Tiny Hands Christmas Ornaments

Just wanted to pop in real quick and show you  these Christmas hand ornaments I made for the girls last year. I was inspired because I love hand and footprints in their memory books...they are so teeny! So I thought it would be so cute to  make them with felt and hang them on the tree.

Gift Wrap Ideas: Day 2

Using paper + Material  Embellishments

I love the simplicity of these wrapping ideas because they can be made from such everyday and natural materials. And I like the purity of neutral color schemes. It is calming, peaceful...just beautiful. 

(And you don't need to sew to make them...YIPPEE!)

Oh My Word Y'all!

I can not believe we are upon the HOLIDAY SEASON!

I mean...

THANKSGIVING is TOMORROW!  

And I don't know about any of you but we decorate the day after Turkey Day which is so fun that I almost want to climb up in the attic and haul everything down right this instant!

But I will maintain some self control since THAT job belongs to the HUBSTER.

I will just makes things pretty. :)

In the meantime, I have been trying to come up with some fun ideas for gift wrap.  

Are they all practical?  

Maybe.  Maybe not.  

Some may be a teeny tiny bit ambitious.  

Some are a bit whimsical.  

Some are just unique and simple.

But totally worth checking out.

 Here is a sneak peek of day one...

Oooohhh...I can hardly wait!

Last Minute Turkey Craft for Kids

Today, us girls had a play date with my good friend Jenny and her sweet as pie kids.  Yes, I am mentioning once again that my good friend Jenny is the one who did the UP costume on Halloween.  Officially, this is the last time I will mention it. The end.

Anyway, her adorable kids came over and we played outside but stopped to do a quick craft for Thanksgiving.

 Wooden Spoon Turkeys!

I originally got the idea from the great blog Ramblings of a Crazy Woman.  I was excited to do this and only changed it up slightly from what she did.  I am planning on bringing this craft for all the kids to do on Thanksgiving Day.

It is super easy if you prepare it ahead and put all the materials in separate bags.  Then, all you will need is glue for the actual craft on Turkey Day. My goal is to NOT use paint.
