We’re getting closer to the Winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. The shadows on my wall in this post are proof that the daylight has shifted since you were last here. As I write this, it’s ten days before Christmas! It’s as if after we hit Thanksgiving, time sped up and here we […]
Back in the Winter, I showed you how I decorated for Christmas 2018 and transitioned it into Winter. I mentioned how I might share what I did the year before just to document and compare, but life happened and here we are! Christmas in July it is! So, let’s get into my DeLorean and travel […]
The cookies, treats, and food have been eaten. The tree may be on its way down this weekend, if not before. We’ve prepared for the Holiday season for at least a month – poured over our to-do list, shopped, wrapped, decorated, visited with family and friends. And in a blink of an eye it’s all […]
Today I’m thankful for the extra cash working at a craft fair for the weekend. The fair is mostly Christmas related, so it’s awesome for me to be surrounded by all that creative Christmas energy. I eat it up! The last two days have been particularly busy at the fair, and I’ve come home so […]
Today I’m thankful for the reminder of my late grandmother and how she used to give me music boxes as a young child. It was one of her favorite things she tried to pass on to her grandchildren (she had shelves full of them!). I’ll never forget that for many years, my dad would wind […]
Today I’m thankful for finally starting my Christmas shopping (I usually try to start earlier, but I’m doing DIY gifts this year, which makes things a little more simple) and for simple pleasures, like finding a bunch of glitter on the ground… View this post on Instagram A little TOO amused by all the glitter […]
For a while, I’ve thought about vlogging (still up in the air if we’ll start doing that), but Snapchat let me get some practice in last week when I documented making fudge for my Dad’s birthday. I think we need to make a drinking game for all the times I say “also” and “so“. I […]
1. Do you like to stay in your PJ’s, or dress up for Christmas? This totally depends on what we’re going to be doing that day. Normally, I stay in my pajamas if we’re not going anywhere or having company over (much like any day off for me, let’s be honest) 2. If you could […]
Lately, we’ve had warmer weather than usual for the month of December. I’ll admit that it’s been nice to walk around without a coat, much less a heavy coat, or brace myself for the beginnings of a bitter winter, but the unusual sixty degree weather is cramping my Christmas style. If I didn’t see Christmas […]
It was so nice wrapping a few presents by this gorgeous tree of mine! ^When you try to take a quick selfie at a red light and hope no one saw you… Raised by Elves, but since I’m too large to fit in the factory, I’m Santa’s assistant running errands… Snapchat: brandiesellers
