I'll keep this short & sweet, because I know you all are busy, busy...entertaining and spending time with family and friends!
First of all, don't forget to shop handmade on your 'Black Friday' shopping spree...
I'm going to actually let you use this a day early :) Good from now until midnight Friday! I've got lots of little gifts that would be perfect for the holiday's, ornaments, gift tags...you name it!
When you check out, there should be a discount code box that you type the code into, and your 20% will automatically be taken off before you pay.
Secondly, I wanted to tell you why I've been MIA! Last week, I used this tutorial (and printable template) over at Eighteen25, to make a 2010 Christmas Planner...
So, this week, my planner has me on a tight schedule (so that I can slow down and actually enjoy Christmas when it gets here ;) I've been making Christmas gifts like a mad woman...oh I can't wait to actually share some of them with you after they are given.
Today, the girls got out of school early, so we worked on this years advent calendar...cone trees made of paper and lots of glitter...
They had paper everywhere, just the way we like it!
We'll show you the final product once it's ready to be photographed. I also found this idea (and template) here, on the eighteen25 blog. Those ladies deserve a creativity medal I tell ya ;)
Well, that's a little of what we've been up to, what about you?
HAPPY THANKSGIVING friends & don't forget to stop by the SHOP and take advantage of that discount code!
Jamie :)
I only just found your blog today (via flickr), and I am so glad I did. Totally awe inspiring! I will most certainly be back for more, and I have added you to my own blogroll so my lovely blog friends can find you too! Happy Thanksgiving to you <3
