that would be perfect for Christmas dinner!

Tis The Season

The countdown to Christmas is on! Visit A Fields Journal for this festive paper garland tutorial. I think I could do something like this hanging off every chair around the dinner table for Christmas lunch. You could even mix it up with different coloured paper or ribbons. How darling!

Holiday Decorating

Here are some inspirational decorating ideas, all of 

them from Pottery Barn, that make me very excited 

for the upcoming holidays! 

What Our Christmas Looked Like

I thought I'd share with you some pictures from our family Christmas, you might remember my aunty Trishy gave me the job of table decorations. Well, the theme was "Layers of Christmas"- we used craft paper with a red fabric runner on top, then using artist mannequin's we created a festive feature (Trishy actually made those outfits!) and interspersed it with individual vases of Christmas bush. We also used individual tags to leave a Christmas message on each plate. To create a bit of height we hung lanterns at the far end of the table and made some ivy wreaths. Surprisingly the wreaths were super easy to make.

It looks like a very "red" Christmas

Ok everyone,

due to technical difficulties I wasn't able to post this sooner...but hey! I am now so

to continue on my "Four weeks of Christmas" idea here was my final outfit.

My one-of-a-kind, self-made, one shouldered, totally RED Christmas dress!!

(p.s. photo credits to my lil sis Amber for being my last minute photog and to my daddy for having such a pretty green Mustang to pose on :D Love ya both!)

Oh How I Love Christmas

Some people are Christmas people and others ...meh.... not so much. Me, I LOVE Christmas. This year I've decided I'm going to have as much Christmas spirit as possible. Carols by Candlelight? Yes. Making stockings and decorating a tree? Check. Last weekend I bough the Christmas special of Inside Out and it doesn't disappoint. Just look at some of these beauties!
