The Scoop

More exposure + less time = win win!

I sure hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving!! I know ours was wonderful and I completely unplugged at the farm. We saw lots of deer and the bluebirds have found the nesting boxes we set up for them. But with all of that rest, I found myself woefully behind this morning, bills to pay, my Weds Christmas home tour to write, and a magazine article due in a few days that I haven’t even started.  (Shhhh… don’t tell anyone.)   Then I had a sick kiddo to pick up before a 10 am phone appointment.   Ah yes, I have a glamorous life, wink, wink.  I really do have some super fun things brewing that I am pretty excited to share with you, and I will, when I can.  🙂
Just in case you missed it, I just started a photo Friday series.  Here I’m giving away my photography secrets.  You can see the first one here.
And did you get your free copy of my ebook?  You can get it by signing up for my equally free and amazingly incredible, fabulous, never-before-seen, one-of-a-kind, must-have (did I mention free?) newsletter below.  (Okay technically I haven’t sent out my first one, but when I do… I’m sure it will be everything you dreamed it would be.)  Can I stop yet? Did I convince you?

I am super excited to have Doreen from Hymns and Verses join us as our special guest this week!
Hi, I’m Doreen and I blog at Hymns and Verses!

I can’t tell you how excited I am to be here today as a guest host! I’ve been partying on Mondays with this group for a little over a year – and now, I’m a guest host! As I type this, I’m covered in glitter! I’ve been busy “Decking the Halls” and of course, getting ready for The Scoop’s Handmade Christmas Tour! To get you inspired for the tour, I thought I would share some of the DIY Christmas projects that caught my eye from last week’s party!
Take a look at these amazing napkin rings made from twigs, twine, and pearls by Anna at Tarnished Royalty! I love the combination of the rustic twigs and jute with the always elegant, creamy pearls!
My next pick is from Barbara at 21 Rosemary Lane. After a recent visit to Colonial Williamsburg, she came home and made this beautiful colonial style wreath for her front door!
Next up, are these French script feathers by Judith at Botanic Bleu. They are just lovely and I think they would add an elegant touch to your Christmas packages!
If rustic is more your style, then you are gonna love these frosty twig ornaments by Katie at Upcycled Treasures. They are adorable and look fairly easy to make!
Originally I wasn’t going to pick a recipe link, but when I saw this one, well – I changed my mind! Katherine of Katherine’s Corner shared these Raspberry Pie Fries! I love her presentation and can’t wait to try these!
