Christmas happenings

It's starting to really feel like Christmas around here :)
 It just started snowing (YAY!) I hope it continues all day!
Yesterday hubby and  I got a lot of Christmas shopping done, so today I'm excited to get wrapping them!
I have some "pretty" gift wrapping ideas for some of them! My mom and dads' birthdays are both Wednesday, I just finished wrapping those gifts and now onto Christmas! ~Of course I think i'm going to need another warm cup of coffee! Sounds good to me, and enjoying the smells of Christmas around the house, Christmas light are all on, and Christmas music :) {Smiles}



I think I may use a couple brooches in my wrappings 


 Made another batch of candles these are scented "Mistletoe" & "Amaretto Nog"


 AND a sneak peak of a new creation!
 I love how this turned out!! I'm going to be making a few more
of these along with a few more pictures for you :)

Hope you have a great creative day!

    I can't believe that you've been hand-making those candles! They must smell great!

    Hey Holly,

    Hows it goin? I need a link to your Etsy shop, as you don't have one on your sidebar. I wish I could smell your candles before I order one, but I wanna' check and see if you have any balsam fir, pine, cedar or other "tree" scents.

    Hugs,
    Meri

    You are really catching on to this vintage stuff! You are so young to be appreciative of the era that so many other bloggers grew up in! The snowed ornaments are really sweet!

      LOL! I bet your presents all look so pretty though!! I like wrapping the square boxes best, they are always the easiest and turn out the best verses those crazy shaped ones :)
      Hugs, Holly
