It's been a choc-a-bloc year with many memorable and fun moments, some of which I have shared in this very blog with you guys, so thank you for stopping by and for taking the time to "listen"! :) And as the song goes..
We Wish You a Merry Christmas!
Only 3 sleeps to go, so just wanted to wish you and yours a fabulous Christmas full of sweetness and fun! May Santa bring you all that you wish for! :)
DIY Edible Hot Cocoa Mug Mini-Desserts
These adorable little mugs of hot cocoa are super easy to make! This one was actually my (Crissy here) daughter's idea! She spotted this idea in her American Girl Magazine! We did a twist and dipped the whole marshmallow into chocolate! YUM!!
Super Easy British (Sweet) Mince Pies Recipe
Mince pies are a British Christmas classic, and a real tradition in our home every year. I've also been known to make some extras to give away for family and friends as Christmas Gifts! My little cheat here is to use ready-rolled, shop-bought puff pastry - Saves a heap of time and tastes just as great!! ;)
Today's tutorial is courtesy of one of our newest blog contributors , Cris from Crissy's Crafts! I "met" Cris recently when she submitted her Halloween Party for a blog feature, and I just fell in love with her and her work! I mean, this lady is one creative momma as you'll see from today's tutorial; and her beautiful parties and clever craft ideas will be a fabulous addition to our little nook! Hope you leave Cris some love in the comments to make her feel real welcome! ;)
For those who missed our tutorial on Celebrations at Home last week, here's another chance for you to see it....In fact, it's soooo easy, that's quite cheeky to call it a tutorial ! ;) It's a great craft to sue up left over ribbon scraps and you can change the colors to suit your party, table or home decor!
So that's it folks, the shop is now closed and my automated "out of office" reply is up. Just wanted to say "farewell" properly though, and let you lovely people know that I'll be away until January, apart from a couple of few scheduled posts that will surface now and then to keep you coming back! ;)
