my favorite thing about today #20

My favorite thing about today was having a date with my friend Casey. I crafted while she addressed Christmas cards. She’s way more organized than I am. I’ve yet to even attempt Christmas cards and this will be Christmas #3 as a married couple. The way I see it….why set a precedent and make people think I’ll remember to send cards every year when I probably won’t? Aim low and nobody will ever be disappointed right? Anyway, I broke out the Christmas decor (even though we haven’t gotten our tree yet – Sunday will be the big day I hope) and my crafting was holiday themed too. Hopefully I’ll get to post pictures soon, but for now here’s a bit of Christmas inspiration for you.


textures + earth tones + natural elements + a dash of traditional Christmas with a rustic twist
= my perfect christmas decor
