I love the smell in the house after baking homemade pies and breads which is why this orange cranberry stovetop potpourri is a favorite this time of year. This would be a perfect mix to place on the stove before a Christmas party and let the aroma fill the house.  Your guests will love it and rush to the kitchen thinking there are fresh baked

We all love getting Christmas cards in the mail but what a fun way to display them using a framed Christmas card display with string Christmas lights. I have used old frames before with wire to hang pictures, but I just love how the string Christmas lights takes this to a whole other level. I love checking the mail in December and looking for all

This sweet and sparkly cupcake ornament will have you craving cupcakes in no time! Just don’t try to eat this one right off the tree.

You can never have enough Christmas trees when you are decorating for the holidays which is why these burlap jingle bell trees are now added to my collection. I love burlap so much if you haven’t noticed yet. I have used it with several posts recently including my Thanksgiving tablescape and three tier Christmas wreaths. But I have recently found a new love for bakers

I always loved snow globes as a child and this craft brings back those fun memories of watching the snow shake around but with a Winter Wonderland in a Mason jar. This is a simple but fun way to display those miniature Christmas village trees. I found mine at the dollar store so it doesn’t get any better than that. You can also find artificial

During the winter and cold months, a peppermint sugar scrub is the perfect solution for those dry, cracked hands. I love using a scrub on my hands this time of year especially because it leaves them feeling silky smooth and actually hydrated.
