CHRISTMAS IS APPROACHING [VINTAGE WINTER WHITE TREE]

Pin It Now! I hope and pray everyone had an awesome Thanksgiving! I ate way to many carbs! :) But I'm thinking Monday will be a good day to get back on track with a healthy eating plan?!?! Right? RIGHT!
It won't be very long (3 weeks and some change to be exact) til CHRISTMAS! Is it just me or did this year fly by? I mean REALLY FLY BY!?
Well nevertheless, the holidays are here and it's truly my FAVE!!! I am not done with my Christmas decorating but I have managed to get the tree and mantle done....and I love it!
My vintage inspired wintery white tree with pops of soft blue and red...

Still need to get my star topper, but I love it's cottage-like vibe! I may add a tad more blue and red but I usually end up making ornaments so I always leave some spots open on my tree for some add ons!

We all picked out our yearly ornament! Can you tell which one is mine and which one is for the Hubby?

Last years tree with turquoise, red and white that you can see here was one of my favorites ever, but this year I was feeling something a little more simple and soft.

*SIGH* Just makes me smile!

How's your decorations coming along? New scheme this year or sticking with the same?

I'd love to see!

SHRINKY DINKS {ARE BACK}: PHOTO ORNAMENT

Pin It Now!

I am loving how this photo ornament turned out!
 

So so so easy to make! The hardest part is deciding what you wanna "shrink"!

This is just a glimpse of my Christmas decor!

A holiday home tour is on the way, along with many other wonderful bloggers (anticipation has set in).

Back to the ornament...

It is a printable shrinking plastic that I bought at hobby lobby for 6.99 with 40% off coupon. The instructions are great and super easy peasy! I trimmed them with twine and accented with teal raffia ( gosh, I just love teal), a red pom pom and sequin.

I wanna make more!!!!

Do you like?!

*ahhhh* just loving the holidays,
