Happy Thursday everyone!
Today is the 17th. That means a few things:
#1) I am attending a wedding today as a 100% guest. Woo~hoo!
#2) Christmas is just over a week away!
#3) It is the last day to order anything from our etsy shop if want it by Christmas with normal shipping rates. And- all Christmas items are 10% [...]
I just spotted this on Snippet and Ink and had to share right away! This winter soiree was created by JM Flora, Merriment Events and Open Air Photography. It is absolutely lovely! The use of sheet music, craft paper, keys, tags and mercury glass is dreamy. Maybe I should re-do all of my Christmas decor…

Hands down, one of my favorite days of Christmastime is when we go get a tree. Picking out “the one”, covering the floor in needles, rediscovering ornaments that have been boxed away all year and watching my husband proudly beam once the lights are all working and placed perfectly. It is all a bit magical.

Wow. That week got away from me.
I am super super excited right now because we are about to head down to Balboa Park for San Diego’s December Nights. If you are a San Diegan, you must check it out: choirs, international food, lights and, my personal favorite: fresh gingerbread men and hot chocolate. It is [...]
Growing up, one of my favorite Christmas traditions was my family’s advent calendar. It was a big cloth banner hanging on the wall- each pocket held a mini candy cane. I loved grabbing the candy cane out of the pocket each day on my way to school. Last year, I bought materials to make one, [...]
