Linky Parties & Blogs

Dec 15, 2011

If you haven't noticed, I haven't been spending much time on my blog. December is the busiest month, and by busiest I mean 12 Days of Craziness. Tomorrow we drive up to the mountains to have an early family Christmas with cousins. 

I've been joining lots of Linky parties on different blogs. I've found their a great way to advertise and find others' blogs and ideas. Here are two:

There are so many awesome places to shop for new craft supplies! Here's a guide for you on places you can shop for supplies.

The top two places for crafts. Although, sometimes they can be a bit expensive. Another GREAT place for craft supplies is, of course, Hobby Lobby.

These are my three favorites!!! Of course, we can't forget the wonderful powers of online shopping.

a Tour of My Christmas Bedroom

Dec 2, 2011

I love Christmas! I'm a total Christmas junkie. Every year I decorate my room. I'm going to share it with you!

 I hung a Santa Hat on the corner of my desk
 Fill a glass cylinder with small ornaments

 I took red and white chenille stems and twisted them together. Then I tied strips of felt and gold fabric to make a festive door decor
My mini Christmas tree with a cute mini tree skirt (red felt decorated) and my little mini presents. I used some fluff (you can use cotton balls) for the snow.

That's it! I hope you enjoyed this post. Have tons of fun decorating your house/room!
