Hey friends! I hope you had a great week!
I want to thank everyone for all the comments, emails, and messages expressing condolences for the passing of my mother in law. Times like this remind me how fortunate I am to meet so many caring people through this blog, and I am thankful for each and every one of you.
It’s going to be a slow year for Christmas decorating, but I will try to get some inspiration up on the blog before it gets too late in the season. As I’m sure you can understand it’s hard to bring myself to do any festive decorating right now. I appreciate your patience of this and not getting a whole lot posted on the blog over the past few weeks.
This Week’s Features:
Make a Rustic Pom Pom Christmas Wreath by The DIY Mommy
Christina created this gorgeous Pom Pom Christmas wreath and shares how she did it on her blog so you can make one for yourself!

I can never get enough of what Debra dubbed her “Holiday Cupboard” in her garden room! She has it ready for Thanksgiving with a variety of vintage turkey figurines and ironstone!
Repurposed Jewelry Box Red Christmas Door Ornament by The Interior Frugalista
This is so stinkin’ cute and clever! Marie repurposed a jewelry box door into a Christmas ornament.

Michelle, I want to urge you to take time and pamper yourself and your family now. If you don’t feel like doing something like decorating, then give yourself permission not to. It takes time to process a loss like this. Hugs.

My thoughts are with you this Thanksgiving, Michelle. It was hard having that empty chair at our Thanksgiving Table in October and will be equally hard this Christmas. Sending hugs your way from Canada. xo Thank you for featuring my DIY ornament this week!
