These handmade Christmas Drink Stirrers bring so much cheer to your holiday drink, whether it’s a cocktail or even hot chocolate. It’s no secret that I love a good craft …

As I sit here to write this post, I have my favorite holiday candle burning that brings allllllll the smells of Christmas to my office, and at this moment, everything feels just right. I allowed myself a slowdown today to spend time in the kitchen, make a few homemade holiday treats, and listen to Christmas music, natch.

I have several quick and easy homemade holiday treat recipes to share that are perfect to give out to dear friends and family, and to even enjoy yourselves.

Inspiration comes from all over, and the idea of how to make a table skirt with ribbons came from a department store during Christmastime.

I’m a sucker for ribbons. I have been for as long as I can remember. I have bins of them and it’s without question that I’ll use each one at some point.  Whether I make a shower curtain, or sew a bunch together for a pillow, or hey, even wrap presents with them, I’ll use them. And when I see something made from ribbons that I admire, then I’m all in.

My love of an old farmhouse, and decorating an old house like this for Christmas, stems way back to the early 90’s. It was when Martha Stewart Living Magazine first launched, and shortly after that, her television show. I taped every episode on my VCR, and had an impressive video library, along with saving every single issue.
