It feels like I haven't posted forever!! It seems that portfolios, projects, papers, and finals were taking over much of my time. But don't worry, I still made time to celebrate Christmas in the midst of hustle and bustle of school! I will stop talking and just post a bunch of pictures of Christmas in Manhattan :)
After going to the Holiday Christmas Home tour in Kansas City, I gained some awesome ideas of ways to decorate for Christmas in your house!
I loved this! You can buy Christmas boxes (or just wrap some of your own) and place them on top of a cake stand, wrap a ribbon around them, and you have a cute centerpiece for your kitchen table!
Cute idea to do with kids hands and feet to create a Christmas tree and Rudolph!
A festive way to store all your Christmas cookie cutters!
Buy a bunch of containers (the Dollar Store has great options) and decorate with food/candy! Marshmallows, peppermints, M&M's, red hots, and jelly beans are all festive options!
Take an old frame, spray paint it red, and add some bells and white feathers and you have a cute thing for the door or wall!
SO cute and festive ;)
After seeing so many great ideas from the house tour and pinterest, Kayla and I decided to go shopping at Target and the Dollar Store to try and re-create some things for the Penthouse :)
Kayla and I had a date night and went to Target and the dollar store and purchased decorations for the season :)
The glass containers were from the Dollar Store and then we filled it with red hots and peppermints and set on our table ;)
Kayla wrapped yarn around an old wine bottle and then we put these candle holders in front of it
All the flowers were from the Dollar Store, but who would ever know?!?!
The TV area all done :)
Shelbi conned Cam into helping her hang the lights...
...he was obviously super excited to help ;)
Kappa Christmas date party!!
We decorated cookies at the Education Ambassador Christmas party!
Fellow Ambassadors :)
It was a fun month in Manhattan celebrating Christmas with some great people! I just moved back home for student teaching next semester...ah I can't believe it's already here!!! Enjoy your winter break and I will post again soon with some more pictures from the break :) :)
Until then,
Brittany
