Saturday Link Love

The tree is up and we have been listening to our favorite Christmas music.  Our plans for this weekend are to put new flooring in our dinning room/kitchen and hopefully get the outdoor lights in place.  I hope you are getting your home ready for Christmas.  Here are a few fun links I found this week to help you get in the mood.  Everything Etsy has put together a collection of 101 cute Christmas ornaments.  I want to try making these string ornaments...how cute and easy!

Fantastic Toys





Lots of cute Christmas themed cut-outs that you can buy and print at Fantastic toys and I LOVE the milk and cookies for Santa that Sweetapolita shows you how to make.  Have a great weekend.  I hope your house is filled with love and laughter as you get ready for the holidays!

Here are my fun finds this week.

I have always kept some kind of journal but I am fascinated by this new style of 'journaling'.  Need to stock up on some moleskins and dive in!  Lots of inspiration and help getting started at Paper Relics.
