Once upon a time, I spent an entire afternoon creating the perfect Christmas Winter Playlist for this week’s Music Monday. I then got too distracted by hanging lights and garlands that I completely forgot to post it! This year I wanted a mix of Christmas favorites and music that I connect with winter. It’s a [...]
I don’t know about you, but this Christmas has seemed better than usual, extra Christmasy somehow. It might have been all the snow or being a little extra prepared. I’m not sure why but it’s seemed more happy and peaceful. I hope yours was wonderful! I was one of the first ones up on Christmas. [...]
I wish you a merry Christmas! I wish you a merry Christmas! I wish you a merry Christmas and lots of fun and laughs and presents and hugs and happiness and good memories! Thank you all for your comments and emails throughout the year! You are all so inspiring to me!
I’m still waiting for the snow to start, but with all the coming and going that Christmas Eve brings at my parents house, it’s probably just as well that the flakes are holing off. For now. I still have my fingers crossed that I’ll wake up tomorrow to presents and good food, yes, but mostly [...]
I loved seeing all my Twitter friends posting photos of their favorite Christmas gifts. I kept checking in Christmas day to see who was rejoicing over what. This year my hands-down-best-gift-ever was the adorable Fuji Instax mini (and tons of film!) that Joel gave me. It’s so cute! What was your favorite gift? Did you get [...]
We’ve been having the most wonderful, relaxing holiday. Reading by the fire and laughing with family and friends over hot cocoa. There’s nothing quite like knitting by the tree and watching a Christmas movie! (carol garland) (yarn tree tutorial) Congratulations to Vanessa, the winner of The Cupcake Mint giveaway!
Hey there! I’m Alli and I’ve been asked by our wonderful Jessica to do a little guest blog on here about what I want for Christmas. I thought and thought about the topic and how I wanted to go about it, and it struck me. All I’ve heard for weeks now is, “Where’s your Christmas [...]
I’m not sure if I should call it a tradition or a joke, but this time of year we constantly receive Starbucks Christmas tree ornaments. It’s gotten to the point that I think we could decorate our tree using only Starbucks related baubles if we wanted too. So in the spirit of a little Christmas [...]
Today’s weekend projects are all about the holidays! Yay! Are you ready to celebrate? Let’s bring out the glitter and scissors and get crafting! This beautiful garland from Whip Up is perfect for anyone looking for a quick dose of holiday cheer. Glitter and glue, who could ask for more? I do love these snowy ornaments!
Hi there! Before I begin my post I thought I would start with a wee introduction. My name is Amanda and I blog over at Here Comes the Sun. I’m from New Zealand which means my Christmas is all about sunshine, barbecues and the beach and I’m here to share a few of the goodies [...]
