Holiday Happenings

Hey ya ho ho ya! 

 Please join me over at A Creative Day today.  

I'm getting my craft on with a little tutorial 

on how to jazzel up your basic balsam wreath with paint and magic.

Gilding the lily wreath.

Hop on over and get the 411 and be sure to check out the entire 

Christmas DIY Series Eileen has created.

Besides making a wreath, 

I've been decorating like an elf on powdered sugar every spare moment I can.

I figured there's always a first time for TINSEL, so I had to bust out the colored lights too.  

 I started building up my winter layer... nom nom.

 Been participating in my favorite winter sport that requires hot toddies...

 and I found one of my favorite things from my childhood 

in a random Five & Dime in New Hampshire this weekend... 

a little balsam incense smoker house.  

I just had to have it, happy childhood memories and probably the beginnings of my indoor pyromania.

Peace and nutcrackers!
