I blame my sister. We had a mini-sister day planned, so while I was waiting for her to come home, I picked up the book and started reading. While the writing isn’t exactly Nobel Prize-worthy, I found the book to me strangely addicting.
Where’s that, you ask? Depends on my current mood, but the place I usually find something to cheer me up is Etsy. I’m constantly amazed by how many creative souls are out there and I’m happy to support entrepreneurs and independent artisans as much as possible. I have many of them to thank for various items purchased for my May wedding.
Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away, and here are some special finds that would be great for the holiday season:
So I’m having a housewarming party this Saturday and have been looking for ways to decorate without spending too much money. On Eat Drink Chic, I came across a post on some super-simple DIY cup wrappers for candy or other little snacks. Check it out!
I think I’ll fill these with all my leftover Halloween candy (someone other than myself needs to help eat these).
Any other simple, hassle-free, and cost-friendly ideas for a housewarming party? Let me know!
Through the magic of Facebook and its links to tagged photos of friends, I came across pictures from a group called Korean-American Mommies (KAM) and a Halloween party they held last week, complete with a collection of photobooth pictures that will make anyone’s heart melt. Seriously, kids costumes have come a long way since my childhood in the 80’s, where we wore plastic devil masks with matching plastic (and probably flammable) outfits, or repurposed old clothes and rags tied to sticks to dress up as hobos.
Check out Youkeun’s blog for highlights, and his Facebook gallery for the entire set of pics. My favorites included a baby Hershey kiss, a Super Mario Brothers family, and an unhappy little flower. What were yours?
