Treasure Hunt Thursday #84 & Highlights

**I have been receiving emails stating that party goers are visiting and trying to leave comments but that there are a LOT of word verifications turned on. PLEASE if you have word verification turn it off so you can receive comments from other party goers. 9 times out of ten people will just not leave a comment when they see they have to enter a word verification. It is very time consuming when you are trying to  visit with every party goer. All guidelines are listed below but I felt that since I was receiving emails about people WANTING to leave comments but just giving up I would give y'all the heads up. If you are not sure how to turn yours off let me know and I will help you out if I can!:)*
Welcome to THT #84! I am sure everybody is busy wrapping up decking the halls that is if you aren't done already. I staid up till 2 am last night trying to finish and I am still not quite done yet!:0 Today should be the day though. I have been by to visit most everybody but I didn't get a chance to leave comments yet. I DO appreciate each and every person who comes to party. It is just really busy this time of year.
Don't forget Saturday is my 2nd Annual Holiday Mantle Party! I can't wait!!
Now on to my picks for this weeks highlights.
Liz from Savvy Seasons by Liz shared with us how she uses ribbon and ornaments in vignettes around her beautiful home. 
Vanessa over At The Picket Fence shared with us her Ballard knock off table runner. If I find the time I would love to make one of these.
Shenita from Embellishments by SLR  showed us her beyond beautiful mantle. 
Susan from Uniquely Yours...or Mine shared with us how she made over this fabulous frenchy chair! 

As always thank you to all who partied last week! I am so truly honored to have such talent partying at my place! If you were featured please feel free to grab the "I've Been Featured" button!:) I have the newly updated button with html code on my sidebar! 

 What would be a HUGE help and encourage more comments not just from me but others as well would be for everybody to take off their required verification codes for leaving a comment. This seems to take just a few seconds of time but when you have to do it on 30 or more blogs it takes up a TON of time. Last week most everybody had turned off their Word Verification which made it so much easier for me to stop by everybody's links! Thank you!

READ THE RULES PLEASE!:)
Now on to this weeks party! 
As with all parties there are the normal rules. You must link back to From My Front Porch To Yours in your THT POST. Just common courtesy. If ya don't link back ya don't get to party. Only link up to your Treasure Hunt Thursday post and NOT your blog homepage. Please No advertising and PLEASE NO MORE than 3 links from the SAME party goer. Also NO MORE linking up to your own link parties. I am seeing more and more link ups of just people promoting their own linky parties. I know it takes time to go back and make a separate post to join the party but it is just the polite thing to do. If you find your post deleted it is not because I am a meany, I just have to make sure the rules are being followed. You can save some of your posts for the following weeks party!Please only link up new posts and not posts that you linked up the week before.

Also be sure to visit at least the link before you and after you to just say Hi! It makes partying all the more fun and remember if your link has had the most visits you will get featured on Tuesdays! If you are new around here I would love it if ya become a follower!:)

Thanks for the linky party! I love visiting other blogs but commenting is a chore with the word verification and the word press login thing. I am not sure that people know how to turn all of that junk off. I just visited 3 blogs and tried to comment and now I am just frustrated. Bah, humbug! Lol
