Gilded and Glittered – A Christmas tablescape
Happy Thursday!! I hope you’re having a wonderful week! It’s supposed to rain/snow this afternoon, so while it is dark and gloomy outside, I decided to put a little tablescape together. It all started when my little guy wanted to get some mixed nuts for his nutcracker. After breaking just a few nuts, he decided that he no longer wanted the nuts. I decided that I was going to use them for something that I saw in a Martha Stewart book. Here’s my inspiration picture, from an older Martha Stewart Christmas book…. I just love it! Such an easy way to add a little glitz and glamour to a tablescape.…

Crafting Up Christmas
Happy Sunday, friends!! This was the last weekend of my two oldest sons’ football season. It was a fun weekend full of football and excitement!! When I wasn’t at a game, I was crafting up something that I am so excited to share with y’all today…. While visiting my brother a few weeks ago, I came across something that I had been on the hunt for, a stocking stretcher! I wanted to find a bunch, but I just found one. But, I had an idea! I could make a few to use, at least until I find more. I started by tracing the original stretcher, on a thin piece of…

Dreaming of a White Christmas
Happy Sunday, friends!! I hope y’all are having a wonderful weekend! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here! I know that many of you aren’t quite ready to get your Christmas on just yet, but over here, we’re getting started and loving it! The first thing that I brought out from storage this year, was the white village that I made last year. You can click HERE to see just how I made them! These little houses, with their sparkling glass glittered roofs, paired with bottle brush trees (new and vintage), and twinkle lights are perfect for the winter months! This hutch is one of my favorite…

All hearts come home for Christmas ~ a glimpse of what’s to come
Happy Monday, lovelies!! I’m still in shock that it is already November! There is so much excitement in my soul! Throughout the year, every time I do any sort of project around my house, I always think…”how will this look during the holiday season? Will this add to the cozy feel that I hope to create?” I know, that might seem so crazy, but it is what it is!! I LOVE Christmas, and love all of the cozy vibes and family togetherness that the holidays bring! Last year, I never quite finished decorating, that’s actually the case almost every year. But this year, I’m hoping to start now, and finish…

A Thrifted Christmas
I’m so excited to be joining three talented bloggers (their links are at the bottom of this post), for a thrift store challenge. The rules for this challenge were simple, shop one thrift store, and find things to create something Christmasy. As soon as I was invited to participate in this little thrift store challenge, I immediately knew what I wanted to do…my boys’ playroom! I was already planning on revamping my boys’ playroom, and this challenge gave me the motivation to get it done. Before now, it was just a room full of toys…no furniture..just toys, toys, and more toys. Now that my two oldest boys are getting a…
