Week Ending (December 16)

Happy Sunday lovely! How are your Christmas plans going? Its only days away now so I hope you're ready to celebrate. No matter how organised we feel there's always last minute things to do and this weeks list is full of fun and quick ideas.
Lets see what made this weeks list:

• First up are these Origami Christmas Trees from Martha Stewart. A few of these on the dining table would look great and them seem easy enough. As always Martha includes a photo step by step tutorial to help you achieve the best result.
• I did mention these Snow Globe Ornaments the other day but if you missed that post then head over to Sarah's and check them out. They are super cute and I may have crocheted a couple for our tree :)
• Looking for Christmas place mats? These Reindeer Place Mats are so adorable and the kids will love them. You could whip a batch of these up quickly and they would look fantastic in some traditional Christmas colours to match your table decor.

• The end of year parties are coming up, so quick and easy recipes like these Toasted Pecan Snowballs are fantastic. These sound absolutely delicious and they're made in one bowl so less clean up for you...bonus!
• If you need a last minute gift idea, I love this Dresdren Wall or Table Quilt. Grab your Christmas fabrics and make a present that will be treasured for years to come or sew one for your own table as a stunning centre piece.

• I love this idea- dress up your mason jars with these gorgeous Gift Baskets. Aren't they sweet? If you're gifting ingredients for cookie making etc. or filling jars with your own baking, these baskets add such a wonderful touch and they look fantastic. 
• And lastly, these Winter Snowflake Baby Booties are so cute. They would be perfect for baby's first Christmas and in the years to follow you could hang them on the Christmas tree. Its a free pattern so enjoy!

And that's it for another week. :)

Next week is a big week for us. Our son (our baby) graduates high school on Wednesday - it feels like only yesterday he started Kindergarten.  He's an amazing boy with so many talents and he's looking forward to all the challenges and opportunities of College next year. So so proud of you Cohen ♥ I hope you and Marnie enjoy your Graduation Dinner :)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Happy Week Ending :)
