Meet A Few Of Our Favorite Friends
Over the years, we’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful bloggers through Create With Joy. This week, we’d like to introduce you to a few of our faithful contributors and share a few of our favorite posts of the week!
First, if you’re a fan of arts and crafts projects and delight in DIY, then you’re going to delight in meeting Linda and exploring Crafts a la Mode! You’ll find a variety of adorable projects to bring you joy this Fall, including Cow Pumpkins, Pig Pumpkins, and my favorite – Gourd Geese!
Next, Maria at the Krafty Planner notes that Fall is the perfect time to start journaling. To help jump-start your habit, she has created an inspiring set of Fall Reflections Journaling Prompts to get your creative juices flowing! The printable is free to download – stop by and for your copy!
Finally, did you know that Dahlias are the official flower of San Francisco? I didn’t, until I visited The Dahlia Garden at Golden Gate Park through the lens of blogger, traveler and photographer Patrick. Be sure to drop by to see more of his photos and follow his Adventures In Weseland!
Making new friends and deepening existing relationships is a joy. Be sure to visit our featured bloggers this week, explore their blogs, leave them some comment love, and congratulate her for being our Friends Of The Week at Friendship Friday at Create With Joy!
