See the topics and volunteer to hostess here. And if you would link the post on your own blogs, that would be simply lovely. And if some kind moderator would create a handy-dandy sticky note, I would be oh-so-grateful.

EDITED TO LIST SCHEDULE-----------------------------------

*April 9 - Simply Lovely Laundry (Colleen at Footprints on the Fridge)

*April 16 - Simply Lovely Flower Pots (Susan at Attaining Virtue)

*April 30 - Simply Lovely Windows (Paula at A Catholic Harvest)

Colleen-
I have a post from about a week ago that is about laundry. Would that count, or does it have to be a new post?

I think in the history of the fairs... I've done one. But I love reading them!!! I'll try... but laundry for me doesn't conjure up lovely thoughts. That's why I go read everyone else's.... for inspiration. So everyone else, give Colleen a post!!

Posted on Colleen's blog this morning:

Lovely but Late Laundry
I'm going to hold off on posting the Simply Lovely Laundry fair until Friday. Some ladies wanted to participate but needed a little extra time. There are some great posts so far, so please come back Friday. It's going to be good.


You've got more time to submit something as well.

To do a post does it mean I actually have to do the laundry??? Oh no!!!!!

I'll see if I can't get something up for you, Colleen.

I've thought of a clever way to get around both of those issues and still participate.
