Merry & Bright - Day #1

The internet is full of so many wonderful ideas and resources, especially this time of year, and I've come across some gems recently. So, I thought it might be fun to write a little series of posts and share some of what I've found with you, my loyal readers and friends, a little gift you might say, wrapped in love and passed on to you. There will be a series of five posts starting today through Friday, and then the final post in the series will be on Monday, December 23, so five posts total! I'm looking forward to putting them together and sharing them with you, and I hope you'll enjoy!

If you were here earlier today, I hope you'll take a second look, because I decided to jazz this post up a bit and make it pretty!

And with that. . . .

Good morning, and welcome to Day #1 of MERRY & BRIGHT!

So to start right off, is this not possibly the most beautiful quilt you've ever seen? It showed up when I was searching on Instragram, and gah! I have hopes of quilting one day and I have a lot of smaller pieces saved in various places with the intention of making them, but, well, I won't tell you how long they've been saved. But, thankfully I can appreciate someone else's work and ooooh and aaahh over their accomplishments. Also, I don't remember who posted this picture, but if I can figure it out and I will come back and give due credit!

QUITE CHRISTMAS INSTRUMENTALS

I came across this playlist just this week, it's perfect to have playing in the background during your holiday get together, or while decorating the tree.

A LOVELY BLEND FOR YOUR DIFFUSER

I love my diffuser and use it year round to fill our home with lovely scents. This is one I've enjoyed lately.

O Christmas Tree

- 3 drops fir

- 3 drops cedarwood

- 3 drops pine

SEED AND SPARROW

Kelsey is one of my favorite You Tubers, a true kindred spirit! This video is particularly lovely, but I encourage you to peruse her other offerings.

- Enjoy!
