I popped into Ikea yesterday to scope out living room chairs. I left without the chairs, but look at all these holiday goodies I picked up. I had to stop myself from buying out the entire Christmas section of the store. Seriously, there is so much holiday cuteness there this year. I plan to use these on my dining room table. Can't you see them filled with tiny glass ornaments? I couldn't resist these little...
Happy to say I survived the craft fair last weekend. It was a great day. I sold a bunch of items and met some lovely people.

As I mentioned a few posts back, I'm doing a craft show next month. I haven't done one in over 5 years. I'm nervous and excited all at once. Thankfully, it has really helped to get my creative juices flowing again. Here are a few things I whipped up over the weekend. I think these little wood spoons are my favorite.
