Seven on Saturday 12/7/24

Whew! One week of December has flown by! Only 2 more weeks until all the family festivities begin around here, and I’m so excited for everyone to be home!

I finished our porch decor this week, and added a few extra Christmassy touches around the house here and there. Almost all the gifts are purchased, and I’ve begun the wrapping process. My goal is to be finished with shopping and wrapping this weekend — fingers crossed!

I love wrapping Christmas presents, do you?

This week on the blog, it’s been all about DIY Christmas ornaments!!

Close-up of a decorated Christmas tree with a variety of ornaments, including a painted round ornament with blue patterns and colorful baubles. The tree, showcasing holiday craft elements like DIY decoupage pieces, is dusted with artificial snow and softly lit, creating a festive atmosphere.

I love paper napkin decoupage, and these decoupage seashell ornaments turned out so beautifully!

You can see the step-by-step instructions here!
