I shared this last month at Positively Splendid as part of the Swell Noel series. Christmas is my favorite holiday and I love that it seems to be a celebration of every single day in December. I am never finished baking, wrapping presents or decorating the house… and I like it like that! I love a cheerful holiday mess. My […]
Paper Projects: Homemade Gift Tags
For someone who doesn’t scrapbook, I sure do a lot of paper projects. I like to make my own homemade gift tags at Christmas. I can’t help myself. Each year I say I’m going to just use the ready-made type, and each year I wind up making my own anyway. (It’s a sickness really…) Paper […]
I planted tomatoes but got Christmas trees instead. (DIY lighted trees.)
I shared this tutorial over at Tatertots & Jello last year and thought I would dust it off and post it over here, in case you missed it, or in case you have a memory like mine (which is non-existent these days…) We had several old tomato cages laying around in our side yard. (Me? Creative? […]
Make a sparkly epsom salt snowman.
Today let’s make an easy DIY snowman using a little glitter, epsom salt and some round spheres from STYROFOAM TM Brand Foam. I love, love, love Under The Table and Dreaming and am in awe of Stephanie Lynn’s projects. So when I was invited to make a project for her STYROFOAM TM Brand Foam series, I did a little happy dance. I’ve used […]
Why I change my Christmas colors each year. (And what I’ve done for the past five…)
I love decorating for Christmas! The season is so special to me that I want to decorate everything! I obsessively and impulsively buy Christmas ornaments through out the year. (I might have a little Christmas Ornament Problem… I’m trying to get help) It’s a sickness. I can’t help it. But would it make a difference […]
Make your own frosted, icy branches.
To buy decorative frosty or icy branches in the store can be very expensive. They’re actually quite easy to make on your own using epsom salt, glitter and glue. Check out this easy tutorial.
No more burned tongues! Make hot cocoa ice cubes.
I shared this simple tip over at I {Heart} Naptime last week. It’s an easy way to help keep your little people from getting burned by one of the holiday season’s most common treats: hot cocoa. Have you ever burned your tongue? Of course you have. It hurts, and it would be preventable if you […]
This is what a present from Santa should look like.
As Santa prepares to wrap presents for the good little boys and girls, I thought I’d share a few things I know about Santa’s gift wrapping preferences. Santa likes simplicity. His wrapping paper should be plain red or plain green. He doesn’t care for patterns or prints. He likes a simple ribbon tied in a bow. […]
Yes! I am dreaming of a White Christmas…. why do you ask?
I’m linking up today with a couple of Bloggy Christmas Home Tours. Love the time of year. LOVE!! I’ve mentioned 80 ba-zillion times that I have a new color scheme each year at Christmas. I am already dreaming about what I am going to do for 2011. (Being as I am so inspired by the […]
Do I make my own decorations? Of course I do!
I love my Christmas Artwork. It says “Love is what’s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.” (Handsome Hubby likes my artwork, but says the two wreaths look like a cat killed a bird on them….) I also bling-ed out my FREE chandy, which has now been at […]
