Happy July and welcome to inspiration for the Summer Holidays at The Hearth and Soul Link Party! This week features include ideas to brighten your home, garden and table for the summer months.
And speaking of summer holidays, my husband and I in Canada for a holiday. We are also attending the wedding of a couple who are very dear to us. So The Hearth and Soul Link Party is going to be taking a holiday the weeks of July 16th and July 23rd. This party will remain open so you can share all your lovely posts – and I will still be keeping up with visiting and sharing them on Pinterest, Twitter and Facebook.
I’m sorry for the two week break but it means I can more fully enjoy visiting my family and taking a break with my husband. You can follow my adventures on Facebook and Instagram, and The Hearth and Soul Link Party will be back in full swing on Monday July 30th.
It’s been a fun and busy time at home and away. Just before we left for Canada we attended The Henley Royal Regatta with friends. (Just click on the link if you’d like to find out more about this quintessentially British summer event.) That’s my friend Sonia from Rebel Mum UK in the centre of top photo on the left.

Don’t all of you ladies look lovely? As for the features, that salad looks perfect and the watermelon vase is brilliant and adorable!
This week I’ve linked up my roundup of 25 gluten-free strawberry shortcake recipes and a recipe for snickerdoodle ice cream. I think all of these recipes are ideal to make right now!! 🙂
Thanks for hosting as always, April! I hope you have a terrific week!
