There's only one more month until Christmas! The kids couldn't wait to get the house decorated and have been begging us to get the Christmas tree out. So my home has been ready to receive Christmas since the day after Remembrance Day.

So we got our Christmas Tree out now that we actually have a place for it, and of course, our Crochet Christmas Tree that I made a few years ago. I love how this flat Christmas Tree with flat Christmas bauble ornaments has continued to be a part of our family Christmas tradition.

As I am typing up this blog post, my kids are drafting up their letters to Santa thanking him for their present last year and asking for something new this year.

Christmas Advent Calendars are a great way to continue building up the excitement until Christmas morning and make wonderful gifts for kids, especially when they're reusable year after year!

While shopping on Etsy, I've found some beautiful Advent Calendars that I thought I'd share with you all!

In the arts and crafts world, there are so many talented artists. However, as we all know, it's difficult to make a living as an artist.

I've been fascinated by the creativity of how some artists can turn their love and passion into something that can help not only to support their hobbies but into their careers.

Enamel pin collecting and trading are not new, but it felt like it has exploded in the last decade into something bigger than it used to be. Just think of those people who collect Disney pins and trade them within the theme parks with their cast members.

People collect enamel pins for all different reasons. You probably own some just because they're cute! Other people collect and display them as a way of making a statement.

If you want to show your passion for crocheting, knitting, or simply for the love of yarn, consider these amazing enamel pins that I've found!
