The Fun In Functional! {Link Party #37}

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 was the Contact Paper Desk Makeover shared on The Happier Homemaker:

And here are a few of my favorite projects from last week. Check them out!

	Clean Your Stove The Easy Way – The Pin Junkie Brilliant! Our little stovetop grates are black metal, so they don’t show the dirt too much, but it’s still great to know how to clean them easily!
	Add Text In Shapes With Word – Irish Italian Blessings This is a super cool tutorial, and you could use it for so many things!
	Make Your Own Baker’s Twine – Feeding Big I love baker’s twine; it’s pretty AND useful!
	100 Ways To Washi – A Night Owl Gah, so many awesome ideas! If you love washi tape, this roundup of 100 ideas is fabulous!
	Orange Dreamsicle Martini – Wine & Glue I’m pretty sure all that needs to be said about this is “YUM!”
	Dr. Seuss Birthday Party – Easy Living Mom What an awesome idea for a kid’s birthday party! You have to see the amazing ideas she came up with for this party!
	Heart Tie-Dye T-Shirt – Happy Go Lucky I love tie-dying clothing, but I was never able to make fun shapes like this! Kara’s tutorial looks easy to follow though, so check it out!
	Valentine Hexagon Art – Thrifty Crafty Girl Love it! It’s such a quick and easy project, but it looks amazing, and you can use the same idea for any holiday or event!

Congrats everyone! If you were featured, feel free to grab a Featured button from the footer!

On to this week’s party!

Just a few guidelines to keep it fun, friendly, and fair:

• Please, no Etsy shops, giveaways, link parties, etc. And no posts you have linked up before, we want to see your new stuff!
• Help spread the news by grabbing a link party button from the footer!
• Comment on at least 2 other posts. We all love new visitors, comments, and link party love!
• HAVE FUN!

I will be featuring a few of my favorite projects each week, so by linking up you are giving me permission to do so. I will also be pinning my favorite projects and features to my Pinterest boards, so be sure to follow along there to see all the crafty goodness. 

Link up any crafts, tutorials, tips and tricks, ideas, recipes, DIY projects (any project really!) you have worked on recently that you want to share!
