What could be more fun?

Blogs are just the MOST FUN during the holidays!

I have a whole list of blogs that I visit often to see what’s new so I’m going to try to list a few that I think you will enjoy. As I post in the next few days, I’ll share others that I discover. And if you know of one that I need to visit, please leave it in your comment and I’ll add it to a new post soon.

I love decorating and crafting at this time of year and these blogs inspire me!

‘We Love to Illustrate’ HERE has gingerbread houses to download and make!

‘A Scrapbook of Inspiration’ HERE is giving away something new every day!

‘Granny Trace’ HERE is asking a Christmas question every day and sharing memories!

‘The Graphics Fairy’ HERE shares amazing graphics.

‘ImagiMeri’s Creations’ HERE is sharing beautiful Christmas graphics AND having a giveaway!

‘Susan Branch’ HERE has the most beautiful blog at every time of year, but especially at Christmas!

‘Allsorts’ HERE has some fun Christmas projects and FREEBIES, too!

And don’t forget my giveaway HERE!

Do you think I have enough self confidence? I MUST! I still can’t believe I posted my Profile Pic in PJs….no make up and flat hair! But when my hubby took it….I smiled and felt all happy inside and it shows.

Hi Miss Lavender Dreams, here is a blog that I know you will love, it's all about Christmas.

You look so cute in your jammies. Sometimes my mohair gets a little flat too, I just turn my head upside down and give a toss - you know, like the models do? Giggle.

Heaps of Hugs
Prudence ♥

I love this time of year around the holidays and enjoy doing my Christmas decorating, and also seeing others too. I'm almost finished with mine and I look forward to sharing more photos soon. Your new holiday page header is adorable, it would make a sweet Christmas card too! You look very pretty in those red pj's and they make you look all snug and cozy like a big warm hug! The ladders in the background with the Santas climbing them are so cute!
Thanks for sharing!
Happy Holidays to you also Diane!
