The sound of bells around Christmas evokes feelings of happiness and peacefulness for me. One of my favorite holiday songs is “The Carol of the Bells.” When I saw these bell ornaments, I was immediately drawn to them. I really like the contrast of the deep blue and white, and the detail of the lace pattern.
One of my favourite things to do during the holidays is bake—be it plum-nut cake, cranberry bread, or batches upon batches of cookies. Warming the house with scents of nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla puts anyone in a festive mood. Sharing all of my baked goodies with loved ones and seeing how much they enjoy the treats makes all of my culinary effort especially worthwhile. These sweet Christmas Baking Tags are the perfect way to let the lucky recipients know that your baked goods were homemade with love.
I love the rich colors of the sterling, brass, and copper of this ring. The metals have been soldered, hammered, woven and polished creating a finished look that is fashionable and edgy.
If you know me for more than 5 minutes, you quickly learn that I LOVE basset hounds—their floppy ears, droopy faces, sniffing noses, and sweet dispositions. So this skiing basset hound Christmas card immediately put a smile on my face, and I’m sure it would make any recipient smile.
I will admit that I am a sucker for all things plaid—be it madras in the summertime or flannel in the winter—so I immediately fell for this red, grey, black, and yellow plaid fabric handbag. It’s simple and a nice medium size, which would make it perfect for an everyday bag, but it still has some fun detailing, such as a the contrast stitching and plaid buttons on the jute band.
