I love the holiday season. And even though it is totally weird to go into the store and find both Halloween costumes and Christmas lights on display withing aisles of each other, I don’t mind seeing it. I love walking through aisles of peppermint candy, snowman shaped baking pans and nutcrackers. I love that there is glitter everywhere during this time of the season.
I am ready to put my Harry Conick Jr. Christmas CD on repeat.
Yes, I have in my possession this season’s wrapping paper. I also know what i’m doing about gift tags. There are bows in the closet waiting to be adhered to packages. I just think this stuff is so pretty!
But what, I asked myself, could I do today? Then it came to me: make a garland!! Text cannot properly convey the excitement that feels like delicate bubbles raising through my torso in a frenzy. Yes, I’m going to make a garland! I saw the idea years ago here and have meant to do it ever since. I did one thing differently. Instead of gluing this, I fastened it with eyelets.
Carpe diem, yo.
