Christmas Inspiration, or, Too Many Ideas Swirrling Around My Head

Halloween is barely over, but I've been thinking about my Christmas inspiration for a few weeks. ( I realize that some people do this all year long, but I'm not one of those people).  I've decided that I don't want to buy any new decor this year, rather I would like to make some. I also plan to make most of my gifts for friends and Cooper's teachers. I've been scouring the internet, trying to get some ideas of some projects I'd like to complete, and I thought I'd share a few with you...

Be watching in the coming weeks to see my take on all of these projects. Hopefully my oven will be fixed soon, because I have an amazing Cinnamon Chocolate Christmas cookie to share with you as well!

Where do you get your inspiration for the holidays?

Did you know that November is National Adoption month? I'll be revisiting some of my old posts, and I have a few new ones in the works, so stay tuned!

    Great choices, Kristin! Can't wait to see what you come up with. And I hope your oven is fixed soon, too, cause those cookies sound delicious!
