Five Things

December 10th, 2010

{The most flattering deep red nail polish.  Essie’s Fishnet Stockings.}

I have several holiday-related parties lined up this weekend, including Rachel‘s annual Gingerbread House party (see my previous houses here and here).   Much to my dismay, the temperature will be unseasonably warm both days, which makes feeling festive all the more challenging.   Also on tap: finishing up all of my holiday shopping, going out for sushi, throwing a dinner party and watching “Love Actually.”  In the meantime, here are five things currently making me happy.  Have a great weekend.

{Finished sugar cookies.  Tutorial coming next week!}

{After I spray painted this, I’ve been sprucing up other odds and ends}

{My new doorstop for my office.  I posted a similar one here}

{New shoes that outshine everything else in my closet}
