My Personal Mitten Moments

We had a good Thanksgiving although we missed our oldest son, DIL and sweet grands due to a flu bug. That ole flu bug seems to be going around from what I hear!

The University of Michigan beat Ohio State yesterday. Read that again…Michigan beat Ohio State! Go Blue!!

I’m still working on my dollhouse project. I know I haven’t updated you recently but hope to do that this week! Definitely a much bigger project than I expected. Praying Big Al and I can get it completed for Christmas!

This Week On The Blog

Because it’s been a minute since I’ve shared with you, I have two posts to share from the blog.

The first, is my post on How To Create A Festive Entryway. I joined some of my blogging friends and we shared all things home decor for Christmas.

It’s always so fun doing these type of hops and I am always inspired by my friends and what they share!

Do you love vintage ornaments? I really do! They always remind me of Christmas when I was young. This week, I shared How To Make Easy Vinage Ornaments.

They really are easy and so fun to make! You can decorate your tree with them or use them on a package as a gift tag. If you love to craft this is a must do for Christmas! If you have littles they will love these project too!

A Few Of My Favorite Moments

You all know that I am a girl that loves color and I’m definitely not afraid to use it in my home decor.

My first share comes from my blogging friend Jen at Tatertots and Jello. Jen also loves color! She created the most beautiful Colorful Light Up Christmas Village that you have ever seen!

If you want a dose of happy, do yourself a favor and visit her blog! It’s beautiful!

If you love to make homemade gifts for Christmas, I have a really beautiful one for you today! My friend, Wendy from WM Design House, shared How To Make A Hand Knit Chunky Blanket.

This is definitely on my list to make this Christmas!

Are you a fan of peppermint? Wait until you see this cake plate that my friend Leslie from My 100 Year Old Home made. She showed us How To Make A Peppermint Candy Cake Plate and it couldn’t be more festive for the holidays!
