Just Cookies!

I am so obsessed these days with baking cookies that I have created a Pinterest Board just for cookies!

Here are a few examples of what I have pinned so far!

Christmas Cards

~ Christmas Cards~

I haven't found time to make my own cards this year so I have cheated!

I took a card with Christmas Stockings and cut the stockings out.

Then I punched two holes in a pre-printed store bought Christmas Card. 

One in the left and right top corner.

Then I simply added some gold coloured gift wrapping cord to create a wash-line effect.

 

 I then attached the stockings with miniature clothes-pins.

It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

 So we our back home. Had a nice time visiting my brother and his family. Excited that they will be visiting us soon!
Before we left it was starting to look like Christmas there. We went to Christmas Town at Busch Gardens, the radio was playing only Christmas songs & my brother and his wife were already busy decorating. Our first day home I got out the tree & ornaments. Not yet finished (never am) but it is really starting to look and smell like Christmas. Tonight I made some floral arrangements with my neighbour. Some greens with roses. I am going to try and do a DIY project every night until Christmas! As for Vintage Rose Brocante at tumblr I will start posting this week! I am active on Pinterest again and hope to be blogging more now that I am back home.

Happy Holidays!

Colonial Williamsburg

Colonial Williamsburg

Virginia

I am visiting my brother and his wife in Hampton, Virginia. we will be spending Thanksgiving wih them and their children. My lovely niece & nephew!

We arrived on Thursday evening. On Saturday evening one of my other brothers & my father arrived and surprise we were there! We didn't tell them we were coming so the looks on their faces were priceless. From confusing to tears.

Before they arrived we went Friday for a drive. It is by the way the first visit to the East Coast and my boyfriends first visit to the United States. Our drive took us from Hampton to Surry and with the ferry over to Jamestown with us driving further along William & Mary where my neice studied. We stopped and walked through historical Williamsburg. We will be going back to spend some more time in the town but our first impressions have been photographed.

Here they are!
