{Mercury Glass} Christmas Hurricane

 How do you decorate your coffee table? 

I've been de-reddening my Christmas decor downstairs, so I needed a new something for the center of the living room.

Vintage Tablescape {Christmas Card Placemats}

 Do you save your Christmas cards year after year?

I have been saving mine for 20+ years. There is a big sack of them in my craft closet, so I decided to do something with them this year.

5 {Christmas Mantle} DIY projects

My work was cut out for me when I decided to change 
my Christmas color scheme this year! 
The front door and porch were the first to be done. 

Glittery Iced {Christmas Mantle}

 "O come let us adore HIM

CHRIST the Lord"...

Christmas Porch {Garland}

 It's December, 

and the white lights are aglow!

The countdown is on as we prepare our hearts to celebrate 

the birth of the Light of the World! 

Winter White {Christmas Wreaths}

 I am going for a white Christmas this year!

Translation....

I need to redo most of my Christmas decorations! 

I'm ready for a change, so we'll see how much stuff I can make between now and Christmas Eve!

{Homemade Granola} in a Jar

I am a HUGE fan of Granola!

I began making it myself when I was trying to lower my sugar intake.

 I found that the store bought granola was always

 WAY TOO SWEET for my tastes.   

I also like to vary the ingredients and try different combinations.
