DIY Holiday Highlights #7

How was your Christmas? Are you glad it’s over? Does it stretch out with more celebrations and get-togethers this weekend? We’re hosting a small party on Friday and then the weekend plans include packing up holiday decorations. I don’t know about you but I love putting it all away just as much as decorating it all up. It feels so de-cluttered and clean, doesn’t it?

Just a quick post today…I wanted to open the DIY Holiday Highlights party for this week, for those who have some holiday related posts to share because the days after Christmas will be quiet in the DIY Show Off house {Mr. DIY is back to work, girls are gone and I’m snowed in} and I’d love to see the holiday posts you’ve been sharing on your blog.

Yesterday, I posted our Christmas home tour. You’re invited to stop by. I’d love your company. 🙂

There’s always time for a last minute craft project, right? I’m loving this cotton ball and jingle bell wreath from Brightly Inspired…easy and pretty!

I love the elegance of the DIY wintery pearl wreath at Classy Clutter.

All of those wreaths! One for every door – interior, exterior, cabinet doors, wall decor, mantel centerpiece…inspires a collection, doesn’t it?

Don’t forget! There’s a Christmas tree party & contest going on right now! Link up here, there and everywhere. Christmas tree with the most “likes” wins!

DIY Holiday Highlights Party #4

Welcome back to the {3rd annual} weekly DIY holiday linky party! This week the countdown to Christmas begins! How is it December already?

 

My holiday posts this past week include:

No Sew Ruffled Ombre Tree Skirt Tutorial

and I guess that’s all. lol But, seriously – I have more holiday projects to share but pictures are awaiting editing and blog posts are pending. Oops. Sometimes it’s hard to find a balance between working on projects and decorating and working on editing photos and blogging. More to come this week!

I haven’t shared this yet, but planning a Christmas tree party starting next week! Here’s a look at the family room all fun and festive…

Christmas Tree Party

Last week’s Holiday Highlights party was filled with so much beautiful inspiration! Very.Pineresting. Crazy talented Christmas spirit! Love it! I especially loved numbers 4, 5, 10, 15, 41, okay, all of them really. You’ll have to pop over and take a look at the thumbnails to see! Or follow my Christmas Pinboards.

Do have some holiday posts to share? You’re invited to link up! I can’t wait to browse through the links, listen to some Christmas music, warm up some cocoa and visit.  Nothing to share? Join me by taking a look at the links for some inspiration! What do you love?
