The Patriotic Summer Blog Hop : Recap Weeks 1 & 2

Hi there! So as many of you have heard, I have joined up with more than 30 AMAZING bloggers to tackle the challenge of creating a patriotic project or recipe without using the traditional red, white and blue color scheme! We've got new posts everyday until July 4th, and as promised, I've included a round up of the first two weeks below. Before you head out, be sure to check out the projects that were shared the last two weeks AND be sure to enter for your chance to win a $310 Target Gift Card by using the Rafflecopter at the end of the post!

The Patriotic Summer Blog Hop

Hey guys! I've finally got more information on the super awesome super exciting blog event that's going down this month...

Making Monday Link Party

Hello summer friends! Hope y'all are gearing up to kick off your summer with some fun new projects and you better share them with us!!

Welcome to this week's Making Monday link party.

A Break and Stuff

As many of you have probably noticed, I've been on a bit of a break since Anthro Week. That event wore me out! Plus, you know, there's been work and the end of the semester and just life in general. Anywho, I've got a few fun things planned, including a super fun blog hop/event thingy for July 4th. I'm joining 33 of my fellow bloggers (I KNOW. I just can't handle the amount of awesome that happens when 34 bloggers team up) to bring you a boat load of tutorials that don't use the standard red, white, and blue. Interested? I know I am! Stay tuned for more information, and happy crafting! :) 

6 Months of Blogging

Today marks my sixth month of blogging, which is supremely exciting. Yay! Below I've compiled a list of some of my favorite moments as a new blogger, including some of my most popular posts, and what I hope to accomplish in the next six months. 

Anthro Knock-off Week is coming soon!

You. Guys. I have the announcement of the century. I can't even. 

I'm so so so excited to tell you all that I've teamed up with a group of super talented bloggers to bring you Anthropologie Knock-off Week. "What's that" you ask? Yeah, it's what you think it is. Every day during the last week of April, each blog will be bringing you a brand new Anthro Knock-off tutorial. "Say what? Like, everyday?" Yeah, every day. That's 5 daily   tutorials chalk full of awesome sauce and gleaming with creativity. Is that even possible? I'm not 100 percent, but based on the sneak peeks I've been seeing, I think yes. Get excited! We'll also have a pinterest board where you can see the inspiration with every final project all in one place, and on the very last day (Saturday) we'll be having a themed link party. 

The week begins April 27th. See ya then!

A Few Blog Design Tips & Tricks

Hello everyone! So today I want to take a moment to blog about...blogging. Over the last few weeks, I've spent a LOT of time learning about my template and how to change things. First lesson: HTML is freakin complicated. Second lesson: There's usually an easier way to do things. I've found simple solutions to some of my biggest questions, and decided to share them here with you in an effort to promote fabulous blogging.

The Liebster Award

I've been nominated for a Liebster award! While it may not come with a cool prize, it is a super fun opportunity to meet and network with other new-ish bloggers. I was nominated by  Slightly Hippie Housewife of Suburbia. Thanks Jen! In this post, I'll also share my nominations - they're great blogs that I love reading, and I hope you all will love them too!
