First off… I apologize. I had double the selections chosen for today’s party features, however the post got too long. It’s just getting so hard to know where to stop!
So just know… you are inspiring the Santa boots offa me, and I’m so grateful you come over religiously to share your latest and greatest!
This past week my son and I picked up our tree HERE… from the tree farm! Yes, we decided to go real after already half decorating the faux one… and it is so quirky perfect!
In other news, I even worked on my kitchen! Sorda…

Back to you, these selections from last week’s party are SOOOO festive…

Those ruler ornaments are the cutest!
Thank you Donna for including my large ‘tag’ in your features this week. You kitchen eat at counter – a 30 minute update – changed your entire kitchen to country (well, along with all your other great signs, trays and Christmas – you make – additions).
Thank you too for your 456th DIY Salvaged Junk Projects. Happy December !
Joy
I’m so glad you liked my yardstick Christmas trees, Donna 🙂 Thanks for the lovely party!
Hi Donna, thank you for featuring my vintage spool ornaments. I had fun making hem. Hope youR Christmas preparations are going well..
Such gorgeous projects! I love all things upcycled. The ruler ornaments are so absolutely adorable! Thanks so much for hosting!
Adore every one of your features this week and so nice to see they are all made by blogging friends! Wishing you and your son a very Merry Christmas, Donna!
Now you’re working on house projects, too! What is it that gets us doing big projects this time of the year (when I should be baking cookies or shopping for gifts;)? Love the white chippiness on the island; totally brightens everything up! Thanks for featuring my sleds and my flower frog trees this week; how fun! The creative juices have been a little in overdrive lately! Thanks for hosting, Donna! Love coming to your party!
I know… crazy timing. However I’m in this big purge and make it all white zone, and I’m really struggling to be patient and allow all the Christmas things to take centre stage for now. I put it up, am happy but then I want to take it down right away. I think I need to watch a Christmas movie already… haha
Thank you so much for hosting another great party Donna!!
Donna,
Another great week and party. Love what you did with the shutters on your counter/bar.
i think Lora B and i were getting the same signal from the junk universe 😉 i came to share my stacked copper kitchen mold & tool trees and when i saw her stacked flower frog tree i gasped – that is SO GORGEOUS! who knew just piling everyday things on top of one another could result in some fun decor?!
with allllll this fabulous junk, should we all be saying ‘Happy HAULidays’ instead??
HAHAHA! I resemble the Hauliday remark a little too closely I’m afraid! And I agree, the simplicity of the stacking is just perfection for the collector type.
I know you get it Deb!
EeeeeeeeK, look at all this inspiration and time is running out before Christmas comes around. THanks so much for the party Donna and for making my Monday morning with the feature 😀
