Welcome to my weekly Clever Chicks Blog Hop! You’re invited to enter the giveaway, hop from one fantastic blog article to another and share links from your blog (if you have one)!

Never in my life have I been busier; with two small children, a husband, a dog, quail, housekeeping, volunteering, and caring for 60+ chickens, my “real world” days are full. Add to that my “virtual life,” which includes Facebooking, blogging, crafting, cooking, Tweeting, Pinning, Instagraming, eBaying, Etsying, YouTubing, writing for magazines and oh…running my own company and slowing down is a luxury. One of the things I appreciate most about hosting this blog hop is that it forces me to slow down for a few hours each week to visit and enjoy the creativity and perspectives of other bloggers. I invite you to join me in spending some time appreciating the talents of at least a few of this week’s party guests. I’m glad I did and I think you will be too.
WHAT IS A BLOG HOP?
A blog hop, also known as a linky party or linkup, is a gathering of blog authors who share links to their articles on the host’s blog. The articles appear as a collection of thumbnail images & clicking on them brings you to the author’s blog. Blog Hops are a great way to network with other bloggers, gain exposure to new readers and discover blogs and ideas you may not have stumbled upon otherwise. No invitation is necessary to attend! Link up and have fun mingling!
Some of my favorite posts from the previous week’s party will be FEATURED. To be considered as a featured blog, please link back to The Chicken Chick®
this week’s FEATURED BLOGS!
How to Link Up to the Party
- Share the link to your clever ideas, DIY projects, recipes, tutorials, decorating tips, stories, etc.
- Please use the direct link to your post, not your blog’s home page- we want to be able to find your clever post!
Party Etiquette
No sponsored product posts, giveaways, linky parties, gift guides or repeat posts shared in the past 12 weeks please. Please grab one of my buttons below and link back to this party somewhere on your blog.
