryn Whiteaker, a Free Geometric Christmas Printable.


    And that's a wrap! Congratulations to all of this week's featured bloggers. If you have been featured please make sure to grab our cute feature button to proudly display on your blog.

    Share Your Style Link Party #186


    Welcome to week #186 of Share Your Style! This week, Meredith from Southbound Blog is your host.

    A graphic image of the Share Your Style linkup logo.

    Hi everyone! I' so excited to be hosting this week!  The Christmas season is one of my favourite times of the year, and since it's the first week of December.. no one can tell me anymore that it's too early to start kicking off the season!  Truthfully, it's never too early - and my decor starts going up early November :)
    Before we get started, I want to encourage you to pay these talented bloggers a visit: 


    I'm sure I can speak for all of us when I say we would love for you to follow us on our blogs and social media. It's a great way to keep up with the latest and get to know us.






     

    To get started with the holiday theme I'm going with this week, here's a recent project I shared of a super simple, DIY Glitter Believe sign that was made with NO POWER TOOLS!

    https://southbound.blog/diy/diy-glitter-believe-sign/

    You can view the full tutorial here, along with 5 other Budget Holiday decor projects!

     Thank you to everyone who links up with us each week - I absolutely love getting to sit down with a cup of coffee and look through all of the amazing projects that are shared with us. And now, onto my favourite posts from last week!

    https://dining-delight.blogspot.com/2018/11/christmas-fireplace.html

    I absolutely love this Christmas Fireplace display from Dining Delight!  I almost went with a red buffalo check theme for my decor this year, but ended up going the complete opposite direction with white + rose gold, so I'm obsessed with how this one turned out!  I think this will be my theme for next year.

    https://www.5minutesformom.com/141523/driftwood-christmas-tree-craft/

    How adorable is this Driftwood Christmas Tree from Five Minutes for Mom? I love adding natural elements into decor and can't get enough of the coastal look! It's a bonus that this is a SUPER SIMPLE craft to make!

    https://walkingonsunshinerecipes.com/mason-jar-hot-chocolate/

    I find that one of the easiest gifts to buy or make is a selection of hot chocolate!  Not everyone likes tea or coffee, but I don't think I've ever met anyone who could turn down a nice cup of hot chocolate! I really want to make some of these Mason Jar Hot Chocolate sets for gift exchanges!  Thank you to Walking on Sunshine for sharing.

    https://www.suburbansimplicity.com/chocolate-covered-marshmallow-reindeer/

    How cute are these Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Reindeer?! They look so adorable AND delicious!  I think they'd also be delicious when made with peanut butter balls for the heads, if you're not a huge fan of marshmallows. Thank you Suburban Simplicity for sharing!

    https://playdatesparties.com/12-days-holiday-candy-holiday-truffles-boozy-twist/

    I sense a bit of a food theme (on top of the Christmas theme!) this week - but these boozy holiday truffles from Play Dates to Parties sound delicious.  You know how great truffles are to begin with.. and boozy ones?? Sign me up!
