Christmas Ornament DIY Ideas

I was invited by Tend to create a video, sharing some of my favorite Christmas ornament DIY ideas. I can't tell you how fun this was.

I headed to a cool DIY space in San Francisco called Workshop. They had everything set up there (including a makeup and hair person). Given that I spend most of my days in my office (garage), in my yoga pants, in front of my computer, it was such a change, and I felt like a real celebrity. Kim Kardashian, watch out!





Santa Claus Cupcakes DIY

I love food crafting! When I saw that our snowman cupcakes were such a hit this year, I decided to try my hand at this Santa Claus cupcakes DIY.

Using mostly store-bought items I was able to make these pretty quickly, and I think they turned out so cute. To me these little Santas almost came to life... so much so, that when my daughter bit into one, I actually felt a little pang in my heart. :( I know, the good thing is I can always make more!

 Shauna Krantz from Ella and Annie Magazine, is here with a fabric hanging lights DIY that can beautifully illuminate to any holiday or room.  

I first saw these fabric lights on the Land of Nod blog and fell in love. I wanted to create a mini version for my daughter’s bedrooms, the perfect night lights for bedtime: pretty, fun and enchanting.
