Home Matters Linky Party #116!

…

We hope you are having a happy Christmas season! Thank you for joining us this week to share and enjoy the awesome inspiration and creativity. Sadly, we are saying goodbye to Crystal as co-host. She has been with us for a year and we are going to miss her. Thank you for all you have done Crystal! We also say goodbye to Randi and Lindsey and wish them the best of luck in their future endeavors! We wanted to let you know that this is the last party of the year. Home Matters will be taking a break to enjoy the Holidays with our family, but we will be back better than ever on January 6, 2017 ready to party! We want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Home Matters Linky Party Guidelines:

We are thrilled that you came by to link up today! Here are a few rules that hosts and co-hosts of the Home Matters Party follow, and we ask that you follow them, as well.

1. Please link up no more than THREE posts each week–try to make sure that they are new links that you have not shared here previously. (Exception: Holiday/Seasonal specific posts may be shared once per year.)

2. Please take some time to poke around and visit some of the other links.

3. Please take some time to check out your hosts and co-hosts on social media.

4. We appreciate the variety of blogs on the www; however, the Home Matters Party is for links on matters of the HOME. Please link accordingly.

5. We ask that you do not add other Linky Parties, Blog Hops, or Giveaways–unless you begin the party with a new project, recipe or post.

6. On the same note, please do not add links of an extremist, political or strong controversial nature. (The hosts and co-hosts read each and every blog post linked, and will contact you directly if you have linked something that does not fit into the realm of the party.)

With your help, we can continue to grow the Home Matters Party! Thank you!
