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!
Remember that we absolutely love each and every one of you… which means that we love to share your work! By linking up with us you are giving the hosts permission to share one photo and link in round-ups and on our social media channels! Plus you might just get featured below, pretty sweet huh?

The Rules are there ain’t no Rules!
We ain’t your Mama… so we don’t have a strict rules list. View this more as party etiquette!
1. Be kind! Read and comment on your fellow party goers links!
2. We like to think we’re super fancy… we want our guests to feel fancy too so no link-party or affiliate links please!
3. If you want to be featured please follow your hosts on social media… then link back to the party with a text link… or our fabulous button!
4. Link to a specific post… not your home page! We want to see what you’ve been up to this week!
5. Our mama’s taught us to share… that includes the limelight! No more than 3 links per person please!
6. That’s it! Have fun and link up your best stuff! We can’t wait to see it!
7 Gals, 7 Blogs & 1 Great Party! Link up once to appear on 7 Amazing Blogs!
Want to come back next week? We’ll send you a reminder… just put your email in the box!
Thanks so much for Stopping by!
Like any good hosts we’re sitting right by the present table waiting until our guests leave so we can go through the loot… the loot being your links! We can’t wait to check out what you’ve left for us. Trust me there will be a lot of pinning, tweeting and facebook sharing going on in the near future… we can’t wait to show off what you’ve left!
Psst…
I love your posts so much that one feature a week just isn’t cutting it! Stick around to see all my favorite features every Saturday… right here at Happily Ever After, Etc! Not sure what I mean? Check out last weeks DIY based Fantastic Finds Saturday!
