Culinary Delight Queen
Pretty Anjana shares her recipe for Mushroom Peas Masala.  Doesn't this look so warm and hearty?  I'm definitely bookmarking this one to try out since we love mushrooms quite a bit.  To get the recipe, dash on over to Happy and Harried.

Dessert Queen
Pretty Mamamia shared her Fresh Apple Dump Cake with us.  Simply scrumptious!  Fly on over to My Biscuits are Burning to get the recipe.

Tablescape Queen
Pretty Kim...I have fallen for your beautiful Fall tablescape.  I love all of the textures, colors, and varying heights.  To see this wonder, scoot on over to Tidbits and Twine.

Home Decor Queen
Pretty Lee...the picture says it all.  What a lovely guest bedroom makeover.  The subtle details are what really make this room so pleasant.  To see more, head on over to Lee Caroline.

Fall Decor Queen
Pretty Suzie shares a funny little story along with this lovely Fall vignette.  Adore the Pumpkins sign as well as the large star above the mirror.  Walk on over to Dorothy Sue and Millie B's Too to see more of the details. 

If you were featured, please grab a feature button below. 
The Dedicated House
Here are a few guidelines to follow:

1. Link up anything Family friendly...DIY, decor, crafts, recipes, gardening, shopping finds, sewing, furniture transformations. inspirational stories, and beautiful photography.
  
2.  If you are participating in Make it Pretty Monday, be sure to link up your "permalink" post and not your general blog address.
 
3.  No etsy shops, giveaways and no sponsor pages.  I might have a separate party for those when I see how well this one goes.
