Julia, of Hooked on Houses, one of my favourite bloggers of all times (you will love her fun, thoughtful blog, as in makes you think...about homes!) is/was hosting a link party to showcase what we are all hooked on. Of course I am a bit late (as is my nature), but I wanted to join in the fun, especially because I am coming up a bit dry for post topics here. I have been busy with a house project, which I will show you later in the week (have I ever told you how much I hate painting?), so my mind is on that and the need to get a few Halloween decorations up for Sophie. I have been a bit lazy this year, and have not put a single Halloween thing up, but my little one deserves her mummy to be every bit of the Halloween decorating nut I was when the boys were small. So, I will get to it...soon!!
Well, since it is nearly Halloween, and Christmas is right around the corner, my crush is, was and will always be glitter! I have slowly replaced much of my Halloween and Christmas decor with festive, glittered beauties, and I cannot seem to help myself from squealing in delight when I spy a good, glittered find. In fact, just today, I scored the most exquisite Christmas decoration (and it's big!) and it was a find that made my day...defined the tone of it, really. How could I not have a great day when I discovered such a sparkly gem?! I will not show it to you until I actually bring it out for Christmas, but I assure you, it is "fabulous"!!

Hey, better late to a party than never, I say! Thanks for playing along. These glittery, sparkly things are so fun. I think they bring out the child in us. They're so pretty!
I swear your blog header is different every time I stop by. This one is cute, too! :-)
Love this cute header!
You've been hooked on glitter forever, Linda! I always love to see what you've created around the holidays. Okay, off to visit Julia for a minute.
Oh my you are painting , what could it be , I am on the edge of my seat.
Glitter and beads! Love Em!!!
Good morning! Glitter is becoming the new 'in' isn't it? I just adore it too. I noticed all the colors Martha Stewart has at Michaels and actually squealed when I saw she has a variety package of most of the colors. Yipppeeee, what shall we glitterize today? You should start a "GLITTER POSSE" and have everyone post their glitter ideas or projects, a Glitter Party! Yippeee it sounds like fun!

i am not sure if it was obvious enough but i was hooked on fabric.
your site is looking so beautiful for fall. the glittery pumpkins are so pretty.
Hi! Don't know if they have Dollar Tree stores across the border, but they have some wonderful GLITTERY $1 decorations this year! Hope you have them so you can check them out. The glittery deer was a beautiful find, by the way!
They sprung it on me , today my segment will air , CBC , here at 1:00 and 2:00pm , could take advantage of the paper idea , that is disappointing.
Dazzling!
I love the glitter. I have just started using glitter, and I have to say it is pretty addictive!
Those are so pretty!!! Wait, I am posting right next to your fairy door, I never noticed that before...it's precious!!!

I am afraid I have been bitten by the glitter bug this year too. Those acorns are darling, would be perfect with our rustic theme here. I so enjoyed Matthew's article in BHG this month, never know what he will come up with next!
Love your blog, full of inspiration. Staging homes has to be such fun, I've thought of doing it myself. I am adding you to my blogroll feel free to visit me, Cheryl
