coffee filter Christmas wreath
Got a little DIY for you today! You may have seen these awesome wreaths on Pinterest. Well, this year we are on a very tight budget so I’m making everything I can which includes decorations and presents. This probably cost me $2-$3 to make. Can’t go wrong with that!
Most of the ones I seen are made using styrofoam but I think that styrofoam is a bit pricey. So I used a piece of foam core board. I usually would have opted to use white but I already had some left over black laying around. So I had to do a little extra filling in for more coverage.
First cut the board into a 16″ circle. Then cut out the middle, leaving about a 4″ edge leftover. (I didn’t worry about making the circle pretty since I’d be covering it up anyway.)
Pinch the coffee filter from the bottom center. (I didn’t make any specific folds.)
With the hot glue gun add a dime size glob of glue to the bottom of the filter where you pinched it. Place it close the edge, leaving 2″ of the filter hanging over.
Add more filters about 1″ apart all along the outer edge.
Add a second row inside of the first row.
Continue to fill in all the way around the middle.
I went as close as the middle edge as possible. Also, I looked for any gaps and added more filters where needed to fill them in.
For a more polished look trim the filters slightly where needed to make them even. I found that this is easiest using a large pair of very sharp scissors.
Add a delicious bow and hang it proud for all the world to see!

bloom 52 – week 49 – childhood memory
`
This week’s theme is childhood memory. I was sad because I really wanted to photograph my favorite stuffed animal but he’s living it up in the attic. So I picked a little doll bank that my dad got me. She’s all dirty and dusty but still in pretty good condition.

poplove
I am so excited for Christmas! Gives me a great excuse to make all the goodies I want. 
Today I had fun making some oreo pops for a family party this weekend. The first time I made any kind of cake pops they were mushy and misshapen and I thought that it would be my one and only time attempting them. Buuuuuut I kept having a major craving for them so I had to give it another shot. I guess that a little practice is all I needed. Now I actually have fun making them. Think I caught that cake pop fever that’s going around…I have this overwhelming desire to put a stick in everything and cover it in chocolate!

Tiny Prints
Have you ordered your Christmas cards yet? I’ve got my eye on some sweet ones from Tiny Prints. I really like this design:
But I’m thinking of getting this round design and making them into ornaments.
I look forward every year to picking out a new Christmas card design and sharing them with family doesn’t get to see the kids often. <3

Elf on the Shelf
I’ve been seeing so many fun pics of what people do with their Elf on a Shelf for the past few years. So, I finally gave in and got one. The boys are a little skeptical about his magic. But it’s still a good reminder that Santa is always watching.

Bloom 52 – week 47 – with thanks
So very thankful for my family and friends and a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Here are some pics from Thanksgiving that I captured with my phone. This was Alijah’s first Thanksgiving, the first time I made cheesecake from scratch, the first time we used our new popcorn machine (the kids were all totally amazed by it!) and the first time I made mojitos. It was also our first Thanksgiving since we lost our sister. And even though it was a hard day it was still a wonderful one, filled with a lot of good memories!
