We’re having a very tight Christmas this year and I was getting very down about it. This post seriously cheered me up! There may not be a lot under our Christmas tree this year, but it’s going to be cute! I saw kraft paper rolls at the dollar store the other day. I’m going to go back and pick up 2 rolls then stop at the home improvement store and pick up a few red and green paint swatches. I’m also going to totally make those awesome bows out of old magazines. There are so many awesome ideas there.
Gina, thank you for cheering me up and making me realize that it doesn’t have to cost a lot to look awesome!
