Tuesday Turn About #55 Summer Treasures
This week at the link party, we have Tuesday Turn About Summer Treasures!
TUESDAY TURN ABOUT #55 Summer Treasures
Here at My Wee Abode, last week’s party was all about furniture projects!
How is your week starting off, friends? We are SO glad you are here with us.
Today’s party ‘intro’ will be brief, as I’m EXHAUSTED! I started a project this weekend that is about 3/4 finished, but it’s a lot of work!
Of course, I’ll be sharing the project soon! Wanna a hint? It’s my first room makeover!
This week, I’m sharing a bit of this ‘n’ that, and calling it my “summer treasures”, even though ALL our party-goers are treasures! And speaking of ALL…
Before we go any further with the party, let’s take a look at this week’s blogging and household tips!
Weekly Blogging Tip
Last week, we talked about adding ‘no-follow’ to your affiliate links. But, I was assuming that you are USING affiliate links!
IF you haven’t yet started to use affiliate income, the easiest online company to partner with is Amazon Associates. It’s easy to apply (takes like 10 minutes), easy to qualify (if you are having a hard time qualifying, leave me a comment and let’s talk), and easy to use!
Seriously… give it a try… you have nothing to lose and LOTS to gain!
Weekly Household Tip
This week, I’m sharing more of a DIY tip than a household tip.
When taking on a big paint project, you can keep your paintbrush or roller moist by wrapping it in cellophane. Some people even suggest putting the brush in the fridge, but I haven’t found that any more helpful than leaving it out on the counter.
Watch for part 2 of this tip next week!
(BTW, I blown away last week by how many of you make your bed each day! I was encouraged, and actually made my bed more than half the time this week! Baby steps!)
Now, time to partayyyyy!

Okay, these coasters that Marie from Interior Frugalista is sharing are some of the cutest things I’ve seen in a while!
Her twist on these is for Canada Day, but you could do these for your home state, July 4th, sports, dance… and so much more! And someone is sure to treasure these as a gift!

I hope you all have a blessed July 4th and/or Canada Day! We have so much to be thankful for in this country and world… and my prayer is that it will thrive on the values is was founded on!
Thanks so much Julie! So sorry about your blog issues, not fun! I hope you have a wonderful 4th and I look forward to your room reveal!
Thanks, Jenna! I’m working on the mood board for the room… hope to have it posted on Thursday. It’s just like me to do a makeover AFTER the ORC is over! LOL!
I love your treasures Julie – especially that sorbet — Mmmmmmmmmm!!! Sorry you were having problems! Technology is so great when it works! 😉
Hope you have a lovely week and have fun with your project!
Thanks, Barbara… not sure what/how it happened. Praying it doesn’t do it again!
Thank you so much for sharing my summer living room!!! So greatly appreciate the feature! Hope you have a lovely week, my friend!
🙂 Linda
Of course, Linda! I always love your tours… and your radiator cover is a fave of mine!
Thank you for hosting! This is what I featured the week of 6-22 to 6-26 on my blog. On Tuesday was Grilled Shrimp and Scallops. Wednesday saw Crescent Veggie Pizza. Thursday was a Perfect Grilled Porterhouse Steak. And winding up this Week was a post on Grilling The Perfect Steak. Enjoy!
Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you so much for hosting Julie! And I am so sorry for the technical issues. I had some major issues happen the day before I did a blog hop with 25 ladies. I had a bit of a melt down! Hope it’s all cleared up!
I do have to admit, I hyperventilated just a tad… and then when it happened again 30 minutes later! Talk about crazy! I also have had Siteground do maintenance the night I was finishing up a post for a hop that early morning. The things we go through! #bloggerlife
Julie,
Thank you so much for the feature. I just had some sorbet for dessert. lol! I hope you get your computer problems fixed. That is no fun.
Hugs,
Bev
Thanks, Bev… it seems to be okay now… I don’t think it was my computer, as perhaps maybe something weird going on with my editor? We’ll see how it goes next week! Hugs!
thanks for hosting Julie, go get some rest! Great tip about the paintbrush. When we were working here at our current house, sometimes I’d have to leave my paint brush and roller pan from week to week. I kept multiple paint color brushes and paint pans in the fridge. It saved tons of clean up time.
Yes… it really does. However, I did have an issue with the paint I used this weekend and keeping it overnight. More on that later! 😉
Hi Julie, good luck with your makeover, I can’t wait to see it! BTW you are not the only one who does makeovers after ORC is over lol! Thanks for hosting and I hope you have a lovely week!
LOL! I’m glad to hear I’m not the only procrastinator… though, I just wasn’t ready to do the makeover until now. And, with working outside the home FT, it will take me longer than most.
Thanks for the party. I am excited to see your new room. I keep my paintbrushes/rollers moist by putting them in a plastic bag tied shut and then putting in the refrigerator .
So happy to see you here, Amy. Do you know what helps with keeping them in the fridge? I found that it makes my brush ‘gooey-er’?
Thanks so much for hosting each week and for sharing all these festive patriotic ideas. It’s all fabulous! Hope your celebration is a happy one and I can’t wait to see what you’re working on, CoCo
Thanks, CoCo! My mood board just went live today for the bathroom!
I’m so glad you like my mini pallet coasters, Julie, and thank you so much for featuring them! xo Happy Canada Day to me and Happy 4th of July to you this week 🙂
Hope you had a lovely holiday, Marie… Your coasters make me want to get a Cricut or Silhouette (first time I’ve felt that way!).
It is a lot of work to make over a room but in the end I’m always so glad I tackled it!
So far so good, Joanne!
Thanks for hosting! Happy Fourth of July!
You, too, Amber! Seems like when I want to feature you, someone else is before me and chooses you! 😉 Glad you are featured here at TTA!
Thank you for hosting this week, Julie! Computers issues are so frustrating and they happen at the worst times! Hope you have smooth sailing from now on our. Can’t wait to see your new room makeover! Had to laugh at your baby steps comment on making your bed half the time! Your glass is half full at least! Yay! Today, I linked up # 118, Betsy’s Sweet Land of Liberty and # 117, DIY Easy Fabric Yo-Yos. I hope you have a safe and happy 4th of July!
Hugs,
Tee @ Teediddlydee
You, too, Tee! So good to see you here again! Hugs! (And I made my bed almost every day this week!)
Those pallet coasters are so creative!! Great pick!
Aren’t they pretty?! Oh… just had another idea… Bible verses?!
Hello Julie, Thank you for the invite. I brought my favorite cake. Have a great week ahead.
So happy to have you with us! Hope to see you each week!
Thank you for being the hostest with the mostest! Great tips, freebies and cute decor to boot! Happy 4th!
Of course, Gena… thanks for joining us!
Beautiful features, Julie! I love the household tips too. We usually put our brushes in a ziplock too. Never tried the fridge!
Yeah… I don’t think the fridge helps at all. 🙂 But cleaning the brush more regularly does! LOL!
