Garden :: Holiday Decorating Ideas
This year we are still decorating our front yard and came across some really fun ideas. I absolutely love the vintage TV idea that the blogger at 7th House on the Left came up with and adore this one right below because it is so colorful and easy to reproduce. Why not keep decorating with some fun ideas! We do have two more weeks!

DIY Christmas Craft & Decor Ideas
This year might be the first time in a long time we won’t be getting a Christmas tree. I just don’t think it would be a good idea since our 8 month old puppy is still chewing everything in sight and he will probably think the tree, ornaments and presents are just for him to eat and destroy. So I am planning on making some other holiday crafts that we can make to celebrate the season and put up and away from prying puppy eyes. Hope you enjoy these holiday ideas as well!

Bing Smart Search Helps Me Start a New Project!
Most moms are always on the lookout for ways to save time (and money). I am constantly checking out the Internet to get ideas for posts for my sites, new recipes (the family is sick of my ten recipes), and fashion tips. Sometimes, it will just take a picture or short post about something I find interesting that then triggers the creative juices! Recently, I discovered Bing Smart Search on Windows on our new laptop which came with the new 8.1 operating windows. As part of the Linquia community, I was asked to participate in this Bing campaign and see how well it works. So off I went in search…

Dwell :: Modern Holiday Decor & Crafts
We are preparing to host Thanksgiving this year and found some wonderful recipes to try out as well as décor ideas. Make sure to check out these posts to get some new ideas as well! Friends, Christmas will be here before you know it and I find it less stressful if I take care of my shopping way ahead of time so I can actually sit back and enjoy the season with family and friends. I don’t know how people can go shopping the day or so before Christmas at the malls – how stressful! So here’s to planning a bit ahead (we have a little over 6 weeks left) and enjoy trying out a few of these…
