VINTAGE SPOON GIFT TAGS

Here is a simple and fun idea for your Christmas gift tags.....

look for Christmas related vintage cutlery at thrift stores through the year, drill a small hole and loop some ribbon through and tie to a gift.

You can use metal stamps to etch names in the cutlery or alternatively use a sharpie.

Oh sooooo cold here on the West Coast....I'm afraid we really aren't used to it!!!

Hoping you are all keeping warm!

BOTTLE BRUSH TREES

Well, I am in full Christmas mode now!!!!  We even got a little dusting of snow last night with ?more on its way today (we are hoping!!).  The boys have their skiis out and are ready to go!!!!

I have always loved vintage bottle brush trees, but have NEVER been able to find any......

Last year I noticed tutorials all over blogland for bleaching trees....this is my version of those projects.

Displayed in little embellished pieces found at the thrift store they are an adorable addition to your Christmas decor.

Have a great day my blogging friends!

FESTIVE NEST SENDS A BIG THANK YOU!!!!

What an AMAZING weekend we had at the Festive Nest!!!!!!

A big thank you to all of you for coming out to support, encourage and inspire us!!!!!  And an extra big thank you to Angela, Lily, Noelle, Jill, Heather, little Lily, and Ang's parents for ALL the hard work that went in to making this event such a big success!

 We all had so much FUN that we are planning to open the barn up for one more weekend in December....not sure which one yet, but will keep you posted.

 PS...The idea for my SANCTUARY signs came from Burlap Luxe the most delicious and enchanting blog ever!
