Peg’s Gotta Do!

Posted on December 2, 2013 by Pillows A-La-Mode

In my book, winter has arrived! I changed the calendar to December, the house is decorated for Christmas, I’ve heard some of my favorite carols, and the falling snow magically appeared on my blog (thank you, WordPress!). And, to add the perfect scent, I can use these lovely homemade holiday sprays I won from a giveaway on Peg’s Gotta Do! If you haven’t visited Peg’s blog yet, you must check out her fun creations, such as this hot cocoa gift cone bag, paper Christmas wreath, cupcake stand, bird seed wreath, and award-winning triceratops costume. She also has a brand new Etsy shop! Thank you, Peggy! ♥

I put up my Nativity yesterday and today the tree! I’m glad WordPress thinks it’s winter too.

    Thanks. It’s shaping up. We’re in a big city now so there are beautiful decorations available everywhere. Also it’s our first Christmas with a disposable income and I’m spending it on lights and shiny things.

Thanks Kathleen. I stopped by Peg’s gotta do. Enjoyed it very much. My living room looks like Christmas threw up everywhere. You have to make a mess to make things look nice right??? 😦

    I agree! I got a ‘gingerbread’ oil for my oil burner and it smells amazing! I’m about to crack open the cinamon candle too!
