I've been blogging for close to 3 months now, and have discovered how important it is to plan and promote your posts to get visitors to your blog. There are a lot of wonderful link up parties out there that can show off projects that you are posting.
I have also discovered how important it is to be organized when it comes to posting and promoting your posts. When I first started posting, I'd randomly link up to parties, post on sites like Hometalk, and pin a few of my images. But I found that the more I promoted, the more visitors came to my site. The problem was that I then couldn't remember what posts I had promoted where. So, I've created this blog planner to help me stay organized.

Of all the foods that can be made fresh at home, french fries are one of my favorites. Contrary to what some people may tell you, with the right tools, the process of making this delicious treat isn't hard.
When making a grocery list, do you ever find yourself wondering what it was that you had run out of during the week? This handy DIY chalkboard made on an old clipboard is the perfect place to record those things you must remember to buy and can even hold coupons or a shopping list too!
In the June 2013 issue of Traditional Home magazine, there is a tablescape done in red and green. Something about these two colors together really catches my eye. I decided to try the combo myself this past weekend when I was inspired by some napkins I bought at Jo Ann Fabrics.
In the center of the table I used cream colored pots filled with geraniums and dusty miller. I also added a cast iron bird in cream and set around tea lights in clear glass holders.
I layered the plates by using a red decorative charger from Kirklands, a cream colored plate by Chris Madden, and a light green Martha Stewart dessert plate. I topped off the pile with the geranium napkins I bought.
Using green and white gingham scrapbook paper, I made name tags for each of the guests. I printed the name out on a white address label on my printer and cut it to fit the card.
So what do you think of my red and green tablescape?
