New Month Long Link Party for a Good Cause!

Are you looking for a way to give back to your community and to bless families in need?

How many of you have purchased furniture from a thrift store, restored, and then sold that furniture for profit?  Here is a great opportunity to help those in need and give back to the stores that have given us so much.

You are invited to participate in a new month long link party where you can link up a piece of furniture you have restored and then donate this furniture to a charity of your choice such as Goodwill, Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity Restores, local church groups, etc.

Details for the new link party:

Link Party Name:  Habitat Heros

Dates:  October 20 through November 20

Host Blogs:  Cassie from Primitive and Proper, Jacqueline from Simple Home Life, Julia from 551 East Furniture Design, Katie from Wildwood Creek.  The link party will connect through all four host blogs.

1.  Link up a piece of furniture that you have restored.

2.  Donate this piece of furniture to a charity of your choice.

I'll leave you with a before and after of one of my favorite restored pieces that was purchased from Goodwill.

This vanity was painted with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in a mix of one part Louis Blue and two parts Provence, which mixed to a lovely pale turquoise.  The hardware was sprayed with a light coat of Rustoleum Satin Nickel.

We thank you for your consideration in joining this link party and helping those in need and your community.

See you at the party!
