*Anthropologie Inspired* Holiday Village Wreath

As soon as the weather turns cold and I know winter is right around the corner, I start scouring Anthropologie’s website for their new holiday items! I love the unique and colorful pieces they put out each season, but sometimes my wallet is not so happy with the price tag of some of these cute items that I add to my cart. As my grandma used to say when she found something she liked while shopping, “How much is cute?” 😛 I’m a wreath lover and when I saw Anthro’s Snowy Village Wreath, I had to have it! The almost $200 price tag though, eek! I definitely couldn’t spend that on a wreath, so I made a plan to DIY one inspired by Anthropologie’s that I would love just as much! 🙂

Kid’s Mini Library: Christmas Edition

The tree is up, the house is decorated, and I have been playing Christmas music as much as I can to try to get the family into the Christmas spirit! With so much hustle and bustle of fun that comes with the holidays, I really try to take some downtime each day to sit with my little ones and read together. Some days they’ll enjoy reading for almost an hour, some days it’s more like 5 minutes, but no matter! Having that quiet time with them on a regular basis really helps to calm them down when there is so much energy being exerted (emotionally and physically) during the fun of the holidays. Here are the books that we have been reading in our mini “library” that are putting us in the holiday mood 🙂

Kid’s Mini Library: Fall Edition

Fall is here and our mini library is all ready to celebrate the autumn season!

Oh how I LOVE fall! The crisp chill to the air, gorgeous array of leaves, and abundance of fun fall activities like trips to the pumpkin patch that make this time of year so fun! My little wildflowers absolutely love to take nature walks during this time of year. We examine all of the neat fall leaves strewn along the ground, gather acorns they find along the trail, and listen to the howl of the wind rustling through the trees. We’ve updated our little “mini library” shelves in our kids’ room for autumn and set up all of our fall themed books that we love to read this time of year. A few of them my kids just love to read over and over, and it makes my heart so happy when a sweet little one runs up to me with a book and yells “Read it, Mama!” The love of reading is such a treasure, I am thrilled that I’ve been able to pass it down to my kids! 🙂 Here is our fall selection of books we have on our shelves and are enjoying on these brisk autumn afternoons:
