Well, knowing me as you do teehee, you'll have figured out that I'm running behind on my holiday decorating over here. I just received the best, most delightful and inspiring kick start to the holidays though!
Twyla and Lindsey, the crafty mother daughter duo of Two Crazy Crafters, are the absolute sweetest and bestest of pairs. During their Sugar Kissed Christmas celebration they are counting down to Christmas and sharing the sweetest of holiday decor and tutorials with us.
And guess what?! Drum roll ... I won the Two Crazy Crafters A Sugar Kissed Christmas Giveaway. ME! I'm tickled (holiday) pink over here and jumping up and down with glee.
On Saturday, we went shopping for our Christmas cards and when we came home, there was a big box on the porch for me. OHHH!!! So exciting.
I received the most charming of holiday afghans, handmade by Twyla, which you can see pictured above. Now I'm all ready to cozy up with it and a cup of peppermint cocoa and make my holiday plans.
Thank you thank you thank you Twyla and Lindsey!

ReplyDeleteI see your photo with you? reading The Lovely Bones. Have I asked you about this book? Is it super sad? I have put off reading it because 1.) I have a daughter and 2.) I can't stand thinking about that fate befalling anyone.
