Christmas is…

one of my favorite seasons to be inspired & can be found everywhere.

around the house:

our Christmas tree this year. rainbow. of course ;)

most of the ornaments on our tree were made from simple things like styrofoam balls covered in feathers & glitter and little birds & butterflies that i got from michael’s arts & crafts store.

i made the tree skirt from vintage ties that i got at the thrift store! it was so easy to make: you just sew up the sides of the ties together & they naturally fan out into a circular shape ;)

So, we adopted the idea of both for Christmas. In the meanwhile, everyone is happy!!!!

    Have a blessed Christmas, Angie Smith

    I loved all the items in the giveaway, but can I have the tree as weel? It’s just amazing!
    Weel, about the food… I don’t think I have a favorite. I’m just one of those people that eat according to what is on the table… LOL. But I love chocolate, it doesn’t matter how. There is a sweet here in Brazil called “brigadeiro” and I simply love it! (it’s made by putting in a pan: condensed milk, 1 table spoon of chocolate (powder), and 1 spoon of margerine. Then on stove, mix it until it gets thick and you can see the bottom of the pan. Let it cool and it’s ready! You can eat the way it is or, after it’s cool enough to work with it, you make small balls.)
    It’s really good!

  112. Liz Schaffner Says:

    WOW, what a prize!!!!
    Now that is what I call a Christmas present ! :-)
    My favorite food…ohhh, there are soooo many over the holidays but I would have to say “goose” since the whole family gets together to start of the holidays and pull names ( we do a secret Santa) and we share a feast of a goose dinner…it is super yummy and it is nice all of us being together without the stress of the holiday.
    Just a nice festive family meal.
    Crossing my fingers I win….Liz Schaffner

    Hard to chose just one favorite ;) so would have to say love all of the desserts, especially pie. I figure it is the one time in the year, besides one’s birthday, where one can eat and enjoy the food without any guilt!

    Thanks for the giveaway.

    My name is Caitlin McMahon and my favorite holiday food is pizalle(sp?) cookies, simple cookie but it reminds me of when my mom used to bring them home from a cookie swap. But really I like it all. So glad I found out about your kits thru Ali’s blog. Thanks for the opportunity!

    My favorite holiday food is a carrot-crouton casserole that my dear grandmother always made. It is now the dish I am asked to bring to all our family gatherings. Such a good, filling, comfort food.
    WOW, what an awesome, generous giveaway! :)

    Let’s see my favorite holiday food. Wow, that sparked a memory. It’s fondue! My mom used to set up fondue on a card table in front of the fireplace during the holidays. We’d turn off the lights and have cheese fondue and this great hot oil that you cooked the steak bites and shrimp in. She made like 6 different sauces and my favorite of those was this thick curry dipping sauce for the steak. Haven’t had it in forever.

    That is so what I am giving the kids for dinner tonight. Thank you sooo much for the memory. Happy holidays!

  136. Laura Ziegler Says:

    Favorite holiday food…it is a classic of my grandma’s. She used to live with two nun’s and cook for them to pay for her room and board while she earned her teaching degree. She always cooked with real butter..and I love her for that. Her treat was TeaTime Tassies. They are little pecan pies. Her crusts were the flakiest and best I’ve EVER had hands down. I could eat those babies by the handful guiltfree.

    P.S. LOOOOOOOOVE the Christmas wire tree. So fabulous! Vintage gorgeous.

  153. Julia Carter Says:

    My favorite Christmas food is decorated sugar cookies, I know I can have them any time, but them seem more special when they are cut in Christmas shapes and sprinkled with red and green sugar, I love ‘em!!

  154. Shay Says:

    My name is Shay which is my last name, but what I mostly go by so some people refer to me as Shay Shay or Shay squared. I love all sorts of holiday foods/drinks including Christmas cookies, latkes, hot spiced cider, eggnog, wassail, our spicy fruit salad (has a sweet lime dressing infused with jalapeno)we have for Christmas brunch and all the appetizers we make for our holiday party (new and different each year). I love food (eating food, reading about food and also cooking and baking) so this is a fun and great question. Thanks for the chance to win this sensational prize.
