Mark your calendar because it's time for my Holiday Open House!
Next Tuesday (December 16th), plan on linking up with a holiday post. No rules. It can be anything...Christmas decorating, a holiday project, a tradition, maybe a recipe (every party needs food, right?)...
There will be presents too! For you! I'll randomly pick some winners from all the party-goers and commenters and send you something made with my very own hands.
All I ask is that you link directly to your holiday post (not your main page) and that you link back to the party from your post (an old one or a new one). You can use one of the buttons below.
I can't wait to see all of the holiday goodness that you bring to the party!
If you want to help spread the word, you can grab a button for your post or for your sidebar.
Aren't the buttons adorable? Amy from Living Locurto made them for me and I swear she crawled around inside my head and figured out exactly what I wanted.
Sound good? Are you coming?

Happy Holidays!

I can't wait to participate!
Hey- is there an easy way to put buttons on your blog? I find it challenging figuring on where to put them in the template. Can you put them in your post?
Off to figure out how to use the snow blower.
Sounds fun..I'll be there!
WEll, yes, I think I will! This is my first visit to your blog, but sister I'll be back! So fun!!

I'm with Astrid...I can figure out how to include the link in the contents of a blog, but not how to post in the gadgets/sidebar.....any tutorials in your bag of tricks? I did link in my post today about the Open house coming up! Looking forward to it!

I will be there! :-) I just added your button to my blog. Merry Christmas!
Yes, yes, yes, I will be there...and if there is really a Santa at the North Pole, I will win that monogrammed muslin pretty...I get the giggles just thinking about it ;)

PS: Amy rocks!
Amy Rocks!
Love that you are giving presents and LoVe the button!
Can't wait for the open house--now i need to clean! Just kidding--I'm not cleaning for that--I'll just push everything to the side!
Fun times! I'll be there!
Gotta love a virtual Open House, because you can photograph one area and only clean that 4 x 4 spot, or whatever.....dim lights equal no dirt....!
Thanks for the instructions to add the button, but when I paste in the html, it says I have invalid characters......um, what they heck? How do they know I anything about my character????;)
Suzanne
Ooooh, I can't wait!! I love a good PARTAY!!!!
I added your adorable button - Amy did a GREAT job!!
~Tidymom
Yay! Will "be here" with bells on!
Yep Kimba~ consider this my RSVP hun! ;) I already know what I want to do!!! How fun!!!
Merry December~ Les
Ooh, ooh, I'm so excited! I just took a BUNCH of pictures last night and was stressing about getting them posted now, but I can wait until Tuesday! I don't know why, but our tree photographed really prettily (is that even correct grammar?) this year. All sparkly and stuff. I'm not done with it, so I'll have to take some more pictures. Oh, darn.
But BooMama is doing the same thing on the 15th...
can't wait to play along! What a fun idea!
you know i will be there! grabbing that button now! :) woohooo!!
Anonymous,
I know! Isn't it great! I love that the blogging world has so much room for everyone to play.
We can party all week with Boo Mama (cause that's how long it will take to get through all of her links) and you all can come to my slightly more intimate gathering on Tuesday, if you're so inclined.
I don't know Boo Mama personally but I suspect she would agree. She is so kind and gracious. Not to mention fun and downright fabulous.
I'll be at her party and I might pee my pants with excitement if she came to mine.
Kimba
Amy from Living Locurto rocks! Your buttons are adorable. Neat idea on your open house!
I'll be there with bells on.
Thanks, Kimba.
Yay, I'm coming-can't wait!
Looks like fun! Can't wait
Oooooh, squeeeeee! I'm in. I can't wait to see everyone's stuff.
That's a cute button! I'll be there, can't say my house will be ready, but I will! ha.
I'm in too! I'll be at Boo Mama's party too. I agree Kimba. Isn't it wonderful that in the virtual world you can be at two parties at once??
:)
I will definatley be there! Going to add your button to my sidebar now!
Great idea Kimba!
Diane
Oh, thank you for the invite.
I'm off to add the button :)
I can't wait, this sounds so fun...will there be a prize too for whoever is clearly STRESSED out....ok I'm just kidding...this is all fun!
Blessings,
Debbie

Sounds fun!

Count me in, I'll be there and I'm taking a button with me!!
A party? And I'm invited? And I get to be showoff?? Of course I'll go! And a free button to beauty up my blog, with the chance of some more freebies? I am so there!!

I would love to participate. I am going to add the button to my blog.
Count me in! I'm hosting a holiday party on my blog Monday--didn't realize Boo Mama was having one that day, or that you were having one the next. Oops. We should start coordinating our parties better, I guess! ;-) Hard to keep track of them all.
But feel free to link to mine and I'll link to yours and we'll just make our parties bigger! Sounds like fun to me! -J
I'm excited about the party! Now I've just got to figure out what I'm gonna' do.
I so want to remember to join in the fun! Thank you for hosting this Open House!
Sounds fun, so count me in.
I'll be there with bells on!! Thanks for hosting :)
This is my first visit to you, but I wanted to say please count on me to be at your open house on Tuesday. And thank you for inviting me.
Hugs,

I've added your link to my blog. I'm so very happy I found this. Party on, people, party on.
I'm linked up and linked back. Must go do some stuff around the house, but am hoping during nap to snuggle up with some hot cocoa and go visiting!
So much fun...here's my link
