SPARKLE

There's been a lot of chatter lately about how early everyone is decorating for Christmas.  Truth be told, I just took down my Halloween decorations this past weekend.  At the same time, Mike was outside stringing up white lights (everywhere).   If we get the fresh cut Christmas tree this weekend, there is a good chance it won't make it until the big day.  That sentiment has been echoed as well.  If the tree doesn't make it, we are not buying another one.  That would be classic.

This year I'm staying with a sparkly, vintage look.  I just paged thru the Better Homes and Gardens magazine and found some simple inspiration to get me started.  Multiple jars filled with holiday candy.  A nice touch to add some color. I bumped into the perfect candy jars at my local grocery store.  Mental note to buy them tomorrow.  And I think I am taking my boxwood wreaths and wrapping them with festive ribbon.

Let the decorating begin!
