On the Hallmark Channel, following "Winterfest" in January and "Countdown to Valentine's Day" in February... the Calendar will eventually blossom come April into an All NEW themed event on the Hallmark Channel titled... "Spring Fling"!

Recently we learned the First Movie in the Hallmark Channel's "Spring Fling" Event will be "Hearts of Spring" (previously titled: Mommy Bloggers).

Love this collage of pics!!! This is how Lisa describes it, via Instagram:
"We are shooting a flashback montage today. It is supposed to be late 90's, early 2,000's and current decade."

Another FUN FACT:

Most of you will recall Lisa Whelchel as Blair Warner from the TV sitcom "Facts of Life"...

Well, some cast members of the TV series "Facts of Life" - Charlotte Rae (Mrs. Garret), Lisa Whelchel (Blair Warner), Kim Fields (Tootie), Geri Jewell (Geri, Blair's cousin), and Todd Bridges (Willis) gathered on Hallmark Channel's Home & Family this week for a sweet reunion!

My Thoughts on "The Facts of Life":

Oh my goodness... I remember growing up watching the Facts of Life faithfully every week. We only had one TV, back in those days, and we all watched together. The Facts of Life was such a fun show in the 80's for girls and families. Blair, I must say, was always our favorite. I think I first learned what a cashmere sweater was, because of Blair Warner, and more about the "facts of life", I'm sure! Looking back now, it is such a sweet memory - watching Blair and Jo become friends in spite of their different backgrounds and laughing so hard at all of Natalie and Tootie's fun escapades and antics... knowing someone was going to be... "in truuuu-ble"! The Facts of Life was always an amusing weekly half-hour of my blissful childhood that I treasure!

If you look close, you will see the clapper says the previous movie title: Mommy Bloggers.
I personally prefer the new movie title! What do you think?

"Hearts of Spring" storyline:

via Hallmark: "A famous mommy blogger faces an empty nest as her daughter prepares to go away to college."

"Handcrafted America" image courtesy: INSP

I was recently given the opportunity (Thank you Melissa at INSP!) to preview the very first episode of the All New INSP television series “Handcrafted America”, hosted by the energetic, bubbly actress Jill Wagner. All of you movie fans will recognize Jill from INSP’s Christmas in the Smokies and Hallmark Channel’s "Autumn Dreams".

As host, Jill Wagner passionately takes you on three separate journeys during each episode, visiting creative individuals who craft products by hand, we might all use in our life every day.

Jill Wagner image courtesy: Christmas in the Smokies

From the beginning of time, if a person wanted something, they had to work hard to either buy it or make it. Nothing was easily and often today cheaply mass-produced in factories as products are now available from your local store.

The craftsman featured in “Handcrafted America” will show you from design to conception how an individual quality product comes into being. The first episode will premiere on INSP, March 1st, 2016 at 8pm/7c. In this half hour, you will see the incredible detailed inner workings of a clock completely made by hand, the family history behind the creation of a chair which does not use any nails or glue, and a woman blacksmith who creates objects from wrought iron and steel.

Video Clip of "Handcrafted America":

It's a fascinating adventure to follow Jill Wagner and watch these individuals create something into being from pieces of scrap metal, wood, paper, etc... From their hands they can design useful products like our forefathers did. Depending on each object, the time to create these items typically takes longer than your average factory generated product, but the lasting quality is often much higher.

While “Handcrafted America” visits craftsman who create these designs today from a dream into being… it’s also a piece of our American history that we should all remember and treasure.

Mark your Calendars...

for the Premiere of “Handcrafted America”,

hosted by Jill Wagner on INSP,

Hallmark Movie Updates! White Hot, A Time to Dance, Hearts of Spring, and More!!!

There has been a lot of Hallmark movie news floating around, lately... so I thought I would share some of the latest updates...

Karen Kingsbury's Book
A Time to Dance

Karen Kingsbury’s A Time To Dance:

News has finally been released on the Karen Kingsbury book, A Time to Dance, becoming a Hallmark movie. We first learned the possibility of this happening in September of 2014! I shared the press release, here.

According to Deadline.com, "pre-production is underway for the movie adaptation of Karen Kingsbury’s A Time To Dance, the first novel in her Timeless Love series, scheduled to premiere this year (2016!)."

I'm not certain which Hallmark station, as of yet, they will air this on.

Karen Kingsbury’s book A Time To Dance is available through Paperback, Hardcover, Audible Audio Edition, and Kindle.

White Hot:

The Movie White Hot (based on the book by Sandra Brown) will star:

John Schneider (Come Dance at my Wedding) as Huff Hoyle,

Shenae Grimes-Beech (Christmas Incorporated) as Sayre Hoyle,

Sean Faris (Christmas with Holly) as Beck Merchant -
and Jeremy Guilbaut (My Boyfriends' Dogs) as Chris Hoyle

on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries - premiering April 17, 2016!

John Schneider, Shenae Grimes-Beech, writer Sandra Brown,
Sean Faris, and Jeremy Guilbaut

Pictured on set of "White Hot" via Facebook

Storyline via whatsfilming.ca: "After spending 10 years away from Destiny, the main character, Sayre, returns to look into the suspicious death of a family member. Sayre must overcome many obstacles along the way including a history of tension between her and her corrupt father that is reignited and her feelings for the lawyer who is investigating the crime."

Please Note: From what some of you have shared with me, I know you are surprised to see this story come to Hallmark. I have not read this book - so I cannot comment on it, but it is my hope Hallmark will keep to it's usual moral standard. If I hear anything different, I will be sure to let you know!

Mommy Bloggers - NEWLY NAMED: Hearts of Spring

Some details on the upcoming Hallmark movie Mommy Bloggers have also been released via whatsfilming.ca: "The film features Vancouver’s own Michael Shanks (Saving Hope, Stargate SG-1) and Carrie Genzel (Watchmen, Jennifer’s Body). Real life mother/daughter combination of Lisa Whelchel (The Facts of Life, For Better or For Worse) and Clancy Cauble will be portraying a mother/daughter relationship in the movie as well."

http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/hearts-of-spring - it looks like this Lisa Whelchel Movie has been re-named Hearts of Spring and it is scheduled to air April 9, 2016 at 9pm/8c.!
