Hello sweet friends, it has been such a busy week! I am hoping things will start to slow down a bit. This afternoon it will be quiet at Storybook Cottage and I’m looking forward to Sunday Smiles Home Alone. I will probably begin the large task of addressing my holiday cards.
Sunday Smiles Home Alone
Hey ya filthy animals, the iconic house from the 1990 film Home Alone will be available to rent on Airbnb for one night only this holiday season. Up to four lucky mischief makers will be able to stay in the McCallister family’s house on the night of Dec. 12 for just $25. Requests to book open on December 7th. If I was anywhere near Chicago I would do this!
Golden Pheasants
Some of the most breathtakingly beautiful images of animals can be found HERE.
A Sweet Snowman
This snowman ornament looks like the perfect craft for kids to make.
Calico and Twine

Oh Christmas Tree
I want to make an entire forest of these darling tissue paper trees!
Color Me Happy
I love seeing all the holiday home tours. I’m not much for boring beige catalog looks, I adore color and personality! Madcap Cottage has it in spades.
A Jane Austen Holiday
This morning at 10:30 CST I am doing an Instagram Live on my friend Tiffany’s Stitchin’ Addiction stories. We will be discussing holiday celebrations in the Regency era including decor, recipes and more!
I’ll be joining my friend Miss Marty for her home tours on Tuesday. But they start tomorrow!
See you then

Those animal photos are so stunning. I just got Christmas cards mostly done yesterday.
