Christmas Wreaths

I just love a good Christmas wreath. I don't know about your house but in mine we don't limit a wreath to only the front door. In our house we have them festively hanging on all the doors and our foyer table. There is so many variations of wreaths out there it's hard to just narrow it down to one for the front door. By using wreaths to decorate the inside of the house, we get to add twice as much cheer and get creative with our wreaths. Here's some of my favorites...

 

 

 

This one is created out of all your favorite Christmas songs!

 

 

I love everything vintage and this vintage ornament wreath is to die for!

 

This one you can find everything you need to make it at the dollar store... 

 

Then there's this very natural, winter wreath... 

 

So this year when you go to put up a wreath on your door, don't limit yourself to just that one spot. You can get really creative and make your house look extra festive. I know this year we will have multiple wreaths up in the house. Happy decorating!

Weekend Review

The Sacramento Kings had a VIP event over the weekend. You could come down to the arena and pick out new seats for next season. They were also providing food and drinks. Enough said! Besides their amazing macaroni and cheese which by the way included bacon bits, we chose some new seats. Lower level and behind the opposing team bench.

We're actually on the other side of the photo and closer. Last year we sat on the side behind the basketball hoop. Don't worry, I'm sure when the season starts, I'll bombard you with Kings Game photos from the awesome seats.

Did I mention my All-American wreath? I don't think I did. This year I've gotten into making a wreath for every holiday. This is what I made for Memorial Day...

Yep. Watch out Martha Stewart. I'm coming for you! Side note: I bought Martha Stewart stock and every day since then it's went down. So really MS watch your back. You will be seeing this wreath again in my 4th of July décor. I made it though and it took some time.

 

This weekend, I went to the movies and saw...

This is not my type of movie but it was actually a decent watch. Will I watch it again? No but it was entertaining for the two hours that it took for Godzilla to destroy everything (not a spoiler).

 

Speaking of movies in the last two- three weeks, I've seen a ton of new movies:

 

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty- Horrible

Grudge Match- Good, I'd watch it again

Last Vegas- Not what I was expecting but good

Dallas Buyers Club- Couldn't watch the whole thing

The Wolf on Wall Street- Longest movie ever

Gravity- Good

 

If I hadn't had a redbox coupon that allowed me to rent The Secret Life of Walter Mitty for 32 cents then I'd be asking for my 1.50 back. I thought the entire movie was awful. I'm glad I didn't waste money on it back in the theater. And that was my weekend!

 

Happy Monday!

Weekend Review

My weekend started Wednesday night when Beezy and I headed to watch the Sacramento Kings take on the New York Knicks.

The Kings weren't successful in their attempt to win but I always enjoy watching the Kings Dancer and guessing which outfit and routine they'll be performing in. Plus they have these inflatable guys who come out and they are seriously cute. Anyways.. moving on.

I have a confession to make. I use to hate on Chipotle all the time without ever having tried it. Well folks, I tried it and it's pretty darn good. I've been there twice in like a week. I might even go back today. Their chicken and rice?!? Um good! Heck yes.

It's like Heaven in your mouth.


I completed another DIY wreath. This one was for someone and Easter themed. I even had to break out the hot glue gun. (I also remembered why I hate the glue gun when hot glue got on my skin).

That bunny in the carrot car... too cute!

 

And then to end my weekend... I got flowers just because.
