Deckin' the halls

Christmas decorating has officially begun, at my home. And it has only taken 3 days. (Usually it takes two, but I've been feeling a little lazy lately).

My sister-in-law has been selling these banner kits and let me tell ya...I love them! Majority of the work is done for me and I don't have the clean up. Which is ALWAYS a plus in my book!

She sells the "Merry Christmas" kit for $13 un-assembled and $18 for assembled.

You can also buy a kit that only says "Christmas" for $10 un-assembled and $15 assembled.

The kits come with all of the ribbons, the papers (cut-out), and letters (cut-out). The instructions are super easy to follow, also!

Let me know if you would like a kit, and I'll place the order with her!

Some of my favorite things that I've been seeing and reading on the blogs lately, are all of the Christmas decorating house tours! I'm a sucker for a look-see in any one's home, anytime. Except for one of those homes on that A&E show, Hoarders. (shudder)

I'm lovin' these apothecary jars! Stick some fake gifts, or ornaments inside...magnificent!

See the crystal snowflake ornament? Yesterday I went to Rod Works. Which is trouble for me. I am physically incapable of leaving that store with out buying something. It's a sickness.

Well, anyways...this crystal snowflake beckoned me. It lured me in with it's shiny goodness. The tramp!

Oooooooo! Awwwwww!

More Christmas eye-candy to come!

And a give-away! It is gift giving season.
