Saying Goodbye to Serenity Saturday

I am sorry to say but there will be no more Serenity Saturday's link party.

I have had so much fun running these  and seeing what everyone links up, but it takes a lot of work to set it up each week, a share the features etc etc, and Not everyone has been following the rules, of comments on at least 2 link ups. some weeks there are only about 20 clicks, when there should be a lot more!

at one point I was getting almost 200 link ups a week with around 150 - 300 clicks, now I struggle to reach 100 link ups. So for all the effort I put into setting the party up each week, the outcome isn't really worth it. 

I will really miss my weekly parties, but I think the time has come to say goodbye.

I want to say a BIG Thank You to everyone who has linked up with me every week, some of you from when the parties first started over 2 years ago!!!

    Thanks for hosting as long as you did. I will miss sharing my projects on your linkup party. You are right a lot of us don't follow the linkup rules. I have the same problem with my Monday Linkup Party. Have a great weekend, Natasha.

    Thank you for your parties. I enjoyed them and will miss them. The super large parties, to me, are too much. But I understand how you feel. I'm lucky to get 50 on my own previously. The rules are almost always ignored. You did a great job and I'm sure there are many of us that appreciated you.

    Natasha, parties are a bit of hard work alright. I am keeping on with my Food on Friday - which is themed - I have now got it at a manageable level Good luck with the blog
    Cheers from Carole's Chatter
