“Some old-fashioned things like fresh air and sunshine are hard to beat. In our mad rush for progress and modern improvements let's be sure we take along with us all the old-fashioned things worth while.”

Life on the Farm and in the Country, Making a Home

There are so many wonderful features in the making of a home. This is a place where I would love for you to share your love for anything home-related. Homemaking, homeschooling and homesteading are all a part of the lovely art of home-making!

~~Please link up posts in the spirit of Titus 2 and Proverbs 31 (such as recipes, godly encouragement, DIY's, frugal living, child-raising, medicine making, preparedness, gardening, home decoration, school lessons, sewing, crafts, etc).~~ You are welcome to share as many posts as you like!

* Please visit a few of our features from last week's link up: *

1. Making a Wool Pom Pom Wreath {Compliments of the Sheep} by Clearwater Farm ~ What a neat project that she fashioned from her own wool! How special is that!

2. How to Make Soothing Oatmeal Bath Bags by Alba Rosa ~ What a luxurious but simple bath product! Just the thought of using it relaxes me :)

3. DIY Cake Stand by Reviews, Chews and How-To's ~ This easy-to-make and budget friendly cake stand is on my to-do list. So many options for this $2 project!

4. How to Keep Your Outfits Modest & Stylish by Reflections of the Heart ~ This young lady shares some excellent tips on modest dressing in this modern day culture. Both mothers and daughters will benefit from these ideas. Though the style is a bit young for me, the concepts still work! :)
