I will be taking a break to do a little wrapping, baking and gingerbread house making….

I wish you the happiest of holidays from our house to yours….

See you in 2011!!!

I love holiday crafts…especially ones I can do with my kids!

These candy ornaments are the perfect craft for the attention spans of a 4 year old and 7 year old…

To top it off….the end result is pretty!

A couple weeks ago, I won a giveaway on Fabulous Fun Finds…SO EXCITED!  Winning is obviously lots of fun….but it is even more fabulous when your winnings include this little number…

and this…

I received the Three Musketeers Rosette Headband in black.   It is absolutely beautiful and so well made.  I also got the Don’t Buy Me Flowers Rosette Statement Bracelet in grey.  It matches everything.  It can be casual and is perfect for going out as well!

It is going to get a lot of use this season…and I can’t wait!
