It's beginning to look a little like Christmas.
One of the joys of pulling the Christmas things out of storage, reacquainting yourself with past projects. A white button wreath put together last year, happily sporting a red polka dotted bow. Thinking back to how much fun I had making it...
With Rosie sick, I'm a little behind in my usual holiday prep. Things aren't happening the way they usually do, and that's ok. At least, that's what I keep reminding myself. I'm concentrating on simplifying and focusing on what's really important this year. How about you?

I LOVE your wreath... It looks as though you spent a lot of time on it... Well worth it I am sure as it is Adorable... I also like your little blue birds on your window seal.... I have Red ones like that....Sorry to hear Rosie is still filling under the weather.
I see you like Leo Ward Blue Birds of happiness too. Those are made right up the road from me and I love seeing them in blogs all around the world! If you'd like to see where they are made, here's a blog post I wrote: http://www.monkeyboxblog.com/2011/09/happiness-bluebirds-and-otherwise.html

That wreath is adorable! I'm behind in my decorating too...oh well...today's a brand new day!
beautiful wreath- and beautiful memories- we are all about making those....x
focusing on what's really important is the way to go at Christmas...some times the creating of those perfect Christmas moments seems more important than just letting oneself be *in* that moment....
yes it is so ok that things don't happen the way they are supposed to happen...we're flying home Dec 20- Christmas is going to be a bit of a balance- but we'll all be together and that's what I'm focusing on...

I hold your little one in my heart and prayers. Nothing more difficult than a child who is not feeling well. Praying God blesses her with renewed health and your heart with peace . XXX
It's lovely!
I just adore the pictures on your blog...keep warm..tis bitter out!x
Pure prettiness!!!
I too am behind, but with you not stressing about it.
Have a wonderful day!!!
Hope Rosie continues to improve. No matter what you get done or don't get done as long as you are all together makes the holiday special.
Your wreath is charming!
The wreath is soo cute! What a good idea! Thanks for sharing it with us. Do pray that your little Rosie is improving quickly. That would be a great blessing for the holidays. God bless.
Simple...Sweet and perfect for slowing down and remembering the season. Best to Rosie...Smiles...Renee
What a cute wreath, and I love your little glass bluebirds.
I love the wreath. I am s-l-o-w-l-y getting the house decorated. I just started a full time job and I just don't have the time I used to when I was a stay at home mom. I have today off and plan on adding a little here and there, but it's really all about spending time with family and friends and worship. Decorating has to take a back seat:>)
I love your wreath and your blue birds.......everything!
Hello Molly..Your wreath is so pretty...I love the pretty polka dots and buttons...I hope little Rosie is feeling better so that she can enjoy the build up to Christmas....I am going to avoid stress at all costs Molly and have a lovely family time...keeping it simple...

Incredibly cute button wreath!
Hi bb,
I have been peeking at your blog for awhile, now. I love my visits!
So sorry to hear about your little one. She was an cutie of a strawberry on Halloween.
The button wreath is quite lovely. You just don't know how badly I would love to stay at home and craft, instead of being a teacher! I think that as time goes on my burnout level increases.
If you have a moment, I would love for you to visit my blog. Hope your little strawberry is doing much better this week.
Thanks for sharing all your lovely ideas and things!
Cindy
PS--I still have the exact angel figurine (from my godmother when I turned one) that you have featured on your heading.
