A Cheerful Wreath

Hello everyone! I hope you are all having a great start to the New Year. Personally, I'm still recovering from the very busy holiday season. 

It's quite bittersweet, taking down the decorations and waiting until next season for the festivities. I saw this wreath at the store and thought it could be a nice blah to TADA! craft inspiration:

It's made of colorful pompoms that can be hung at home or in your workspace all year round. TADA!

Best Day

Let's start the New year with a beautiful quote:

Have a good week everyone!

Happy New Year

It's a brand new year! May calm and creativity fill our homes always.  

Cheers everyone!

How To: Rose Water Mist

If you're feeling a little stressed (especially this holiday season) and you want to take a "me moment", do it with some Rose Water Mist. Rose water soothes and refreshes the skin.

The recipe comes from this book:

• Fll a clean spray bottle with rose water and store it in the fridge. You can find rose water at the international aisle of most grocery or healthfood stores.
• When you need a quick pick-me-up, just take the bottle, relax into your seat, close  your eyes, then mist your face.
• Take deep breaths and have a few relaxing moments all to yourself.

Merry Christmas

To you and yours,

Wishing you comfort and joy, abundance and laughter, gratitude and hope.

Cheers,
Claire 

Felt Gingerbread Men

Well hello there! I spied this idea at Anthropologie:

See the little gingerbread men hanging on to the mug's handle? I thought it was cool to make these if you had some scraps of felt, construction paper or cardstock. They make cute gift embellishments! I think it's blah to TADA!

A Christmas Stocking

Last week, I featured a wreath make-over. Today, let's give this stocking a new look:

It's a felt stocking that I paired with a Santa ornament. I didn't even buy any of these. They were part of the packaging of some gifts I received. I thought they looked good together. 

This year, I'm changing the look:

I added a Teddy Bear (a freebie at a party), wrapped an empty box to look like a present, and completed the look with a ribbon. TADA!

With a little bit or recycling and resourcefulness, you don't need to spend a lot for decorations.
