Holiday Cuteness!

Oh, Monday. Monday.

I heard somewhere that today was supposed to be the most depressing day of the new year, not the 1st or 2nd. First real Monday back and all I suppose? Doesn't matter to me, I've been freezing for weeks now; my seasonal misery just blurs together during this time of year. I need sunshine and 50 degrees. I'm just glad the snow has melted here, I cannot deal when it gets all dirty and brown and gross. Good riddance.

DIY Ruffle Tree Skirt & Christmas Decor

This Christmas, we (really, I) decided to go with a rustic gold & beige themed tree and decor, and of course make mostly everything. I used Pinterest, which I'm currently obsessed with, to log all my idears on my Holiday Decor board. I had made a tree skirt & matching stockings last year, and of course I didn't like them again this year. Nor did I want to use my glitter disco ornaments from Target again, so I started pinning things that I liked, and figured I'd make new stuff!

This No Sew Ruffle Tree Skirt tutorial came courtesy of HGTV & it turned out SO cute. I didn't make mine as large because our tree is one of those tall skinny ones, but it looks adorable, and it was incredibly easy, just a little time consuming. Here's the finished product!
