Outside The {Gingerbread} Box...

I'm bypassing the holiday hoop-lah this weekend... holing up at home... getting cozy with the kids {sweats are mandatory!} and pausing to celebrate a few simple joys of the season... Family.  Baking.  Cookie decorating.  Gingerbread houses are definitely on the agenda and I'm thinking of going mid-century modern with mine this year...

More family fun to be had...

Plan a caroling party with treats for your neighbors...

Download retro holiday fonts for "make your own" gift tags...

Or... download free holiday gift tags or treat bags

Super cute DIY snow globes & a TON of other ideas from Martha 


Happy {holed up & cozy} Weekend!

Gift CRUSH Of The Season {The ELF}...

This is THE perfect gift for families with young children.  



I can't tell you how much mileage I get out of our little guy... too bad he only "flies" in for the month of December.  The only tricky part for me is remembering to "magically" make our Elf move around the house each night.  My dear friend Amy has been sending me photos of her Elf and how he rolls... so darn funny... so creative... I had to share...

{Bubble Bath w/Friends}

{Spin Cycle!}

{Bunnnngeeee!}

{Movie Night}

Too cute, right?  Don't have one?  Get one!  It's good, clean, holiday fun!

Happy Elf-ing!

Black Can Be Neutral...

I have had many a conversation with people who say, "Oh, I would never have the guts to paint my walls, my windows or my floors black"... well, for all you nervous nellies out there... here is a fantastic example of how it can be done beautifully... not trendy... no heavy drama.  Here, Mr. Black serves to ground rooms... provide framework for lighter colors/objects and bring a space inward... dare I say even cozy...
