Five senses friday: early december edition

I love following along with abby when she does five senses friday. It's a great way to recap what I've been up to. Seeing: Holiday lights and wonderful vintage colors inside and outside the house. Love that there is now a dusting of snow on everything to make it look that much more magical.
The kids had fun doing their own candy themed tree.
Hearing: The squirt of the paint tube as Chloe gets down and dirty painting. I love watching her creativity blossom!
Tasting and smelling: I went to Trader Joe's for the first time this past week. The Candy Cane Joe Joe's are the best!! I love the smell of peppermint as I down these.
Loving: One of my favorite estate sale finds ever was found this week. These three earthenware vintage French mushroom jars. Need I say more?!
Working on: A page a day in December for my holiday journal.


Some secret crafty fun!



Have a wonderful weekend!

  2. Wow, what an estate sale find! And here I am, locked in my house, making jewelry for my home sale. Tomorrow it will be all over and I can go to some estate sales but I doubt I will find anything as cute as that, Kari! That is a major score!

  9. I love seeing the artistic freedom your sweet children have. Some Mothers just won't let their children create because they might make a mess. You are a wonderful mother. What fun they have decorating their tree
