A craft, food, fashion, home & shopping blog

Found this cutie on Pinterest.  I printed it onto vintage sheet music and added it to a frame.  I forgot the site it's originally from, but if you search for reindeer silhouette on Pinterest, it should come up. It's free!

And P.S., if you've noticed my posts lately have been short and sweet, it's because I've been having serious computer issues.  Boo!
I did a system restore yesterday and all seems to be okay now - fingers crossed. 

Between my computer and the horrible weather here, I haven't been able to create anything worth blogging about.  I'm going to recharge over the weekend and hopefully have better luck next week.

Christmas, of course.  Sharing some random holiday decorations from about the house.
Reindeer pillows from Home Goods.
I love breaking out this plaid quilt every year.  Pillow covers from H&M.
Noel basket with vintage ornaments.
Santa boots on the porch.
Tray filled with shredded sheet music and Dollar store deer.
I'm so mad for plaid!
Ikea metal stars in a tart tin.  
Snowmen!
Vintage typewriter with a homemade flash card and Santa postcard.
Silver and gold mercury glass.
And finally our tree.  Can you figure out how tall my boys are?  I still have to re-arrange and spread out some of their "touches."

**Don't forget to enter my giveaway here.**
Just sharing some small Christmas projects I slipped in over the long weekend.  Try as I might, I just couldn't get too many great shots of these Christmas houses I got from Hobby Lobby last month.
I decided to paint them black since I already did some smaller ones white and silver.  Plus, I'll get to use them next year for Halloween too!
I gave each a couple of coats of black acrylic paint, and then added some faux tealight candles.  We have them on a ledge in front of our front window.
I've had these Christmas trees for years.  This is the first time I've grouped them together.  What the heck took me so long?!
I used some salt and pepper shakers to make mini "snow globes." The photos are hard to make out but they are vintage Christmas images from The Graphics Fairy.

Lots more mini projects in the works.

**This giveaway is now closed**

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  Now that I've recovered from stuffing myself at my Mom's, it's time for a little fun.
The folks at ScentSicles were kind enough to send me some eco-friendly scented ornaments that make artificial trees smell real - and real trees smell that much better.  And oh boy, do they smell a-ma-zing!
Made of natural fibers sourced from sustainable resources and infused with pure fragrance, ScentSicles offer a no-mess, no-flame, simple way to make artificial holiday greenery smell real.  I was floored to find out they were made by a NASA scientist and happy to share that they are made in the USA.  Even better - ScentSicles last for 30 days.
Okay, so who wants to get their hands on their very own ScentSicles gift box?  The folks at ScentSicles were also kind enough to provide me with a gift box for one lucky winner!
