Holiday Joy

Can you tell I've been taking it easy this holiday season, now that shows are over? In January I plan to be back up and running with more regular blog posts. For now, I hope you enjoy the bits and pieces I've been putting out there!

Today I am busy finishing gift wrapping, taking a trip to the post office, and straightening up and decorating the the house. I thought I'd post a round-up of some of the wonderful freebies, projects, and recipes that I've been using or been inspired by. Some are from this year, some from years past. I hope you enjoy them all!

There are so many more wonderful freebies out there, I could spend all day on the topic. But I will wrap things up now and get back to my wrapping (bad pun, I know). Happy Holidays everyone!
