Good morning! I truly can’t believe that we have less than a week until Christmas. Eek! This year has flown! One of our favorite things to do each holiday season is to count down the days. ha!

Downton Abbey Tea Party & Homemade Biscuit {Recipe}

This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment , but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #DowntonAbbeyAtWalmart http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV

Good morning! Today is the 19th of December, kind of a special time for our family. :) Today would of been my Grandmother’s 88th birthday! If you knew my Grandmother, you would know that she loved all things fancy & girly! Which was funny since she was the mom to 5 boys! Thank goodness she had tons of granddaughters. ha! She had a porcelain doll collection that was out of this world with all their fancy dresses. Annnnnd one of our favorite things to do was have a fancy tea party with her little dishes at the small table that was just our size in her kitchen.

That’s why I thought having a “grown up” tea party for me & a few girlfriends using my Grandmother’s fancy dishes would be a great way to celebrate her & the release of the Downton Abbey DVD. This movie is ah-mazing! All the characters that you grew to love in the series are all back together. The film starts off where the series left off, so you will find your favorite characters in the Crawley estate in brand new situations ~ including a visit with the king & queen! Let me show you how I set up this fun Downton Abbey Tea Party. Annnnd I have a homemade biscuit recipe for you, too. Let’s get started! :)

This week I’ve been painting trim, working on some outdoor projects and just last week we finished up in my daughter’s room with one last final touch ~ wallpaper! :) I love the wallpaper trend, and I hope it sticks around for a long time! Pun intended. :) Let me show you how easy it was transform my daughter’s room with wallpaper from Photowall.

25+ Personalized Christmas Ideas with Cricut

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine.

Good morning! I’m back! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving break. Annnnd look here comes Christmas! :) A few weeks ago I shared my cute personalized stocking tutorial made with my Cricut Explore Air 2 and my cute EasyPress Mini with you. I talked about how much I love to personalize those holiday moments, about our family’s stocking tradition & how easy that was to do with my Cricut family of products. Well, guess what? Some of my favorite Cricut bloggers were all given that exact same assignment ~ to share a personalized Christmas project & to share the meaning or story behind it & the tutorial. I love that each of us took our own spin to that fun topic. Annnnnd today I’d love to show off some of my fellow Cricut bloggers with these 25+ Personalized Christmas Ideas with Cricut. Let’s get started! :)
