Can’t believe how fast this holiday season has gone. I told myself I would be R-E-A-L-L-Y organized and get so much done before December, just so I could enjoy every little bit of this holiday season. I even started listening to Christmas music back in October…that’s how pumped I have been to celebrate the holidays. I’m done shopping but not finished with all the homemade gifts I am making. So tomorrow will be busy busy. I’m glad I’ll be staying home for most of the day working on projects instead of fighting the holiday traffic!
So I just wanted to share with you an idea I made for Adam. I wanted to do something fun for his Christmas present. I had been looking for the perfect vintage suitcase for weeks now and one day when Adam and I were out for lunch we ran into Grandma’s Attic…one of my favorite thrift stores here. And we found this awesome blueish suitcase. So he knew how excited I was to find it but of course I had no idea what I was going to use it for. So basically for the 12 days of Christmas he has something special to open…maybe a gift, maybe just a note, every day is different. I got the idea from one of my best friends growing up. Her grandmother always gave the grandkids 12 gifts, 12 days before Christmas and I thought that was the coolest idea.
And in case you are wondering I got the wooden tag on the big red box from The Hickory Tree’s Etsy Shop. I got a few more things from her shop that you’ll see soon in another crafty post.
