Happy New Year and welcome to the 73rd All About Home Link Party! I am so happy to start a brand new year with all of you, my dear friends! Despite the trials we have all faced over the past year, I am truly grateful to have spent so many Mondays with you here at the party. It truly made things a little easier to hold fast to the anchor of “home” while we navigated the waters of  2020…(now happily, “water under the bridge!”)  I am super excited to start the year with fresh ideas an inspiration gained here at the party!

I love this antique postcard image! It’s still a bit wintry, but with vibrant flowers and vivid green…like a bright, fresh start!

Debra and I are thrilled to be your hosts, especially this time of year. Thanksgiving is our shared favorite holiday and we are both Christmas crazy! After partying here be sure to swing by Common Ground to see Debra’s features too. Before moving on with the link up, here’s what we have been up to recently:

This past week I started “de-Christmasing” little by little, packing away most of the red and green and leaving out a few wintry items. I also have been looking on Pinterest and blogs for some new ways to cozy up our home for the season. I shared some inspiration in my post, Simple Christmas-to-Winter Decorating Ideas. 

I also shared a post on Easy New Year’s Eve Decorating Ideas.

Debra shared tips for starting the new year off right in her post, Planners and Journals: Keeping a Prayer Journal.

Now it’s time to enjoy some wonderful features from last week’s party!
