MARIE ANTOINETTE is coming to my house for Christmas!

The tree is up, the ornaments are out, the feathers are flying and the glitter is everywhere. I'm decorating my house with a Marie Antoinette theme this year. Tree top crowns, scrumptious cakes, sweet candies, coaches, masks for the ball, glittered garland, jewels, pearls and everything necessary when expecting the great Marie for a visit.

I am sharing my sneak peeks of some lovely decorations which are in their rightful place awaiting the finishing touches.

Keep checking back for the BIG REVEAL of the entire room full of pomp and circumstance!

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY!

I'M AN ANGEL!



Of course not EVERYONE I know thinks so!

But I know this Christmas one lucky little eleven year old girl is going to be really happy when her Angel (Santa) arrives with Warm Cupcake Adorned Flannel Pajamas, Pink Decorated Funky Sneakers, Warm Knee Socks, a great pair of Velour Pants with an awesome matching Hoodie, and a Justin Beiber CD.

I don't know this little girl, but she lives somewhere in my town (and in my heart). Her family is poor and they have been chosen by "The Salvation Army" to receive much needed clothes and shoes. So instead of shedding tears today ~ which I've been doing almost every day this year (it's been a very sad one), I'm going to put a smile on my face and thank God for everything I do have, especially friends like you who call me daily to see how I'm doing, who email me to let me know you're thinking of me, who send me handmade gifts and uplifting greeting cards to cheer me up, and who leave comments on my blog thanking me for giving them a dose of daily inspiration ~ but mostly for giving me hope that I'm not alone and there are people all over the world who love me and think of me often, even when I think I'm ALONE.

FOR ALL THIS LOVE AND KINDNESS I THANK YOU.

Perform a Random Act of Kindness Today
and Give to Someone Less Fortunate than Yourself,
IT FEELS REALLY GOOD!

BEACH COTTAGE HOLIDAY GIFTS

Just a few fun and affordable items for all the Beach and Seaside lovers. I'm continuing this fun summery theme throughout the holiday season because I know that even if it's cold here in New England, it's still hot somewhere else in the world.
