peppermint garland in 20 minutes fast!
Happy Monday !
Today we are half way to Christmas. I could say that I am on top of everything, but truth be told, I've got nothing or at least feel like I am way behind. My to do list is growing, the days are counting down. Panic should be setting in, but instead we find ourselves listening to Christmas music, baking cookies and spending time together. Today we hung up our Peppermint Garland. It was so easy to make... just maybe 20 minutes start to finish with our kit. It makes our home feel like the holidays and is perfect for dangling at work and on your Christmas tree too. It looks perfect with our Holly Berry Garland too! Afterwards, to avoid tangling, wrap around a piece of cardboard to save and enjoy for many years to come.

paper snowflakes
It's COLD here in Utah and snow flurries fluttered down from the sky all day yesterday, making this the perfect time to introduce our paper snowflakes... I love the white, love the red buttons and red & white bakers twine!
I think the perfect back drop to a simple snowflake is the green of a Christmas tree. Add touches of red and you have just created yourself a Merry Christmas! Our Paper Snowflakes Kit come in a kit of six and are available online and in store... beautiful ornaments or gift tags on a special package. All supplies are also sold separately in the store.
Have a wonderful day!
