Happy Friday and welcome back to our link party! We took a break last week to enjoy time with family over the holiday weekend. Now my thoughts turn to Christmas. There is plenty of time to finish shopping and decorating though. During this weeks party, I hope there are inspiring links to holiday foods, decorations, and tips.

Lately on Home Crafts by Ali

It's easy to make your own home spa items when you follow the wonderful step-by-step recipes included in Make and Give Home Apothecary by Stephanie Rose.

If you know of someone that loves to use LEGOs, this gift list is what you need. There are suggestions for new sets, books to inspire you to use bricks you have, clothing, storage ideas, and more! Great ideas for ages 2-102.

HERE WERE THE FAVORITE PINS FROM LAST WEEK'S PARTY:

Favorite pins from The Ultimate PInterest Party, Week 227

MY FEATURED PINS FROM LAST WEEK'S PARTY:

For an upcoming holiday get together, consider a Hot Cocoa Bar from Kippi at Home
If you are looking for a delicious and quick dinner, try Creamy Tuscan Chicken from That Recipe

Here are the MAIN RULES:

Rule #1: Link up only 2 PINS (not blog posts. Pins that are duplicates from a previous week will not be repinned.)
Rule #2: Do NOT re-pin from the linky below.
Rule #3: You must commit to re-pinning from WEEK 227, THE ULTIMATE PINTEREST PARTY on SATURDAY or SUNDAY. (Re-pin from the pins that say "The Ultimate Party, Week 227 pins.")
Rule #4: Please only link up your own original pins that contain your images to this party. Do not link up pictures of other bloggers that you may have included in a round-up. Your collage of pictures for a round-up would be fine.
Rule #5: Please do not link up sale posts from your blog or sale posts that go to Etsy or Ebay --only pins that go to actual blog posts on your blog. Thank you.

Details to Observe:

Before you link up the pin, click on the pin and make sure it takes you to your post, not your home page.
Linking up to this party gives the hosts permission to use a picture and a link to your post if they feature your post on their blogs or social media.
Creative K Kids is not responsible for stolen images or the mis-use by others who have found your image through CreativeKKids.com.

Thanks for making this party such a success!!

PLEASE SHARE! You can share on all the social medias (facebook, google+, etc.) but here is a Twitter button to make it easy!

I can decide to not pin a pin if it goes against my beliefs or against the rules of this party.
