Tuesday Turn About #200 Party Celebration
We’ve hit 200!!! Two hundred parties, that is! It’s Tuesday Turn About #200 Party Celebration!
TUESDAY TURN ABOUT #200 PARTY CELEBRATION
We had tips and ideas for home at last week’s party!
Woo hoo! We hit TWO HUNDRED!
This week, Tuesday Turn About celebrates its 200th party!
Can you believe it?
TTA History
Our very first Tuesday Turn About was on May 28, 2019. Just shy of four years ago!
The OG hostesses were Crissy from First Day of Home, Michelle from Thistle Key Lane, and myself. And we had a total of 67 linkups at that first party! We were thrilled!
Then, the first week of January in 2020, Carol from Bluesky at Home joined Michelle and I as a hostess.
At the end of 2021, both Michelle and Carol decided they wanted to give more time to other aspects of their blog (as did Crissy in 2019), and then Cindy and Lynne joined as cohostesses at the beginning of 2022!
All the former hostesses and I remain great friends, even though parting was always bittersweet. 🙂 AND, all three of the past cohostesses will be featured at the party here today!
Were Your There?
Who all was here for the very first party? Was it you? I would love to know if your linked-up or even visited that first party! Let me know in the comments!
And the Winner Is…
Last week, our giveaway was opened for people to enter to win a $100 gift card to Amazon! We had over 500 entries!
Drumroll, please!
THE WINNER OF
OUR 200th PARTY CELEBRATION IS:
SANDY R.
Congratulations, Sandy! And thank you for your entries!
Thank you ALL for entering! We hope you had fun!
LOTS of Celebratory Features
This week, the cohostesses are sharing FIVE features each!
Yep, FIFTEEN features in all this week! If you aren’t featured here at MWA, be sure to visit Cindy and Lynne to see if you were featured there! (Links are below.)
Be sure to hop on over to My Family Thyme and Reinvented Delaware to check out SIX additional features from TTA!
If you haven’t been featured at MWA this week, you just may be featured there!
How ’bout our weekly tips before we share the wonderful features?
Weekly Household Tip
Want your room to look larger? Be sure to hang your curtain rods as close to the ceiling as possible (about 3-4 inches from the ceiling). This will not only give a larger impression, but it will make your ceilings feel higher, too!
Weekly Blogging Tip
This week is a biggun’! Shouldn’t it be with a celebration party?
I’m actually stealing sharing a PSA and friendly reminder from Grayson Bell of iMark Interactive:
“I know there are many (are) still using Classic Editor (which requires a plugin to function) instead of moving to Gutenberg/block.
While this is working for you now, I would highly recommend you learn how to use the Block editor.
More and more plugins are slowly pulling support for classic because they can’t keep up with compatibility between the two systems.”
And he continues…
“I know some of you really dislike the block editor, but most people I know that have moved over and learned block have really enjoyed it. The possibilities you have increase dramatically when you use it.
So while we don’t know when “official” support for classic will end, major plugins are slowly writing classic support out because it’s becoming cumbersome to support both.”
iMark Interactive has some easy to follow YouTube tutorials for Gutenberg, too! Though they aren’t the most current, they are still super helpful in navigating this platform.
Whew! I told you it was big!
Now, let’s peruse all the features, shall we?

Easy Tutorial for Flower Pounding
Have you ever heard of the art of flower pounding? I hadn’t until another one of the original TTA hostesses, Crissy from First Day of Home, shared this DIY! Perfect gift for Mother’s Day! I’m always impressed with Crissy’s tutorials and her YouTube channel, too!

Check out our Tuesday Turn About Link Party Pinterest board! All featured posts are pinned to this board each week, IF you have a pinnable image!
Let’s start sharing! Because this is a party, we encourage all who link up to visit several other bloggers who have linked as well – comments and pins are a great way to spread the love!
Before you get started, take a look at our guidelines:
- This party is for home decor and home-related posts only (recipes, organizing, DIY, crafts, etc.). Link up to 3 related posts. Please do not link up informational posts that do not relate to the topic.
- If you would please not link up shops, advertising, round-ups, other link parties, or any posts promoting sales, we would appreciate it.
- DO NOT PIN FROM IMAGES ON THIS PAGE (it just won’t work right on Pinterest). However, please visit the original post/source and pin from there. That works perfectly!
- Please make sure that your images are in a jpeg or png format. If we can’t save your image, we may not be able to feature you. So sad!
- By linking to the party, you give us permission to share your projects on our blogs and social media, with the use of ONE photo from your blog for that may be included in a pinnable collage. We will always give proper credit with a no-pin image.
Thank you ALL, so much, for making Tuesday Turn About a one-stop-location for all things home! And for making this such a great community, as well!

You are so welcome, Amy!
Congrats, Julie!! What a great milestone! I don’t think I was at the very first party, but I remember when you were starting it up. Also, I love the block editor, but it’s how I learned WP just over a year ago, so I can’t really compare!
Isn’t that great that you learned Gutenberg right off? Thank you for joining the party so often! We appreciate you!
Congrats on the big 200th party, Julie! Thanks so much for the shout-out and feature of my flower pounding art as well as the mention of my YouTube channel. You’re so kind! I’m thrilled to see how large your party has grown. Way to go!
You are so welcome! I’m so glad we were co-hostesses in the beginning. Good memories!
Awesome job on your 200 parties. Thanks for all the time and effort

Julie, a huge congratulations to you and the other hostesses on the 200th Tuesday Turn About Party! I do think I was at that first party! I’m here again today at #129, celebrating my latest landscape renovation. It’s a real process. I would love having a Mother’s Day celebration like Donna created in that breakfast board – any day! Happy May!
