Broken vases, haircuts & bagpipers!
Wow another weekend has flown by! I have been busy getting ready for Christmas at the Cottage on 11/30 and 12/1. The cardboard cones arrived and I have been busy embelishing these - they will be great for those gift cards - a fancier and more fun way to present them.
I finally set out a few Thansgiving decoations. Here is a picture of a really beautiful vase
that I bought recently from Robin at her recent sale in Orange. A few hours later it was falling to the floor no thanks to our kitten "Lucky" - not so lucky for me. It was quickly swept into the trash and a mere memory now…hopefully I will find another to replace it and keep out of kitty's way!
Sunday afternoon we went down to the Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel and enjoyed hot cocoa, cookies, the Dana Hills marching band and a group of bagpipers
in preparation for their annual tree lighting. There was even snow! I attempted to take photos of my two comedians for our Christmas card - I may have managed to get one decent shot. 
Little Nick went to the Dr. this morning and as I suspected he has bronchitis, as soon as the antibiotics kick in he'll be his old self again - spunky little guy! He's sporting a new hair cut too (buzz) thanks to his mom's hairdresser skills or lack of. He did not like the way I trimmed his sideburns so we ended up buzzing his whole head.
It sure is a glitter fest in my little office/workroom. I purchased some cute emelishments from Sharon yesterday at Floral Facelift and will continue decorating cones and other things to be shown later!

Time to get creative!
I made a few of these little Halloween cones for some of my girlfriends and filled them with nostalgic candy; candy necklace, candy corn, black and white peppermint stick and a little glow necklace. I'm going to make more for Christmas - won't they be great with a gift card or some bling tucked inside! I hope to have some ready to take to Chistmas at the Cottage holiday boutique. I used the hat that Andrea made me for the Halloween Hat Swap as my inspiration; black and white toile fabric and the piece around the top with the ribbons was actually found in the $1 section at target - it's meant to go around a dogs collar with cute little dangling spiders. Loving Martha's new line at Michael's - the little spider tag was from some of her cute Halloween things.
A shout out to my litle nephew aka Spiderman! I added a song from one of his favorite movies CARS to the blog. Isn't he adorable!
