Thanks to everyone that joined Monday's Dare to Entertain party.  There we lots of great projects this week.  I'm sharing three of my favorites.  Rachel {Maybe Matilda}, Kim {NewlyWoodwards} and Katja {Shift Ctrl Art} are sharing some of their favorites as well!

First up we have the ever crafty Amber from Wills Casa.  These hand stitched napkins are simple yet elegant. They are festive without being over the top.  A nice pairing to any table setting.  (I act like I know what I'm talking about.)  They're pretty, ok?  Also, I shall steal this tablecloth when I visit her someday.  (Invitation's still open, right?)

This December is starting off to be a cotton headed ninny muggins.  I caught a nasty stomach bug followed by a cold.  I also haven't watched Elf yet.  Horribly lame.  The beginning of December never fails to take me down.  Don't worry.  It's not as horrible as it may seem.  Because Gilmore Girls on Netflix. And the world's cutest nurse.

I have lots of holiday goodness to share once I can remove myself from the couch to photograph.  Until then, let's revisit posts of holiday past.  Maybe you missed something that will rock your holiday world.  (Like this sangria that is extra popular with the Pinterest folks this year.)

Happy Tuesday!  Who's ready for a fun holiday blog hop!  Rachel from Like a Saturday put together a holiday traditions blog hop.  25 lovely bloggers will be sharing their favorite traditions.  I've already acquired a few ideas for the future and it's only the second day!  {If you're stopping by from Life. Love. Larson., welcome!}

So what's my favorite tradition?  I had to think hard.  I'm not much of a traditions person.  My constant need for change hinders carrying things on for years and years.  I only have a couple of ornaments.  We don't really DO anything like hunt for a tree or make snow angels every year on December 13th.  We do put up a tree every year but I can write approximately two sentences about that.  "Each year we put up our 12 foot Christmas tree.  We then yell a lot as we string the lights and stab ourselves with ornament hooks."
