Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop 55

December 22, 2013 by Carrie

I’ve been so behind this week.

There’s so much to do before the holidays and I feel like I’m running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off.

I’m not the only one, right?

Let’s take some time to relax and see some inspiring ideas from out there in blogland.

Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop

This blog hop has five fabulous hosts which means your posts will get a 5 times the exposure!  Your posts will show up on my blog as well as Jordan from Lily White. Designs, Amy From A Blossoming Life, Sara from Sneaky Spoons, and Katie from The Casual Craftlete.   Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop

 Some of my favs from last week:

One link up that took my breath away was this one from View From The Fridge.  She made A Special Homemade Christmas Gift from her late father’s shirts.  

I lost my father 4 years ago and seeing an ornament made from his clothes would really put a smile on my face.  I miss him at Christmastime.

    I love the idea of the Christmas ornament from “dad’s” clothing. My dad passed several years ago and I have a whole bunch of his ties. I never figured out what do to with them….this has my wheels turning.

    Wishing you and yours the most joyful Christmas! 🙂
