Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop 43

September 29, 2013 by Carrie

What a week we had!  The hubby and I went to a church retreat.  It was a great chance to get away, spend time with Jesus, and reconnect with friends.  Events like these are always challenging and fun for my faith.  We were totally worn out by the time we got home!

Thanks for joining me and Jordan from Lily White. Designs, Amy From A Blossoming Life, Sara from Sneaky Spoons, and Katie from The Casual Craftlete.

Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop

Here’s my featured posts from last week:

Rain On A Tin Roof linked up this adorable Navy and White Chevron Tray.  Did you know that there is a painter’s tape shaped in chevron?  I was super excited to find that out in this post.  Check out her project for all the details!

Child at Heart linked up an idea that I thought was GREAT: How To Host A Craft Party…and not spend a ton.

Obsessive and Creative linked up this Red Striped Table project.  She found this table in a ditch and gave it new life.  I think that deserves some applause!
