christmas

i LOVE christmas more than anything. i could be an elf.

1) check out this lovely way to wrap gifts! i'm definitely going to be using that diy.
i mean how cute is that?! PLUS christmas fabric is on sale at most fabric stores.
2) CHRISTMAS CARAMEL POPCORN? yes yes yes
i could probably eat all of it. but oh well!

3) I have a goal of learning how to knit during this christmas break. if anyone has any tips, throw em over :)
i'm just sayin'...those look cute AND comfy!

4) end of march is having a giveaway for a winter themed zine! howww cute!! go enter! 
i'm crossin' my fingers! 

5) i'm gonna convince my dad to help me make some of these bottles of twinkle lights because i think they would look nice all throughout winter


6) how does olivia from everyday musings make EVERYTHING look good? her christmas extravaganza looks like it was so much fun! i'm gonna make myself some hot chocolate with candy canes tonight...mmm




and i LOVE that wrapping paper ! goodness. you should all check out her blog

7) how to make your own bow! so much prettier than the ones bought at the store (in my opinion)

8) lastly, if you are looking for a REALLY good christmas mix. well, thankfully angela made TWO. and i'm hear to tell you they've been on repeat for weeks.
&
go listen !

alright...i guess here is where i should explain why i've been gone. it's actually pretty easy to explain...two words. FINALS WEEK. i was studying non stop for finals. and while i'm at, i was studying non stop ALL semester long. it's been a tough one you guys. but i'm proud to say that it all paid off! and hopefully next semester won't be so time consuming because i missed blogging. i'll be back tomorrow with my wishlist :)
