Holiday Gift Guide: The Crafter

I realize Christmas Eve is tomorrow, but I wanted to share one final gift guide with y'all!

I absolutely love to receive craft supplies as gifts -- that way Hubby can't complain that I'm spending more money on "crap" supplies, as he likes to call them.

Whether you've got a knitter, scrap-booker, jewelry designer, or painter on your gift list, I've picked out some cute gifts any craft enthusiast would love to receive!

For the Month of October

The time has finally come. Today I finished my last day at the catering company. I am now 30 weeks pregnant and could not imagine that time would have flown this fast. The final trimester is here and I am only 10(ish) weeks away from holding little baby Hailey in my arms :)


Here are some crafts/projects/chores I am working on for this month:

-de-cluttering our guest room/nursery
       
-Painting an old bookcase and dresser for her room (don't worry the hubby will actually be doing the painting)

-Setting up the furniture that we do have/get (we are waiting on a crib and glider)

-Lamaze classes and a tour of the hospital

-CPR classes




We will see how much I can get done this month. We already have so much planned, with youth group on Wednesdays, and figuring out Sunday school lessons, we are swamped it seems.

More to come about our Baby Moon Trip!

Where we will be staying!

Happy weekend, y'all! I'm so glad I get a few days to breathe! This week was super busy (I'm sensing a growing trend here). My weekend plans include hitting the trails for a walk/run, catching up on housework, and giving myself a much needed pedicure. 

Here are some fun and fabulous links I stumbled upon this week! Enjoy!

Remember last week when I said I couldn't get a song from Frozen out of my head? Well now I can't get this parody of a different song from Frozen out of my head! And yes, I do want to go to Starbucks! (You will too after watching this!)

Need a little glam in your life? Check out Vogue's Best Dressed List from the Met Gala. My favorite celebrity frock? Blake Lively for sure!

Believe it or not, not all words translate into English. Take a look at these charming illustrations of untranslatable words from other languages. 

Kate Spade's 21 days in Rio is giving me an extreme need to travel! I'm obsessed with this book clutch, this statement necklace, and this dress!

Looking for a cute craft project? Check out these DIY outdoor dominoes!

Any fun plans for the weekend? Do share!
