You know that I talk a lot about Pet Hair vacuums — I love them! 

But, I just got this STEAMING PET BRUSH that is so, so awesome! 

My dog, Bailey, loves hers.  It is super quiet.  You just hear a soft hissing because the water you added safely creates gentle steam.  Then you luxuriously brush your pet and the fur it catches is released with a push of a button.    It does not replace having a great vacuum but what a great dog or cat grooming tool!

Happiness is Homemade Party #600

White pumpkin table decorations

Welcome to the Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #600!

 
WHAT A MILESTONE THIS IS!!!
 
I’m Katie from Love My Messy Messy Mess and it is my absolute pleasure to host our #600 blog hop as my last party for the month of August.  
 
Looking back, I realized that I have been a hostess since 2015 – THAT IS 10 YEARS!  I didn’t even realize how long I had been participating.  Not to mention I didn’t even join at the very beginning of the party’s creation, so this party has been going on for a LONG TIME!  It looks like I started with party #88 – holy cow!
 
We’ve had many incredible hostesses over the years and I am proud to say that both myself, Sinea from Ducks ‘n a Row and Linda of A Labour of Life are the longest standing original hostesses – thank you ladies for your time and care!  Beverly from Eclectic Red Barn has also been with us for quite a long time too, maybe at least 8 years, is that right Bev?  
 
We are so happy to have our two newest hostess’ on board – Susan from The Bay To The Beach and Esme of Esme Salon – whose enthusiasm and dedication is bringing a fresh new life to our party!
 
Even though our hosts have changed over the years, one thing still remains the same, our dedication to you – our readers – to bring you new and exciting content every week from your favorite bloggers.  We hope you enjoy exploring our link party as much as we love hosting it for you!

This Week’s Features

 
To involve all of our incredible hostess’ for this monumental party, I’ve asked each to choose one feature to highlight this week.
 
 
 
Linda’s Pick
 

DIY Stretch Velvet Acorns 


I’m pretty sure our resident Canadian blogger’s favorite season is fall – am I right Linda???  She is so crafty and loves a good DIY, so I’m not surprised she picked this DIY Stretch Velvet Acorns tutorial for her feature.  Let us know if you make them!

.

..

 
Sinea’s Pick
 
Chicken Walnut Stuffed Pumpkin
Not only do our hostess’ organize each week’s party but we contribute too!   Linda submitted this post for Chicken Walnut Stuffed Pumpkin and Sinea were all about it!  She especially loves the images Linda shared on her post – bravo!  This looks really tasty Linda, perfect for a single-mom’s dinner!

.

..

Bev’s Pick
 
Pine Cone Decor from Fall to Winter
Our hostess Bev is a HUGE DIY’er and lover of all things outdoors and country, so I’m not surprised she chose this post utilizing Pine Cone Decor from Fall to Winter for her feature.  I love using pinecones in my decor too, Bev!  I even have one hung in the house to help me tell if it’s going to rain that day or not.

.

..

Katie’s Pick (me!)
I love lemonade so much, it’s one of my favorite summer time bevies.  Yes, yes I know summer is over BUT September is WNY where I live can still be quite warm!  So if you are looking to spice up your lemonade before it starts to get cold, try making this Electric Lemonade.  

 

Susan’s Pick

As a newly single mom of three I am always looking for cheap and quick ways to decorate, and with Halloween being one of my FAVORITE holidays, I know that this post Susan chose will come in real handy – Budget Friendly DIY Ghost Decor.  You don’t have to spend hours or a small fortunate to making things look festive!

.

..

 
Esme’s Pick
 

 

.This recipe looks so heart-warming and mouth-watering to me.  I know that soup season is upon us but I’m always down for a delicious chicken dish.  Esme chose this recipe for Apricot Chicken with Truffle Oil Mustard and I’m not going to lie – I’m adding truffle oil to next week’s grocery list to try this one out!

.

..

.

THANK YOU, LADIES, FOR HOSTING WITH ME THIS WEEK AND HELPING SELECT THE FEATURES!

Fall is coming and my dog’s fur has started to shed, bigtime! I wonder if it is possible to predict the winter to come based on dog fur?  If so, we may have a cold winter on the way! LOL

Seriously, I love dogs and will always have one but I also love my vacuum cleaner.  It does such a great job cleaning up all that pet hair.  Makes life easier!

I love my PET HAIR Vacuum!

Well, here we are in the final week of August 2025 and one more month of summer for the northern hemisphere.  Are you like me that September 1st spells “fall” to you?  We are well on our way to autumn but it does not begin until September 22nd.  There are still about 4 weeks left.  I find that to be great news!

Now, enjoy our latest features and new party!  And, thank you so much for joining us.❤️

Boujee Fall Candle Hack
I am very much so in my candle era here at Starry Acres.  One of my nightly rituals is to make a yummy cup of tea and light a bunch of yummy candles to enhance my space not only with their luscious scent but with their beautiful light.  This tutorial for a Boujee Fall Candle Hack will help me enjoy my candles even more.  Or, how about these for Thanksgiving hostess gifts or Christmas gifts?

I planted sunflower seeds very late in my garden this year and a few of them are just to bloom.  I know my almost 4-year-old will be thrilled when they open!  This  Paper Plate Sunflower Craftwill be so fun for her to make her own sunflower.

I am a hot beverage drinker – coffee in the morning and tea in the evening.  I’m always on the hunt for new hot coffee/tea like bevies to try and I was fascinated by this post on How To Make Baobab Coffee.  Doesn’t this look delicious?
