Welcome Home Wednesdays Link Party #77

The Spotlight! That’s right… Features!

These people were extra cool last week… so we’re featuring them this week! That means they get a little time in the spotlight…and a cameo on our social media accounts (if you’ve ever wanted to hangout on my facebook page this is your chance!) Sounds awesome huh?! For your chance to be featured make sure to follow all of your hosts on social media… and leave us a little note so we know you’re following!! Just pop over and leave a comment on Facebook (or Twitter, or Instagram… whichever one is your jam!) We look at every single link so we don’t miss a beat!

Thrift Store Swap</a>!!! This will be our fourth swap so we're really starting to kick this thing into high gear. This round will have even more bloggers than ever before... which means even more projects! I'm so excited!Before we dive right in let's do a quick refresh on how the swap works... each blogger buys 2 thrift store items for under $10 dollars and sends them to the next blogger in the chain! It's one big circle with 15 bloggers and 30 awesome thrift store transformations! <img class="alignnone wp-image-7309" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/howdoesthechallengework.jpg" alt="howdoesthechallengework" width="800" height="400" /> Since this go-round is all about spring we're changing things up just a bit. Each gal will still buy two items but one will be a spring wreath... while the other is still a surprise! I mean we have to keep the mystery alive somehow... just look at the awesome projects that have come from it! <p style="text-align: center;"><a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/2015/07/01/the-thrift-store-swap/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone wp-image-3615" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/graphic4.jpg" alt="The Thrift Store Swap Reveal with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="201" height="598" /></a><a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/2015/09/24/thrift-store-swap-reveal-2/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone wp-image-4971" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Thrift-Store-Swap-2-Coasters-Reveal.jpg" alt="Thrift Store Swap Reveal #2 with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="212" height="598" /></a><a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/2015/09/24/thrift-store-swap-reveal-2/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone wp-image-4972" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Thrift-Store-Swap-2-Lamp-Reveal.jpg" alt="Thrift Store Swap Reveal #2 with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="200" height="598" /></a><a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/2015/12/06/diy-christmas-glitter-house-thrift-store-swap-3/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone wp-image-6253" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Thrift-Store-Swap-3...-Holiday-Edition-.jpg" alt="Thrift Store Swap 3...

So the hubby had a blast (like he always does ;) ) but this was Mom's first trip.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">She had quite the time trying to figure out what we were shopping for! After explaining it a couple times she caught on... and we found a few really awesome items for Kim over at <a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"http://madeinaday.com/" target="_blank">Made in a Day</a>! I mean check this out:</p> <p style="text-align: left;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7310" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/hello.jpg" alt="Spring Shopping for the Thrift Store Swap! with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="800" height="1027" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7303" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/46.jpg" alt="Spring Shopping for the Thrift Store Swap! with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="800" height="1027" /><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7304" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/36.jpg" alt="Spring Shopping for the Thrift Store Swap! with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="800" height="1027" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7302" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/55.jpg" alt="Spring Shopping for the Thrift Store Swap! with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="800" height="1027" /><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7298" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/26.jpg" alt="2" width="800" height="1127" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7299" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/113.jpg" alt="1" width="800" height="1027" /></p> I really loved this little copper pan... I almost bought it for myself! Mom made me put it back though... and since I forgot my purse at home she was bankrolling this shopping trip and therefore had veto power. #dontforgetyourpurse On the other hand I had just enough veto power to tell her no to these little gems... you're welcome Kim! <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7297" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/92.jpg" alt="Spring Shopping for the Thrift Store Swap! with Happily Ever After, Etc." width="800" height="1067" /> I know you're all wondering what I bought for Kim... but you'll just have to wait and see! In the meantime check out some of her other project’s… like this <a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"http://madeinaday.com/2015/08/19/hand-drawn-owl-pillow-arrow-wall-art/" target="_blank">Stenciled Owl Pillow Cover</a>, <a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"http://madeinaday.com/2015/03/10/birch-tree-wall-art/" target="_blank">Birch Tree Wall Art</a> or <a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"http://madeinaday.com/2015/03/25/diy-black-gold-gallery-wall/" target="_blank">DIY Black Gold Gallery Wall.</a> <a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"http://madeinaday.com/2015/08/19/hand-drawn-owl-pillow-arrow-wall-art/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone wp-image-7306" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Hand-Drawn-Pillow-Cover-Fabric-Pens-Cutting-Edge-Stencils-madeinaday.com_1-650x667.jpg" alt="Hand-Drawn-Pillow-Cover-Fabric-Pens-Cutting-Edge-Stencils-madeinaday.com_1-650x667" width="292" height="300" /><img class="alignnone wp-image-7308" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/DIY-Birch-Tree-Wall-Art-Madeinaday.com_-650x515.jpg" alt="DIY-Birch-Tree-Wall-Art-Madeinaday.com_-650x515" width="379" height="300" /></a><a href=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"http://madeinaday.com/2015/03/25/diy-black-gold-gallery-wall/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone wp-image-7307" src=https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/"https://happilyeverafteretc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/DIY-Living-room-makeover-black-gallery-wall-531x800.jpg" alt="DIY-Living-room-makeover-black-gallery-wall-531x800" width="199" height="300" /></a>  " data-jpibfi-post-excerpt="" data-jpibfi-post-url="https://happilyeverafteretc.com/welcome-home-wednesdays-link-party-77/" data-jpibfi-post-title="Welcome Home Wednesdays Link Party #77" data-jpibfi-src="http://www.fivekidsadogandablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Lisas-Pick-4.jpg" data-lazy-src="http://www.fivekidsadogandablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Lisas-Pick-4.jpg" >
