Happy Monday!
Did you gets lots accomplished this weekend? I certainly did!
Most of what I did revolved around getting ready for Christmas.
I crafted lots of new items for my shop…
I spent time creating a holiday decorating plan for a client. Decorating with these pieces will be fun!
I picked up this magazine while running through Home Depot. If you’re looking for some Christmas inspiration this is definitely a magazine you want to buy.
And, I decided how I was going to decorate my Christmas Tree and wrap my gift this year!
Originally I was thinking of a black, red and white theme but decided to go with a more colorful and artist look after stumbling upon this inspiration photo.

I love these jeweled toned colors and was inspired to pull out the mosaic ornaments I made about 9 years ago. Yes, I sat in front of the TV for nights on end and swirled paint inside about 90 clear glass ornaments.
Here’s a look at my theme …
I’m planning on decorating my tree with nothing but my collection of mosaic ornaments and maybe a few solid silver ornaments buried deep in the tree to add some extra shine and shimmer.
I’m going to wrap all my gifts in solid colored paper and use contrasting color ribbons as the accent.
Oh how I love ribbon and wrapping!
I’ll be using these festive paper plates,
and this thrift store sweater in fun ways. Stay tuned!
Every year I try to do something different with my decor, investing in only a few new things and re-using what I have in new ways. Even though we’ll be traveling for Christmas and I’ll be busy as all get-out between now and then, I can’t wait for the tree to go up and the lights to sparkle!
So, did anyone else have Christmas on their mind over the weekend?
I’ll be sharing the first of my holiday gift guides later this week so make sure to come back for a visit.
