I’m Having a Party!!!

by

That’s right! A full on celebration!! If I had any idea how to work a computer, I would have made some really cute holiday tag to put on here that says the name of my party, but I don’t, so I didn’t.

Alert! Alert! I know people who are smarter and sweeter than I’ll EVER be, and they made me some party buttons. Look at what Natalie made me! I seriously would have done it the same way–if I knew how! I love it. Isn’t she talented?

And Kendra is so talented and wonderful and brilliant! She included the date of the party and everything! How did she even DO this? She told me some way to have you link to it, but that’s gonna take an hour or so for me to figure out. Until then, just look at its prettiness and enjoy!


All in favor of saving money this Christmas say, “I”. All in favor of exchanging some gifts that have heart or meaning behind them say, “I”. All in favor of coming here next week to share your ideas and then steal from others say, “Chris is a genius!” Well, maybe not that last part.
 I scavenged (I don’t care if that’s not a word) the internet for some goodies that look like “I can make that”, and I know you ladies are looking for some inspiration this year.
In order to spare our pocket books, I would like to invite you to join me

Monday, November 10th

That gives you the rest of this week AND the weekend to either make something that you can teach us how to do, or even just scour the internet and find some projects with tutorials that you know us poor people would love to make for our loved ones this Christmas.

Think of all those teacher’s gifts, the mailman, the neighbors, etc. that you just don’t have the money to include on your list this year. Wouldn’t some nifty ideas like these be perfect? Don’t stop there, folks! Maybe you’re looking for a decorative way to wrap your presents, or you just need some pizazz in your presentation…this will be the place to come!

You heard it hear first! Join me and the three other people that will link up here on Monday to pass on some inspiration to all your blog friends. I hope you decide to join us! Tell your friends, ’cause that way it won’t be so weird when only two people show. 🙂

Well, hello. Ahem. Allow myself to introduce..my..self. My name is Chris! And I’m a blogger! I got into blogging after spending months reading all the inspiration that is found in blogland. I thought to myself, “Self, I can do this. I might have something to offer too!” And so it began...
