Rustic Wood Initial Place Cards

Hello!

Are you excited that Thanksgiving is next week!?

I can’t wait!!!

Maybe I’m so excited because I like to eat…spend time with my family…or because I don’t have to cook :)

Since I’m not cooking I volunteered to help make some rustic inspired place cards this year.

Head on over to My Crafty Spot to see the full tutorial today!

2014 Holiday Cocktail Party Blog Hop

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…ok maybe not but isn’t the idea that Christmas is right around the corner super exciting!?

One of my favorite things about the holidays is getting together with family and friends and sharing a few laughs and lots of cocktails.

Or maybe I meant a few cocktails and lots of laughs…

You get the idea :)

Christmas time = cocktails!

And boy do I have a fun cocktail recipe to share with you in today’s recipe segment…

Zucchini Cranberry Bites

Hello!

It’s never too early to start planning your holiday parties.

From the decorations, to the cocktails and the food…it’s enough to drive anyone a little cray cray!

And who really has time to make an elaborate food spread!?

Well…if you do kudos to you :)

But if you are anything like me a simple 3 ingredient recipe is always the way to go.

Especially during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

In today’s recipe segment Danielle has seriously made the easiest holiday appetizer recipe ever!

Fall Home Tour Blog Hop

Happy Friday!

Have you started you started decorating for Christmas yet?

I’d be lying if I said I haven’t.

And here’s why I decorate early:

1.) The sooner it goes up the longer I get to enjoy it…and once Christmas is over I’m ready for it to come down.

2. It lets me fully enjoy the holiday season…because I don’t have to stress about when I’ll get my decorating done.

3. In case I need to buy anything new the selection isn’t completely picked over.

4. And I just LOVE my Christmas décor so much!

So…hate me if you must because I am one of “those people” that puts my stuff up early :)

But before we switch into Christmas mode around here I thought we could revisit my Fall Home Tour…as well as a few other blogger’s in today’s…

So let me share some of these bumps with you today…

How-To Make Your Own Shower Curtains

Good Morning!

As you know I am participating in the One Room Challenge 6-week link party.

{Or if you are not sure what I’m rambling on about click here :)}

One of our tasks for this project was to make a shower curtain.

Now I know you are probably thinking “they sell lots of shower curtains in stores these days” and you are correct…

But for this remodel we decided to have an extra long shower curtain to create the ambiance of a spa, and make the bathroom appear larger.

So DIY shower curtain it is!
