Time for Two Link Parties: Craftastic Monday+Kids Can Craft!

Welcome to a new week of the Craftastic & Kids Can Craft Link Parties!  We had more links than ever last week and SO many fabulous projects too.

It was great seeing lots of new crafters join in, but there were quite a few that linked posts of other people's work or didn't have the party button/link anywhere so I couldn't feature them today:(  Please remember to only link items YOU made and to add a link or the party button somewhere on your blog (post, sidebar or party page is fine) so I can share your great work here.

I also wanted to say how much I appreciate the sweet people who have left a nice comment or say thanks on the day of the party.  It may sound corny, but it really is nice to see those and definitely makes my week start out better knowing you enjoy the party as much as I do:)

Now let's see some of the super links from last week's party.

Show, Tell, Share showed this great tutorial - handle holders for hot pots. Practical & pretty!

Freaking Craft shared these cute mummy vases that use materials that can be repurposed after Halloween is over (a big plus to me when it comes to crafting!):

Ordinary Magic linked this cute pumpkin cake and some helpful tips for making it:

Check out these purses made from paper plates by Jellyfish Jelly?  Aren't this cool?!?

And my "Pick of the Week" from the Kids Can Craft party was The House of Bledsoe's Ghost Footprint Plaque.  So cute & a great way to commemorate Halloween with the kids:

The Kids Can Craft Party is for projects kids can make.  It's always open to add your links and the projects do not have to be new (so if you've got a good one from last year, throw it up there!).  You can link up ANYTIME. Just click HERE to get to that party.  Please remember to link back or put the Kids Can Craft button on your blog so you have a chance to get featured:)

Ready to link up?

Party rules are simple:

• As long as it's crafty and made by you it's Craftastic (no links to giveaways, shops, other link parties or other people's work - THEY WILL BE REMOVED).  Just add the link to your specific post (not the main page of your blog).
• Grab my party button & put it on your post or blog.  The code's on the sidebar ->
• Check out some of the other great links and share some crafty comment love.

I leave the party open until 11:59pmEST every Friday, so there's plenty of time to add your newest creations.  Have fun getting crafty this week!!
