gift giving.

I decided to have a little wrapping fun this year with the gifts. I hand-stamped a bunch of kraft paper and used big vinyl lettering in lieu of gift tags. 

{yes. I'm aware of the disproportion of the stamp pad to stamp. shame.} 

{graphic and girly!} 

{please deliver this package to "D"}

I'll be honest, I don't like the actual wrapping part, but I do like adding the accoutrements to make it pretty...bows, glitter, gold pinecones...

oh Christmas tree

rad little modern tree (not my style, but I dig it). great for the minimalist in your life.

Holiday inspiration

{super simple, organic + velvet bow. I could get on board with this guy}

{pretty moss green. also love the shaggy garland over the door}

{ornament wreath. glamorous}

{subdued shiny}

 I want to make my own wreath and these are some nice ideas. I like the thought of an all berry one...a little organic-y looking... I need to round up some supplies, stat. Have you ever made a wreath before? any tips for a rookie?

found! (fallen)

{Thanksgiving table}

{before}

{after. festive! gaudy? love.}

I found these fallen pinecones on an empty lot in my neighborhood. Not too sure how I'll arrange them..maybe lots in a big bowl or if I feel ambitious string them as a garland...any ideas?
