Tuesday's Features!

Thanks to everyone who clicked the water!  Keep them coming!  Such an easy way to make a difference!

Sewing

Looking for a Christmas gift for your puppy?  Or maybe your giving a puppy as a gift (Oh, you brave and wonderful Mother you).  Well Schwin and Schwin made a doggy bed tutorial for you!  {I can't wait for their Project Toddler Runway to start!}

Isn't this beautiful?  {I know it's white.  I know it's after labor day.  But with something this pretty --- WHO CARES?!?} :) Elle Apparel has it on her blog.

Preppy Mom shared this Anthro scarf tutorial a little while back.  I'm loving the coat too!


Cute huh? {WARNING: I AM ON A RED & WHITE/PEPPERMINT KICK TODAY.  YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.} Road Theory made these PB knock off's. 


Craftiness is not optional made this super pretty pointsetta tree skirt.  And saved herself almost $200! WOW! 

Crafts
Fabulous.  I know.  I am trying SOOOO hard not to run out and buy candy canes and a wreath to make one because I have 1,000,000,000,000 other things that I need to do.  {Seriously, that many - it's sad.}  Crafty sisters made this one and the how to is on their {fantastic} blog.


Uncommon turned her BOO apothecary jars into this cute joy set.  I'm all for dual purpose!!
Lipstick and Laundry (which reminds me I have a bunch to do today...) made these primitive candy canes.  And she made them smell yummy too!
So I was never really a wreath person until I started seeing all these fantastic wreathes that people are making.  And this one is NO exception.  Bluebird has a beautiful blog and shows you how to make this pom pom wreath.  {I want one for each holiday. Reds/pinks for Valentines, shades of green for St. Patricks, red/white/blue.  Heck I want a different colored one for each month.} Oh yes.  Make my to do list 1,000,000,000,001.
I say the word love alot.  I love this I love that.  I'm loving these.  So I'm going to tell you that I incredibly lust after this tree.  {You all know I'm a sucker for themes...}  Vintage -- check. Meaningful -- check. Themed -- check.  Cost effective -- CHECK! :) Head over to Bargain Hoot!  NOW!!

Printables

Is Santa writing a letter to your kids?  He maybe using this site, Free Christmas Letters. You know, Santa's all for free stuff too.

But he also may have gone here.  They have 3 letters to chose from.

Kayla delivers MORE free pirntables at her site Crafty Kayla.

At Second Street made this believe banner for you all.  And I just had to show off her mantle that I love really, really, really like.

I adore this.  Simple.  Cute.  A favorite song of mine.  Get it at Madigan Made.

Food

Buggie and Jellybean has a recipe for cakey sugar cookies.  They look like Loft House.  I'm hoping that's what they taste like.  I'll be trying these out!


Ain't she crazy posted about these candy cane brownie bites.  Yea I thought that they sounded good too.

Aren't these beautiful?  I'm adoring, lusting oh, forget it, loving them!!! I would just put them in a dish in our living room.  And if  anyone touches it....ohhh they'd be in for it.  Bake at 350 made them (duh...she's so good even Pioneer Woman asked her to decorate cookies)
She had me at brownie and then the word Oreo followed and I was all ohhh ahhh. Picky Palate does it again!
Sprinkle Bakes made these snowball cookies.  And are you loving that glass milk carton as much as I am?  For Real.  {That's my son's phrase right now.} And her pictures are super.  Everything looks so darn yummy.
Talk to you all tomorrow!!
