ONE I have recently (like, yesterday) become obsessed with this giant dot bedding from Nordstrom. Isn’t it just adorable? And at $98 is much less than the dot blanket I posted last week!  I can’t find the shams on the site, but as soon as I do, you’ll be the first to know.  TWO Porcelain pinecone votives from Crate and Barrel are my favorite holiday purchase this year at$2.95 each.  They create such a beautiful warm glow and I think I’ll keep them up all winter long, just changing out the THREE Cedar & Balsam candles from Illume.  They’re like Christmas in a can.  I can’t get enough, $9. FOUR galvanized planters from Terrain are on sale and will be great for late winter/early spring on the porch. FIVE it’s winter, and my skin is dry and flaky (do I sound like a lotion commercial?) well, it’s true.  I saw this scrub and thought it might be the perfect thing to get my skin the the holiday spirit, $44. SIX cute and to the point thank you cards for after the holidays from J. Crew, $26.

Christmas has snuck right up on us!  Although most of the stuff here is probably still up for consideration with two-day shipping, if you want to venture out this weekend and make some gorgeous gifts, I’ve posted three DIY gift ideas that (although kind of girly) are great for people you’re still not quite done shopping for.  Check them out here.

This weekend, I plan on relaxing as much as possible.  I’ve had a very busy week preparing for my Grandiflora trunk show which was Wednesday and going out to dinners with friends.  I hope to watch some Christmas movies and snuggle up by a fire for the large majority of Saturday and Sunday night! How about you?
