Antler Candle Holders
Last week I showed you my attempt to embellish a deer antler mount for a Christmas ornament on the wall. So continuing on with that antler idea, I made these antler candle holders and learned a few more things along the way…
Deer Antlers for Christmas
I’ve been loving decorating with deer themed things this Christmas, so I thought how perfect to actually use real deer antlers for a Christmas decoration too! Nope, hunters we are not, so we didn’t come by these antlers that way… But they are real, and here’s how I did get them and what I did to embellish them…
Christmas Nativity Collection
Displaying a collection can be a little tricky… sometimes whatever the collection subject matter is, it can look a bit busy, losing all the original visual interest of the items… Here are some ways I’ve displayed our Christmas nativity collection this year to try to avoid that.
Rustic Deer Themed Christmas Tree for Front Porch
This is part 2 of 3 creating a Merry Christmas welcome on the front porch… Once the summer wicker furniture was moved off the porch to protect it from the winter snow, I decided to add this Christmas tree, albeit not your traditionally decorated Christmas tree, to the front porch. I opted for a rustic deer themed Christmas tree! Fun, right?! Here are a few tips and an unconventional Christmas tree stand.
Kitschy or Sweet? 65 year old Ceramic Nativity
Merry Christmas greetings!
What a perfect time of the year for me to start a little blogging again, so many pretty and inspiring things during the Christmas season to write and take pictures of.
Last fall, (2013) I wrote what I thought was going to be my last post, because at the time I was very overwhelmed with life’s projects… (we sold ‘Our House’!! and refurbished an old house and are absolutely LOVING it!) but now that I’m over that crazy, busy, I’m not in my 30’s anymore and don’t have the energy I used to, I hope to actually be able to start blogging a little bit again. I’ll share more about our new place
Feedback Needed
Dec 26
Posted by LIz
We started this blog just about a month ago and I would love to get some direct feedback.
I’m excited about a new project I’ll be starting in January, if all goes as planned. So there will optimistically be a lot of blogging about the progress with that. (I hope to reveal the exciting project in a couple of days.)
I have a lot to share with you in the categories ‘Our House’, ‘Crafts’, and ‘DIY’, along with ‘Someone Else’s House’, which will actually be several different people’s houses that are either my friends, family or houses I’ve decorated.
Here is one of my big questions:
Do you prefer if I post continually about 1 project until it’s completed? (basically how I did the posts for The West Bedroom)
Or do you prefer for me to skip around, to keep it fresh? (Jumping from one project to another)
Check out my posts from the past 4 weeks and please give me any tips on my writing style, posts, or subjects you would love to hear about. Let me know what you liked, what you didn’t like and what you would like to see different. This is a really exciting adventure for me and I want it to be both fabulously entertaining and informative for you.
I think anyone, even if you don’t have a WordPress account can comment, but if you run into trouble, please email me directly at: [email protected]
One thing I know I have to work on is taking better pictures. It’s definitely a work in progress. Unfortunately, I can’t blame the camera, it’s a nice one. It’s for sure me needing to learn more.
The only way I’m going to know what you want is if you tell me, so let’s hear it! Thank you!
We’re looking forward to the new year and all the possibilities that come with it,
Little Bit
