SNS #25 brings you - a wacky winner and picture linky!




Intro

Welcome to Saturday Nite Special #25!

If you're new here, kick off your shoes and join in! The theme is always a  DIY themed anything goes, so feel free to post your project, *past or present that you're proud of so we can clap along with you!

*max 1 month old, and never posted here before or entry will be deleted. I wish to keep the info fresh for viewers. Thanks!

Party starts at Fri night and ends Sunday 11pm, so you have all weekend to join.

I LOVE to highlight inspiring posts during the event on the sidebar, so make sure you check in several times over the weekend. You may be next. :)

NEW! Let's try out the picture link party this weekend! There's abit of extra typing when you enter, but I think it may be worth it for easier viewing pleasure. Smaller descriptions tend to work better. Let's try it out!


Giveaway winner from SNS #24




Miss Polly hosted a giveaway last SNS. And I've been too absent minded and busy to announce a winner of this fab giveaway. Thank-you for your extreme patience!

Remember this sweet thing?




This is the Farmer's Market Apron tht was up for grabs. So, drumroll please.....






Dawn, at Wacky Whimsy, be very afraid. 171 comments wanted that very apron. :) Congrats girl! I'll have Polly email you.

Good news! Because I forgot to announce right after SNS, Polly has extended the sale of all her aprons, including this number for 1 more week. Polly, you are a GEM!
You can find the entire selection on sale in her ETSY store.

Thanks again Polly, for the fab giveaway!

~ DIY Feature ~

So back to this Wacky Whimsy stuff, have you seen Dawn's blog? Fun fun wacky fun stuff!


Here's her FURNITURE link.  Isn't that wackin'' crazy?!



Here's her CRAFT link. Oh my word, she has way more patience than I ever will! Isn't this fabulous?



And you KNOW I had to check out her polka dot link. How fun is this?!? That wall is to die for. Love it! Like, ALOT. I want one.

Go browse around Dawn's blog. You'll enjoy yourself!

Blah blah rules for the SNS linkup:

* Please enter your chosen DIY once in one of the below parties. No duplicates in both linkups please. Not sure where yours goes? Pick one and run with it! :)

1. Please link up your intended  post, NOT your blog. (post, then click on title of your post, cut and paste that url)

2. Please put a link in your post that leads back to the party so others can see what's up! (scroll button on sidebar if you wish)

3. A shorter description will work better with the new picture linky party. Let's try it out!

*4. This party is geared for *DIY type projects we can all attempt to make ourselves. Items for sale may be linked up IF your entry is posted on your blog and in tutorial style (unless making the item is self explanatory).

5. Please link projects up to 1 month old max, and new to SNS. Repeat posts will be deleted. I wish to keep info fresh material for viewers that visit this party. Thanks!
