HAPPY NEW YEAR! Welcome to the 21st All About Home Link Party! I hope everyone had an amazing New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day and that you are as excited as I am about all of the possibilities ahead in 2020! While we are seeing so many stressful and worrisome world events happening at this time, I think is important to continue to share light, love and creativity while sending prayers and well wishes for anyone in harm’s way. Let’s join together in celebrating the beauty and blessings of “All Things Home” with an attitude of gratitude as we head into the new year!

Do you have any important home goals for 2020 or ideas for caring for your home more intently? Perhaps you are going green or coming up with ways to make your home sustainable. I would love to hear about your 2020 home goals in the comment section below! I am back to full time teaching now so it would certainly be nice to have a house keeper! Alas I am the only one who can clean my house the way I like it! By the way if you are lucky enough to have some hired help, don’t forget the importance of tipping your house cleaner as well (I used to clean houses in college for extra money :)).

Debra and I are so excited to be your hosts each week! After linking up here today, be sure to head over to Common Ground to say hello to Debra and to check out her party features too. She always has so many beautiful posts to inspire! Before we move on to the link up, here’s what we shared this week:

Pin Away Wednesday: Winter Garden Inspiration

I am excited to get back into posting my weekly Pin Away Wednesdays series for 2020! My first post this year features highlights from my Winter Garden Inspiration Pinterest board. I just loved working on this post and can’t wait to explore some winter container garden arrangements. 

Debra also shared a look back at 2019 in her inspiring post, 2019 in Review: Making a House a Home.
