It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....!

My hubby is gone for the week on a hunting trip so I thought I would take the opportunity and decorate for Christmas! I always try to keep busy when he is away for a week. It makes the time pass for much faster, Even though he goes away a lot in the fall he always makes sure to spoil me and leave me things like cards and spa gift cards! I plan on using it this week!
My mom and sister came over tonight to help me decorate. Here is a little tour of our Christmas home. I hope this gets you into the Christmas spirit! I know I am! All I need is our tree. We will go chop on down when the hubby gets back from his trip.

love my sis

Cup-a-tea

Apparently I forgot that I really enjoy blogging since I have been a bit absent from the blogging world.
Lately I have been enjoying this cozy fall weather. I love to spend rainy evenings at home sewing with a cup of tea. I've been sewing a lot of infinity scarfs and I've made a couple tea cozies as well!
I don't have too much to share this morning...BUT....
Here are some pictures of my latest creations and photos from my high tea I had a few weeks ago.

finally got to use all my thifted vintage teacups!





love these ladies!





peach lace infinity scarf,,found this fabric in the clearance bin for $5!



Happy Sunday all! I think I am going to have to find something crafty to do after church today....I'm thinking tile coasters..I will post pics another time.
