Welcome to The Fun In Functional, the weekly link party hosted on Practically Functional!
If you’re new here, I throw this party once a week on Wednesdays. It’s a place for you to see some awesome projects and find some inspiration. And if you’re a blogger, you can link up any projects you’ve been working on for the past week and show off your creativity!
Please support the blogging community by clicking through to these projects if you find something that interests you. Your visits are important to the bloggers who share their work here! If you link up to the party this week, comment on a few other blogs as well. There’s no downside to networking with other bloggers and finding new ideas!
Last week’s most popular project were the spaghetti jar decorations shared on Just Us Four:
Spaghetti Jar Decorations – Just Us Four
And here are a few of my favorite projects from last week. Check them out!

Take-out Box Advent Calendar – House On The Way
What a fun idea! I love that the belts and buckles on the boxes are the numbers for each day.
Barn Window Jewelry Holder – Here’s To Handy Andy
These jewelry holders are so adorable! I love the colors and the rustic look.

Girly First Aid Kit – Doodle Craft
These are super cute and super functional! Who doesn’t need a bunch of little ziploc bags in their purse?!

Instant Russian Tea – Marty’s Musings
This sounds delicious, who would have though to put orange tang in tea?! Yum!
DIY Felted Wool Dryer Balls – The Seasoned Homemaker
How cool! If you make your own dryer balls you’ll never have to buy dryer sheets again!

Homemade Cheese Crackers – Love, Pomegranate House
OMG, DIY Cheez-Its! Yes!

Italian Stuffing With Cheese - ‘A Casarella
This stuffing looks amazing! There are four kinds of cheese in this thing!
