Christmas Bedroom
Do you decorate your bedroom for the Holidays? I do, and there’s nothing I love more than falling asleep to twinkle lights in a Christmas bedroom. I was a bit hesitant to post my Christmas bedroom; not because I don’t love it (I SO DO!), but because my bedding and decor aren’t as fancy as interior design bloggers’.

Let me tell you, this took SOOOOO LOOOOONG!
Don’t forget November/December birthdays! Give them a Birthday tree!
Do you have loved ones with the unfortunate luck of having a November or December birthday? Where their special day gets lost in the chaos that is the Christmas Season? Celebrate their special day by changing up your Holiday decor and giving them a Birthday tree! We have a November baby in this house. A late November baby…. and a Mom with very little self-control when it comes to all things Christmas, so it’s definitely a struggle to make her
Rounded top lantern
A single board of rough pine, a light-weight saw and you have the only known DIY versions of these rounded top Christmas lanterns anywhere on Pinterest! I’ve got another Holiday decor item for you today! This one I’m pretty excited about because I haven’t seen any other DIY’s anywhere – so I think that I’m the “first to market” per se. Well, except for the giant manufacturing company that came up with the original idea and sells their version of
