The Star on Saturday #3

Hello... I'll give it another try and see whether my link widget works this time.


As I did not craft anything this week, I can't link my own favourite post of the week. But what about you? Anything that stood out this week? I'd love it if you had something to share with all the other insatiable crafters out there...

Please link up below. And remember the rules:

  1. The project has to be yours. (But it doesn't matter whether it was posted on your blog or you posted it as a guest post somewhere else.)
  2. Only one link per week.
  3. You need to link back to the party via link or button.
  4. Anything vaguely crafty goes: Projects, re-dos, before and afters, recipes, how tos, also blogging tips.
  5. By taking part you agree to Craft-Werk using an image from your post to include in the "Feature" post on Sunday.


Best,

Oooops...

Hello everyone, something went wrong with the link party on Saturday. Apparently the widget didn't quite work. :-( And worse - I didn't notice it because I was busy all weekend, photographing and looking after guests. 

Big apology to everyone who tried to link up. I hope I get this thing working next week! Off to visit all comments and new followers now. But do stay and have a scone, please - they are freshly baked ;-)


Best,

Second Star on Saturday

Did you write and craft much this last week? Well, I got two little projects done - and wish I could have done more. But alas - life doesn't always let me do what I want to do. I am pretty busy with my college course at the mo, and then there is also family duties and a string of visitors who are staying with us. 

A big thank you, by the way, to all the nice people who took the time to leave a comment on one of my posts. I do try and return the visit, but it's entirely possible that I sometimes miss someone. Ooops. Not intentional! I know how GREAT it is to receive feedback. ANY kind of feedback - even just a one-word-post like "cool" can make my day. 
How about making somebody else's day next? Do you have a favourite project that you posted on your blog this last week? I'd love to see it. Please do post it here on "The Star on Saturday" linking party. And then visit the other participants' sites and leave a comment for them.


The rules:

  1. The project has to be yours. (But it doesn't matter whether it was posted on your blog or you posted it as a guest post somewhere else.)
  2. Only one link per week.
  3. You need to link back to the party via link or button.
  4. Anything vaguely crafty goes: Projects, re-dos, before and afters, recipes, how tos, also blogging tips.
If I were to add a link, it would be my Easter Eggorations... they were my favourite post this week, because it was such an easy craft and yet turned out really nice. 

What is your favourite post of the week? Please link up!!!


Best,

Highlights of the First Star on Saturday

My very own little linking party "The Star on Saturday" took place for the first time yesterday. Many thanks to those select few who took part!!! I hope we can grow this together to a bigger event. Nonetheless it was great fun for me to see who would link up.


As announced, part of the linking party is a little highlights-post the following day. It falls to me to pick a few projects that I subjectively present as the highlights today. The decision what to display was very difficult, because I loved all projects. I seriously did! So here goes... 


As a confirmed bookworm, I completely adore Patrice's Book Art. Seriously, isn't this the most ingenious idea?




Check the how-to at Lemon Tree Creations.

Next I loved the seriously glamourous headboard that Jan created. Isn't this the most professional finish?


Jan wrote a step-by-step tutorial on how to glam up your bed on Bobbypins Boardwalk.

What about glamming up yourself for spring? Jerri has just the right thing for you - pretty, pastelly spring earrings.
There are more to see on her blog Simply Sweet Home.

Right - those are today's picks. I hope next week will see lots more nice projects that are stars in their own right... For now I can say that all projects certainly get 5 stars from me...
Thanks for taking part, guys!!!

Best,
