So Happy It Arrived...

Hi Everyone!  What can I say.  I have been away for a bit now due
to life's craziness.  So much going on, so much to do, and I 
cannot juggle lots of stuff!  So blogging has suffered.  But I wanted to
catch up with all of you tonight and show you something that arrived
in the mail over the weekend.  A few weeks ago I won a giveaway from
a wonderful blogger with a beautiful blog.  
She is Aina at Modern Country.
Her giveaway was the most amazing smelling sachet from 
Mi~Septembre of Paris.







Aina included a little packet that she put together and a personal note
on her adorable snow flake stamped tag.




This is what she included:  two darling metal heart tags, some of her
fabric stitched labels and her card.  These will have a special place on my 
inspiration board.




Thank you Aina!  And please go and check out her beautiful blog

Thanks everyone.
Have a happy week!!

An Easy Holiday DIY Project With Lots of Sparkle...

Happy Tuesday Everyone!  I hope you're having a great week so far
and that you're enjoying your holiday shopping and decorating.  I 
finished with all my decorating this past weekend, including the tree.
I wanted to share with you an easy DIY project I came up with that I 
am crazy about.  It all started when I saw this strand of faux pearls strung
on wire and I wanted to put them to use in a project.  So I decided to 
wrap them around some two foot garden topiary frames that I had.



To add lots of sparkle and bling I hung vintage chandelier crystals
that I have had kicking around for awhile onto the wire.
I LOVE the way they turned out!









This was just so easy once you have all the materials.
Hope you enjoyed it.  If you have any new Christmas decor projects you 
did this year I would love to see them.  Leave me a comment and will
stop by to check them out!

Enjoy your week!
