Christmas Dress Possibilities

    Lily has expressed interest in having a "Christmas Dress" this year. In years past she could have cared less. I don't know what's changed but I'm not going to complain. I think she wants something that really 'dazzles'. I'm probably going to go with something gold sequiny but I saw this today and thought it looked interesting.

    Sew a feather boa to a tutu dress. Perhaps white with red or vice versa. Do they make silver boas? Something like this would be awesome with a white or silver dress.

    See more pics of this dress here.

Scarf Season

    For a couple years I had been trying to make a new scarf variation for each of the female family members as Christmas gifts. Last year I fell short but I've been looking at some lately and here's a few that caught my eye.

    It has a pattern here but its in another language. Does anyone know how to make the crochet flowers? Is there an easy way? I don't think I could make one let alone seven if it meant spending 30 minutes a flower. But this one is probably my fav.


    Also, really liking something like this. And it might be more practical. Could make from recycled sweaters.

    This is actually pretty funny. I like. Would also work with a regular scarf.

    I wonder how this would look using wool felt instead of crochet. Would make my life a lot easier.

    Any scarves you've had an eye on making?

Hanging Chandelier DIY

    Some of you might have seen my DIY Christmas light chandelier hanging in my dining room from a previous post. I like the way it looks on but when it's turned off it's not quite as impressive.


    But I like what Olive and Cocoa did with their chandelier. Perhaps you could add Christmas lights between the branches rather than tea lights so you could use a more practical light switch. That way it looks good when on AND off. I also like the ribbons.

    Interviews, November 2011

    Katie talks about their Thanksgiving plans!

    We’re going to be in Los Angeles and I’m not a big cook so I usually go to the flower mart in downtown Los Angeles and I make up for my lack of cooking with a good presentation,” Katie told Martha Stewart as she filmed an appearance for Tuesday’s “The Martha Stewart Show.”

     The actress, wife to Tom Cruise and mom to Suri Cruise, said she does have a meal ready too, but she’s not usually behind the preparation.
     “I make sure the fixings are there I just don’t tell how they got there,” Katie explained.

     There is one thing, however, Katie does make – pumpkin bars.
     “My mom started a tradition where she makes these amazing pumpkin bars — almost like a pumpkin cake with cream cheese frosting, but it’s not too spicy. In my family we travel so much and we’re constantly living in hotels, so my daughter and I have been in the living room of the hotel with powdered sugar going everywhere making this to keep up the tradition,” the “Jack and Jill” actress said.

    The "Jack & Jill" star tells Martha Stewart in an episode of "The Martha Stewart Show" airing Tuesday, November 15th.

Cute Cheap Dress 33: Maternity

    I don't find many cute cheap maternity dresses but every once in a while I'll see something I like.
    Like this pony print dress!
    Only $28 at Debenhams.
    Use coupon code: PG7D for 20% discount. Price above reflects coupon.

    Only $30.56 at Debenhams.
    Use coupon code: PG7D for 20% discount. Price above reflects coupon. 
    Psst....not sold in stores. I learned the hard way:(
    But if you buy online you can get another at 50% off! So potentially you could only pay $22.50 each for two. 
    (I'd pick the Crab Apple Red and pair with a dark grey cardigan. Then I'd get the Peacock and pair with a mustard yellow cardigan.)
    Free shipping when you spend $50 or more.
