Glittery Countdown to Christmas

Hello!  Are you in the midst of the holiday hustle and bustle?  It seems like the days speed up exponentially once the month of December is upon us.  I have lots of crafting and making I'd still like to do for the holidays, so I'm hoping I can squeeze a few more projects in before December 25th!  If that's going to happen, I'm going to have to make said projects both quick and easy.  But that doesn't mean they have to be short on style or cuteness!

Here is a project I shared on the Love My Tapes blog on Friday that fits the bill:

Pop on over there to see how I quickly and beautifully dressed up our Christmas book advent countdown this year!

Pebbles 'How To Tuesday'

Have you been as anxious as I have, for the warm, sunny days to arrive?  The date on the calendar now officially states that the start of spring is here, but where I live in the Midwest, we are still waiting on the weather to catch up! 

 

The long wait, has my kids and I longing for warmer days, lots of sunshine and trips to the park, but we have yet to receive any of that despite the fact that the first of spring has come and gone. Therefore, we have been forced to get an early start on our countdown to summer, where we are assured to have the nice weather and sunshine we are dreaming of. 

 

I put together this quick and easy summer countdown board, to help us track the remaining days to summer break, in a fun and festive way.

Supplies used: Pebbles - Party with Amy Locurto Splash (751452), Party with Amy Locurto Tropical (751450), Party with Amy Locurto 12" Printed Vellum Garland (732230), Basics Clothespins (747205), Basics Honeycomb Washi Tape (747211), Other - white cardstock, crochet thread, font - century gothic, IKEA frame.
