I’m clearly obsessed with tiny houses as Christmas decor this year and I don’t even know why! After making my DIY A-Frame Winter Cabin a few weeks ago, I thought it would be really cute to make a tiny one as an ornament for the tree… and then I sort of forgot about it until …
DIY A-Frame Winter Cabin …Mid-Century Modern Holiday Home Decor
On day four of election night (last Friday) and after completing one and a half 1000pc puzzles in the 3 nights prior, I was going a bit stir crazy and needed a bigger project to keep my mind and my hands busy. With the holidays just around the corner and everyone decorating for Christmas already, …

Pretty DIY Winter White Floral Wreath -for under $15
Last week this gorgeous Winter wreath from The Purl Bee popped up on my Facebook timeline. Diana posted that she loved it but wouldn’t be shelling out $98 for it… and since I wouldn’t spend that much on a wreath either, I had to click through to check it out. Sure it’s a gorgeous textured …
Hanging Stockings when You Don’t Have a Mantel
I love our fireplace. It’s big and covered from floor to ceiling in gray stone or some sort of irregular slate slabs, but it doesn’t have a mantel. It actually has a small hood with painted flowers on it and it’s original and I kind of love it because it’s so unique. We also have …
DIY Snowflake Tree Topper with Pipe Cleaners
Yes, ANOTHER PIPE CLEANER TREE TOPPER!! I obviously can’t get enough. They’re just too easy and too fabulous! While I do love this one, it’s a bit difficult to photograph and almost looks like it needs another, smaller, snowflake in front of it. But I like it. I used the same technique as my GEO …
DIY Filling Glass Heart Ornaments with Eucalyptus + Strung
Filling clear glass ornaments is nothing new, nor does it actually need a DIY tutorial.

It wasn’t until I made my Spectacular Starburst Tree Topper last year that I discovered the awesome that is pipe cleaners. And not just any pipe cleaners -metallic pipe cleaners.

My DIY Rustic Christmas Tree {in blues & browns}
In our new neutral living space, with little hints and pops of blue, I couldn’t imagine a tree in any other color palette. Being that I’ve never done a tree in these tones though, I only had a few ornaments that I could use. I grabbed some vintage ornaments in blue and teal, a few …
