It's begining to look a lot like Christmas....

Ok folks...I'm in a GREAT mood! The upcoming Christmas holiday is starting to descend upon us & I LOVE IT! I am the Queen of Christmas! Princess Bear has truly become the Princess of Christmas. We get this from my dad who is a Christmas freak. Honestly we have so many Christmas decorations we can't even get near displaying everything. I love everything about the season. Now don't get me wrong I'm not ready to put up any of our trees (yes that is a multiple as in 1 live in the living room, 1 in the kitchen, 1 in the family room, 1 in each bathroom, 1 in my room and 1 in PB's room) and I'm not ready to dig out the Christmas music but I am ready to start planning. I think it started when my dad brought home the first of many containers of egg nog last night. Today I used my favorite coffee mate flavor...Peppermint Mocha! Since I don't do coffee often and I slept for 8 hours...yep...me+8 Hours of sleep...woohoo! I feel great! My folks are driving back to Chicago for a family party and I'm fully caffeinated, having a lazy day with Princess Bear and watching the Fox Pregame show on TV. Honestly does it get any better? (the correct answer is NO! & I really do love me some Howie Long!) So in honor of my great mood and my love of hanging out online randomly wasting time I decided to check out etsy and share with you some random Christmas findings. Truly this are random findings. I don't know any of these sellers, have never bought any of their things but thought "Hey this is cute/cool/a good idea" or something along those lines and decided to share with you. As a person who used and is going to set up an online store I can tell you that the holidays are a great time to support the little seller. You get more attention, often a better made product and what isn't to like about that? So without further ado here is a list of some things I think are cool!

Great Sculpted bows This are so cute for any little princess & frankly I'm jealous of her talent! I see these in PB's future!
Handmade Holiday Cards Very cute!
Another cute Hair Clippy
Gift Tags These have a very vintage feel
Snowman Brooch just darling!
Girls Embroidered shirt Great for showing some Christmas spirit
Christmas Candles a set of 6 Christmas scented votives
Santa Centerpiece
Gift tags very whimsical
Bloomer Panties ok its good to know that I'm the only mom who wants her daughter decked out from the top of her head to the tips of her toes!
Gingerbread DIY PDF file this is so cool! Print it and put it together! I love this concept!
Wood Cut Ornament This is very cool & there are many to choose from
Printable tags another concept I love. Print & you're good to go!
Felt tree ornaments Darling & I'm always looking for ornaments that are PB, cat & dog safe!
Snowman crochet pattern this is so cute & makes me wish I could crochet much better than I do!
Handpainted ornaments These are so pretty & she has many different designs
Ho Ho Ho garland so cute! She has different says and different holidays
Santa Hat & Bloomers Ok, I would have given my eyeteeth for this when PB was a baby & my bil would have a fit if I put my nephew in this for pics. If I thought there was a chance of my having more kids I honestly would buy this and store it for the perfect photo op!
Snowflake dog dress I am one of those people that is crazy enough to dress her pets. Unfortunately our current pets are too big (and the cat would shred me alive if I tried to put this on her) but this is darling!
Holiday Candy wrappers I love doing this for PB to share with her friends and these are cute!
Santa & Snowman painted shovel very cute and has many other designs too
Christmas whipped body butter I'm a lotion junkie! I also love her scent descriptions!

I love Christmas too!

Three trees at our house -- living room, older girl's room, and then younger girl's room.

Plus, a wreath on every door, sleigh bells on door knobs, and a nutcracker collection on the fireplace.

A girl after my own heart...I dress my pets too! When we were little, my sister and I sewed clothes for our maltese dog. *U*
Cool music on your playlist.
