Pin Me Linky Party #34

The weekend is almost here so that means it's time for another Pin Me Linky Party! I am posting the rules up here at the top because I need to clarify a few things. This party is for creative posts only; recipes, crafts, tutorials or DIY. Sponsored or review posts are not allowed! Please review the rules below! ALSO...people are slacking off on visiting others. Please visit at least 3 links by others.

I am looking for guest bloggers for guest posts this summer. I am also looking for co-hosts for this weekly party. You can get info about both opportunities here. I am giving away one guest co-host spot for June. If you'd like to win this co-host spot please let me know in a comment on this post.

Guest Post & Co-Host Opportunities

I have a few great opportunities for you here at Diana Rambles.

First off, I am looking for guest bloggers this summer while I am on vacation and for a weekly feature after that. Vacation dates are 6/6-6/25. Weekly guest features will take place on Tuesdays 7/2-8/27. I am looking for creative posts: DIY, food/recipes, crafts, gardening, or tutorials. It is OK if the post is something you've already posted on your blog that you'd like more exposure to. That is actually easiest for both of us. I would put part of the post & photos on my blog with a link that says 'read the rest here' and it's linked to your post. A brand new post is fine too. You can see past guest posts here. Your blog button and/or photo will be posted as well as links to your social media. Guests during my vacation time will need to have their post to me by May 30th. Weekly guests will need to have their post to me a week before their feature. This is for personal bloggers only and is not a paid opportunity. If your blog promotes a product or shop (such as Etsy) OR you'd like to promote a product or service, then you will have to pay for the guest post. Pricing will be determined on an individual basis. You can apply to be a guest post/blogger here. I will let you know if/when you are going to be featured.

I also am offering the opportunity to be a co-host on my weekly Pin Me Linky Party. The cost to co-host is $5/week. As a co-host, your button or photo will be featured at the top of the party post with a link to your blog & social media. You will also be announced as guest co-host in the party reminder email which goes out to over 500 people. You will get the opportunity to submit your links before the party goes live. This opportunity is also for personal bloggers. You can read all details & requirements and sign up to host here.

I, Diana Hansen of Diana Rambles, reserve the right to pick/approve guest & co-hosts.

Free Craft Class Today

Recently I signed up for a crochet class via Craftsy. I am so excited to finally learning how to properly crochet. I've done 3 lessons of Crochet Lab so far and I've learned a lot. I need to do a lot of practice before I am ready to move on. I really like being able to rewind and pause the lesson. On the very important techniques the video is still but the instructor keeps talking. I love the Craftsy App. That is how I've taken my classes so far.
Today (5/18) Craftsy is offering a free class up to $39.99 to new members. Membership is free! The great thing is that once you enroll in a class you have as long as you want to take it. So go ahead, sign up for membership and then pick a free class to take. They have a great selection of classes so there is bound to be something for you. Craftsy has a goal of giving away 10,000 classes and if they reach it,  Craftsy will donate $5,000 to DonorsChoose to fund arts education in public schools across the US. Existing members are not eligible for the free course offer, but will still receive a special treat. I am anxious to see what that is!!

I am a Craftsy Affiliate and get paid a percentage when someone makes a purchase via my link.
