Hooray for ruffles!!!



















Jonathan and I are getting very excited for another Christmas here in St. Louis. We are most eager not only for the the holiday but also for the arrival of Jonathan's parents!















In preparation for Christmas, I was recently inspired to make this banner for our living room archway. There are simply so many happy uses for old books and their beautiful pages...














In addition to festive decor, and studying for finals, I am making more shower curtains for my two sisters!




















Seeing as how it is 28 degrees outside, I felt it unnecessary to be dying any fabric, so the colors vary, only because I grabbed any suitable fabric found in different thrift stores, but they are just as fabulous as ever.




















I finished pinning them tonight, I have yet to sew and de-wrinkle them, but after that they will make their way to beneath the Berry Christmas tree!
















Elliott was of course enjoying my project maybe even a bit more than myself :)































Happy Advent!
