Be Back New Years Day

I just got so swamped in family coming out and the holidays.
Be back New Years Day for an update on all the festivities.....

Day 18: Thrifty Holiday Vase

 Whew.....
I had to slow down a bit and prepare for my family to come in tomorrow.
There are still plenty of project to be shown which I will post periodically.
In the mean while here is a SUPER easy and cheap project that only takes
about 10 minutes!!! I took an apple cider bottle, one dollar wrapping paper,
scrap ribbon, one dollar flowers,  and put it all together like so. Keeping
it simple is what makes this one and I have two on display right now.

We have staying quite busy over here with these three little ones.
They have been so much fun but also very exhausting.
There is more to come later.....

Day 17: Holiday Headband

I am back with another catch up project. This was my first time ever decorating
a headband. I was going for a theatrical look that you would wear in a play. Don't
ask me why but that was vision in my head. Now to wear it.......

Day 16: Holiday Frame

Sunny Sunday today it was and that meant that I could take some decent photos
today. It was perfect weather out there so hubby and I decided to take a run to
Target where I found the most gorgeous rapping paper for just a dollar.
I couldn't wait to get back to use it in one of my project which I will be posting
later. This particular project consist of another random frame that was hanging
about. Dolling it up just a little made it a perfect fit for decor. So happy that it
didn't get thrown out....
it really came close....
be back today in a few...

Pause....

The lighting here has been awful due to cloudy days which means yucky pictures.
Don't fret because the projects are waiting to get their chance in the spotlight. :)
Hopefully tomorrow the sun will break through. Keeping fingers crossed.......

Day 15: Gift Box

Tomorrow is Friday!!!! YAAAAAY! Whew....
this week has been very long but we have made through by the grace of God.
Here is a candle box that I altered and turned it into a gift box. I envisioned candy
or something to that effect. Right now I am just using for pretty Christmas decor.


I hope that everyone is having a great time in all the holiday madness. It is crazy
out there so please be careful. The kids go on winter break after tomorrow and
will be out until the 9th of January. Oh what fun.....LOL!
See you all tomorrow!

Day 14: A Thank You (Embellishment Blog Challenge)

Hi there again!!! So I decided to once again start involving myself in a few
challenges and chose this one as my first from Embellishment Magazine. Purple
is by far the most beautiful of colors which drove me to really get this one
done. Such a pretty color combo.
Be back tomorrow with a gift box project!
