Christmas Eve Questionnaire

Merry Christmas Eve everyone! I hope it's going wonderfully for everyone! I don't really have much to do today, we always celebrate on Christmas, but a relaxing day off work is really all I could ask for. I realize I did not do a Monday Questionnaire yesterday, but here's an even better questionnaire completely about Christmas! Who can turn that down? I hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday. What was on your wish list this year?

 Hot Chocolate or Eggnog...Hot Chocolate all the way. I have never liked the taste of eggnog. Maybe it's an acquired taste.

Does Santa wrap gifts or leave them unwrapped under the tree...
Santa did not wrap his gifts, he always set them out on the couches for us. I always got the big couch since I was the oldest. :)

Colored lights or white...
This year we have colored lights, but I really prefer white lights. It just looks so much cleaner and classy.

When do you decorate....
We have always decorated either Thanksgiving night or the day after. This year we were out of town the week of Thanksgiving so we decorated the Sunday before.

Real or fake...
Fake. I love the smell of real trees, it is just really too much work.

What type of topper tops your tree...
I have a bow ribbon this year that my Grandmother bought for me.

Favorite Christmas memory or tradition...
I was just talking about this last night...we have always talked my dad into letting us open gifts on Christmas Eve night. It always drove him crazy, but he always caved.

Favorite gift as a child...
Ahh, I have no idea. My mom always went a little overboard. For the past few years my dad and boyfriend always get me a charm for my Pandora bracelet, I would say these are my most recent favorite gifts.

Do you prefer giving or receiving...
Who can lie and say they don't enjoy getting gifts? Not me, I do love it, but I also enjoy getting gifts and making gifts for everyone. I love to see the happiness in their faces.

What is your favorite Christmas song?


Candy Canes...yuck or yum?
Yum, but I love the Jolly Rancher flavored candy canes. Your whole face turns blue!

Online or stores?
Both. Anytime I find something in the store, I always check eBay for a cheaper price.

Photo Cards, Letter, or Store bought?
Hmm, really all of the above. I have a photographer boyfriend so pictures are always on stack, but  I love being able to write my personal touch on cards.

Personal Planner Setup

I have been using a planner for as long as I can remember. My little OCD self needs something to keep me grounded and on track. About 3 years ago I discovered Erin Condren as well as the planner community on social media (if you are a planner person check them out, it is such a positive and supportive group of people). If you're not familiar, the Erin Condren Life Planner is an A5 size planner (7" by 9") and is a thick planner. For me, this type of planner is not convenient for every day use so this planner stays at home on my desk and is used mostly for my creative side, not functionality. This brings me to my personal size planner, I use a Kate Spade Wellesley planner which can be bought at the Kate Spade Outlet stores (these outlets will ship to you so call around if you don't live close to one and are interested). Currently as pictured above I am using the red version which was re-released this Summer, and I also have a black version which is always in stock....

Blogtober Day 24! DIY Remove Black Stains from Hardwood Floors

      This blog is coming to you by accident, of course. I don't know if I've mentioned it much on this blog, but I have two pitbulls. I know, a lot to handle, and one of them is a puppy. She is horrible sometimes, but I can't help but love her. Our whole house is hardwood floors, which I love! With my two dogs, if the happen to have an accident it's really easy to clean up...or so I thought.  We have had a large living room rug down for about 6 months now. Over the weekend we decided to take it outside and air it out and do a little "Fall Cleaning". Low and behold underneath the rug were huge dark black spots on the hardwood. I immediately jumped on Pinterest to see what to do. It turns out dogs urine causes the wood to turn black (who knew?). So I found a solution that I'm really excited to share with you.  Peroxide! Awesome, I had plenty on hand and immediately started to try it out. At first I used a paint brush to apply it to the specific areas.  Almo...

DIY IKEA Kitchen Shelf

  It is finally complete! I have been working on decorating this bad boy for a few weeks now and I'm in love! Thanks to my dear husband we were able to turn this cheap IKEA shelving unit into an adorable farmhouse style kitchen shelf pretty easily. See below for our step by step!    This is the IKEA Mulig Shelving Unit which is $59.99 for the largest size. This measures 47 1/4x13 3/8x63 3/4 "    We purchased a 3/4" piece of plywood at Home Depot in which we got cut in store for each shelf. These measure 46 1/2" by 13"    Also at a Home Depot we purchased a tube of Loctite Power Grip and a small can of Golden Pecan stain . This stain matches a few other items in our house so they would all look cohesive.    Once home, let the staining begin.      After one coat of stain was dry we used the Loctite to place the plywood on the shelves...
