Make it Pretty Monday - Week 162

Hello World!  Well, here we are; officially at the beginning of Christmas week!  I hope you are taking time to rest and enjoy the season.  My sweets, it's important to take time to slow down.  Grab a favorite beverage, put your feet up and enjoy the features and the party!

Before we begin, I've had several inquiries about the Vintage Board that currently sits on top of my piano.  I showed it off in my post, Christmas in the Hearth Room

It's from Mary & Martha.  There are different sets of tiles to choose from.  These tiles slide in and out on the side.  Click here to order the vintage board and two sets of hymn tiles.  Click here to order the vintage board and Christmas set of tiles.  Get yourself an after Christmas gift to enjoy all year round.

  11. Greetings from Puerto Rico! We spent all day yesterday traveling so I was thrilled to check the computer this morning and see that my sewing table had been featured at Make It Pretty. Thank you so much! My youngest just graduated from college so we decided to celebrate and spend Christmas in Puerto Rico.Funny thing is that it's going to be almost as warm at home this year! I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!!!
