The Art of Home-Making Mondays ~ Please Join Us ~ Link Up #98

"And when he comes, he finds it swept and put in order."

~  Luke 11:25

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 and leave some comment love

for a few of our features from last week's link up!
In addition, I thought it would be fun to feature all of the SPRING CLEANING posts which were shared last week for some extra homemaking inspiration:



Since we all think differently, it pays to have a variety of homemaking tools to choose from!

1. My Spring Cleaning Plan + Free Printable Checklist by Artful Homemaking

2. Spring Cleaning List Printable by Faithful With the Little

3. Spring Cleaning Checklist by The Traveler's Nest

4. Cleaning Collection of 10-Step Inspiration by me (I hope it is not too tacky to include my own post! :)

1. How to Protect Your Plants From Frost by Hillsborough Homesteading ~ Great gardening tips that can also be used for autumn gardens! 

2. Biblical Domesticity by Finding Joy in the Everyday ~ Love how Jo shares the difference between regular homemaking and biblical homemaking! It does matter! 

3. 20 Ways to Re-Use Kitty Litter Buckets by Oak Hill Homestead ~ I always appreciate a good recycling post to help run our farm more efficiently for less. 

4. Patient Enough to Homeschool by No Idle Bread ~ Stacie shares a humorous but heartfelt post on the truth about mothers who homeschool (this speaks much of my own personal patience-less experience and I say this with a smile!)

5. Blooming Spring Wreath by HMC ~ Monique shares a gorgeous spring wreath with us that will truly delight you! So whimsical and lovely!

In other news, I have been working on making the switch for this blog's printables to Google Docs since so many had troubles with the last program. Our latest addition is our lavender cleaning product recipes and labels. Happy housecleaning!
