Love this Everlasting Garland idea from The Martha. The project seems really easy to complete and the garland can be reused again and again. They show it on a mantel, but I can think of several other places it would work just as well. I would also totally use these for party decorations as opposed to regular, boring crepe paper streamers.
I would love to see this overly girly Pretty in Pink tree sitting in the corner of my living room! Treetopia has more kinds of trees than you could ever hope to lay eyes upon, so take a look if you’re in the market.
The Martha has some great gift tags available through her line at Michael’s. I wish I had the time to devote to wrapping gifts that this woman supposedly does, but twenty to thirty minutes per gift is not feasible!
I’m loving this alternative to a traditional tree skirt – the FLOR Party Dress. The leafy cut tiles, available in Chartreuse or Brick, give trees a modern foundation of recycled felt. And I’m pretty sure I could find another use for it throughout the year to justify the purchase. Lovely.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
I won’t be posting again until Monday, but then the Christmas Madness is on.

Posted In holidays, thanksgivingIt’s entirely too early to start posting about holiday decor, but oh well. The first post was going to happen sooner or later here at Design Crush and what better way to start things off than with Martha Stewart’s holiday collection at Macy’s. It’s the jewel tones that really get me as well as the kugel ornaments. And though the wreath of ornaments in the center is only a display of colors available, what a great idea for a project. That sneaky Martha and her crew just continue to out-do themselves again and again. (Which partially explains my love/hate relationship with the woman!)
The lovely, hip SusyJack is ready for the holidays at her Etsy shop! Check out her beautiful Joy cards and Merry and Bright Holiday Gift Clips.
I keep going back for more at Fabulous Stationary – I just can’t get enough of their mod designs a striking color palettes. And now they have a huge selection of holiday cards to go along with all the other awesomeness they offer.
I’m not knocking the store bought stuff by any means because we’ve gotten through some tough times together, but holy crap do these homemade candy bars from CHOW look so, so good. Not only are these rockstars sharing their recipes for PB Cups, almond jay, TWIXT and Snickles, they’re also giving us a PDF wrapper to download for each one. A fun and well-designed one at that.
