DIY: Tissue Paper Christmas Tree

Goodmorning my precious readers!

For today, another DIY project capturing the Christmas spirit. There are so many creative ladies out there with so many fantastic projects which I find in the link parties I visit every week.  I didn't know which one to choose. One is better than the other! But this one is really cute and easy to make and most important... won't cost you almost anything as it is made out of tissue paper! So pick your favorite design of tissue paper, buy a styrofoam tree foam, get some glue and there you go:

Oh! the weather outside is frightful 

but the fire is so delightful

and since we have no place to go

let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
(Oh how I wish it would....)

DIY Christmas Decor: Snow Globes

Goodmorning everyone!

How are you this lovely sunny morning? Well in fact I'm not only singing but I', also dreaming of a white Christmas! Wouldn't it be nice? But until that time comes that we get to see Christmas and snow at the same time, I have something really really cute resembling to white Christmas! It is snow globes that you can very easily make on your own. They were found during my visits to the link parties and is made by the amazing blog It's Overflowing. It is worth paying a visit there as you will find many more handmade ornaments and other great Christmas decorations and stuf! Oh and also don't miss to see the transformation of her kitchen.

My Living Room

Today I'm not gonna show you any of those stylistic and great rooms that I use to, like those from my beloved Houzz. Today's room is not created by an interior decorator... it is made by me and it is my one and only simple and humble Living Room! The pictures were taken a week ago, before we decorate for Christmas. Notice the sunshine outside? It is 18C here in Greece these days! Hope this will change for Christmas. Oh I'm mumbling again! So see the pics below and then I'll tell you what I like, what I don't and what I need to change. So, please follow me and let me tour you!

As you walk through the front door you find the living room at your left. Here it is:

A last minute's sort of Advent Calendar

Hello my stardusted readers!

Today it was a crazy day for me. I was super busy as it was my birthday and I had to prepare the house for some good friends and family that were coming over.Meanwhile I head over to IKEA for some stuff that I wanted and there I saw some cute Christmas little paper bags. I liked them so much that I had to buy them without knowing what I would do with them. When all the visitors left from our mini party (great cake by the way!) I came up with an idea! Since tomorrow - well...actually today - is the 1st of December I would make    a kind of an advent calendar! So, I put a number on each one of them, filled them with kid's stuff and... wanna see my creation?
