a christmas diy!

i just love pinterest.  i love getting holiday inspiration and i try to accomplish at least one or two of my favorites.  well, i completed my first of the season!  i absolutely adored the look of these white christmas ornaments from bazar & co with festive words and stars on them!

white christmas boules collection

i knew that i could turn this into a diy with some plain white christmas ornaments and a paint pen!  i love the writing font as well, so i tried to copy it as close as i could while still keeping it easy and free-handing it.

well, i couldn't be happier with the results!!  it took hardly any time at all...perhaps 20 minutes at the most.  i can't wait to put these into a cute little container and display them for the holidays!

i'm tempted to pick up a few more and go to town making a bunch of these babies!  what do you think?

the prized pear

the fabulous Justin, from vivaestelle on etsy, sent me an extra photograph of this delightful pear for my prize winnings from the other week.  we decided that we would offer it up as a prize for an upcoming challenge in our flashmob team.

here is a picture of the lovely picture.  it has such gorgeous and rich red and blue hues in it!!

who will win this fabulous prize?  well, with the talent on the flashmob team, it truly could be anyone!!
