Hello sweet friends! How has your week been? I mailed out 85 Christmas cards and have almost finished wrapping our gifts. There is still baking to do and visits to be made. If you need a bit of inspiration Saturday Smiles That’s A Wrap is here to help!
If you have ever wondered about how Shiny Brites originally started this is a delightfully informative post.

It’s no secret that I love Downton Abbey. This gorgeous tour captures the spirit perfectly.

Companies all over the world spend major advertising dollars this time of year. But my favorite commercial this season is one created by a small family-run hardware store for just $130.
May your days be merry and bright!
