Holiday Glow

December 11th, 2009

When my apartment is all done up in holiday decorations, I sometimes consider leaving them up for the entire year.   The glittering lights and spicy scents are so welcoming, but I suppose it wouldn’t feel quite as appropriate in June.  I can’t wait for the rainy weekend  and as a special treat, I have a give-away scheduled for this Sunday, so please stop by.

Also, check out my go-to hairstyle for parties here for my last post on Lucky!

    Love your hair how-to. Once my hair grows out just a bit more I am going to try it! And you Christmas pictures are so festive. They make me glad to be bundled up inside today and excited that the holidays are so so close!
