ADVENT CALENDAR ROUND UP

Despite the fact that it is unseasonably warm and rainy here in New York and despite the fact that we are nearly half-way through December already, I thought I would share a round up of the best DIY advent calendars roaming the blogosphere these days. Because advent calendars (even if started late!) are the perfect way to get into the holiday spirit in the face of busy winter schedules and uncooperatively balmy forecasts.

Without further ado, let the advents commence! And bring on the holidays!

BRING ON THE HOLIDAYS

Tonight I am headed home to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with my family. I am very much looking forward to some down time watching the Dog Show, eating lots of delicious food, and (best of all!) hanging out with family and friends. What are your plans for the holiday?


I also thought I would share some of the things on my 'to do' list for the weekend:


--1-- Making this delicious Cranberry Pear Pie recipe and my family's traditional cranberry applesauce


--2-- Making an advent calendar from Oh Happy Day's amazing DIY printables 


--3-- Heading here on Black Friday to do some early Christmas shopping; so many cute things this season!


Have a great holiday! I will see you back here with some sweet holiday posts next Monday!
