Winding Down and Gearing Up!

It's kind of an oxymoron---I'm winding down my Gratitude Month and gearing up for Holiday Gifting! I've been on a bit of a hiatus this month since I've been posting a gratitude card everyday. I hope that you all have been enjoying them! Have you been reaching out to those you love and sharing your gratitude with them alongside me?

Now it's time for me to start getting ready for the busiest time---Christmas! For some of you, you may be celebrating Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule, or maybe Festivus, but whatever you choose to celebrate, I'd like to wish you the Happiest of Seasons! I'd also love to help you make this a Crafty Little Christmas and so the month of December will be all about sharing the love of Crafting with others and feeling good about those DIY projects you choose to take on!

Here's a look at some of the fun projects I've been working on preparing for the holidays:

Hot Chocolate Packets

Gift Card Holders

Hand Sanitizer Holders

Holiday Chocolates

Gift Tags

So as you can see, I've been pretty busy getting my Christmas Giftables done early!

Now, here's my gift to you---for the next few Tuesdays and Thursdays, I'll feature one of these little gems so you can learn how to DIY in time for your Holiday Gifting! Stay tuned and better yet, click on the Subscribe button at the top of the page so you can be sure to not miss out on these upcoming goodies!

Top 10 Tuesday: 12 Days of Christmas Movies

Well, so instead of a Top 10, I'm changing it to a Top 12! Because I love The Twelve Days of Christmas and I love Christmas movies and why not combine both together to make it 12 Days of Christmas Movies!? I suppose we each all have our own opinions as to what Christmas Movies are *must-haves* on our Watch List, but I would like to think there are some that just generally required, by public agreement. So, here's my Top 12 Days of Christmas Movies List, complete with a FREE Printable so you can make this a Holiday Bucket List Item, if you'd like! I'd love to hear if your favorite movie made the cut or not! OH---and one more thing---these movies are certainly not listed in an specific order, they are more in the order in which I may or may not have already watched them... (#SorryNotSorry!) 12. The Santa Clause (1994) When this movie first came out, I was totally entranced by the interpretation of the North Pole, courtesy of Disney Magic, that I almost bel

Podcast Episode 4: Accountability

How many of you feel like you're on a never-ending hamster wheel, just running and running and running? Do you blame the wheel for moving too fast or too slow? Do you blame the cage for not having any space? Or do you figure out that you need to stop, get off the wheel and get out of the cage to endless space? I think we all have those seasons in our lives where we easily blame the wheel or the cage. And the difference between staying on the wheel and blaming it for staying on it and stopping, getting off and getting OUT is our ability to take accountability. Take a listen to this week's podcast and let me know if it inspires you to stop running on the wheel and instead, figure out how to stop, get off the wheel, and get out of the cage.

Lent 2020: Day Two

Today's post is brought to you by...COFFEE. I'm not going to lie, I really did consider giving up coffee for Lent, but when I mentioned it to one of my best friends, his response was "well, I'll see you in 40 days!" I was kind of shocked at his lack of support, but then I read a post that was shared with me regarding Lent and some "food for thought" and one of the bullet points read "Don't give up coffee. Jesus will forgive you, but your family might not." Well---I heard God loud and clear on that one. Don't give up coffee. And I'm so very glad I did not. See today, I had a TON of things to accomplish. We're gearing up for a big weekend and I had quite the laundry list to do. Not only was my laundry list (and my laundry basket) huge, but I didn't sleep well last night. I had a very restless husband, so I put myself out on the couch. Which wasn't terrible, but it wasn't exactly great, either. So I already
