Welcome To You're Gonna Love It~Anything Goes!

Happy New Year!  I hope everyone made it through the holidays fit & fine?  It was quiet here.  We did actually stay up until midnight this year!  We got sucked into a Netflix binge and Mr. B & I toasted in 2016 with a glass of wine and the promise to make this "Our Year"! No hoping, we ARE going to make it happen!  2015 was too hard of year and we just want it gone and get on to better things!  One of my goals is to start posting recipes, crafts and other stuff again.  I've missed blogging and I need this part of my creative side!  I need YOU!  Yep, that is exactly what I need and I am going to make it happen!  Also, if you follow me on Facebook  you have noticed I haven't been doing the fun game, Pass or Buy, in awhile.  Well, I am bringing it back! Starting this Thursday I will be posting photos from Estate Sales and asking you if you would pass on it or buy it.  It's a hoot to see all of your comments about what I find and I can't wait to begin sharing again with you.

But now, we are here to see what you have been up to and this week, being the first party of the month, it's Anything Goes!  That means you can link up ANYTHING! Anything family friendly that is.  Photos, crafts, Etsy shops, giveaways, contests, whatever!  Sot let's get the first party of 2016 going now!

It's Time For 

The Features of the Week

Last weeks' most viewed link comes via Andrea at Scrapality!

Andrea took a single pallet and made this sweet table as a gift for her mother to put in front of her window.  I love seeing a frugal project made with love and I just know her mom is delighted with this gift!

My pick of the week is another wood project and a gift for some deserving friends from Little Miss Dexterous

I love how these bottle openers can be customize for different friends! Such a fun and really, an easy gift anytime of the year!

If you have been featured here, or over at my  co-host Kim's blog, (she has a different Pick of the Week so go check it out...was it you?) make sure to grab an I've Been Featured button here.

Just a reminder: IF you follow me on Facebook you get first notice of this party going live each week. Plus, I share some pretty funny and awesome stuff on my page over there too (like my love for coffee)!

Now for this week's link-up! 

Feel free to link up anything you have created (recipes, decor, crafts, written or photographed). Anything you are so proud of you just gotta share it with others. It is the first Tuesday of the month so ANYTHING GOES!!  (Etsy shops, giveaways, contests...you name it!) 

You can follow Kim and I on social media, but it is not required. (We want you to follow us because you want to, not because you have to.)

We would love it if you would link back in some way so that others come and party with us. Either grab the party button or add my blog link to your post or on your blog party page. But again, it's not required.

As always, the links are in random order so that your submission(s) gets a great chance of getting seen!
