So sorry that I didn’t get any features out this weekend
. Hurricane Sandy added to my workload and I wasn’t able to get everything accomplished that I’d hoped to. As I type this, I’m watching water drip from my kitchen bay window. My craft room has sprouted several new “water features” and there is a leak in the kitchen window. Other than a few leaks, we are safe and comfortable and currently have power (although many in our city do not). I’m posting early tonight so that you all can be sure to link up! If our power remains on, Tutes & Tips Not to Miss will be live tomorrow. XOXO and stay safe East Coast!

Thanks for hosting a great party! Pray that everyone in the path of the storm is safe….
Oh no … stay safe Beth! Thank you for hosting.
Thanks so much for hosting! Glad you still have power, but wish your house weren’t sprouting new water features. We are not in the hardest hit areas, but still in the path and still have power as well. So glad, it makes it easier. Take care and stay safe.
I love this blog. Beth is so inspiring. I try and do a small, sometimes VERY small diy project every weekend! I post a lot on my twitter. Follow me @lindsayhintz
I know the feeling! My skylight in my kitchen has turned into a waterfall…the joys of the “Frankenstorm.” Hope you and your family stay safe. Thanks for hosting the link party and giving us something else to think about other than the weather!
Thanks for hosting Beth! By the way, your blog looks beautiful! And stay safe and dry!

Love the new look on the blog
I thinking about all of you in Sandy’s path. Please stay safe!
Stay safe Beth! Sorry to hear about the leaks… We also have some water coming in through our basement door but as long as we have power, I am not going to complain.
BTW, the right side of the linky thumbnails are cut off on my screen. Not sure if anyone else is having this issue but I wanted to let you know.
Thanks for hosting! Hope you are staying safe in the storm. The new blog design looks great!
Love the new look!! Be safe!
Thanks for hosting Beth! I hope you’re staying somewhat dry in Philly. xo Jenna

Hi Beth. Thank you for hosting. I hope your house doesn’t spring any more leaks! All of us down South sure are keeping y’all in our prayers.
So sorry to hear about your leaks. We’ve gotten about 7 inches of rain so far, and we are just waiting for the power to go out with all this wind happening. Stay safe and thanks for hosting. Megan

A new water feature? Oh dear! I pray that y’all are safe and well.
After missing a week or two, I’m glad to be back with you this week. I think I’m Link number 180-something, but better late than never! I’m proud to be linking up my new gallery wall of mirrors. Thank you for hosting this party and giving us a place to share our work!
Hope all is OK for you and your family! Stay safe! Hugs…Debbie
