Welcome to this week’s Happiness is Homemade link party. This party is dedicated to things we call “home.” Whether it is that homemade recipe that everyone “oohs” and “ahs” over or learning how to paint a picture for the first time, this blog party celebrates creative fun. As always, we select a few special posts from the previous get-together to feature on the current party. The new posts are displayed after that!

Our party host for the month of July is me, Sinea from Ducks ‘n a Row, and this week I selected our features with variety in mind. Home décor – delicious desserts – fun activity for kids – and art! So stay for a while and look around.
