Nice Things for the Holidays


Look at that, it's Friday again!  There were lots of Nice Things around the internet this week...

1.  It's not too late to gift handmade this season!  EZ of Creature Comforts shared a great roundup of DIYs that are quick and easy enough to finish before Christmas.  I especially love Wit and Whistle's Chalkboard mugs:

2.  Or crochet a quick and cozy cowl using this Sedge Stitch pattern from Annelise of Aesthetic Nest:

3.  These free printable cards from Mon Carnet are so lovely, and could even work as New Year's cards if you (like me) haven't gotten your cards out yet:

4.  Thursday at My Girl Thursday (an OPB sponsor!) also shared a Christmas card printable, inspired by vintage Pyrex.  So pretty (and there's a gift-tag version, too)!

5.  These stitchable gift tags from Miniature Rhino would give gifts a perfectly homemade touch:

6.  Doing some holiday baking?  Top off your yummy baked goods with an adorable tag from Amy is the Party (an OPB sponsor!):

7.  This one isn't holiday related, but Elsie's closet tour is definitely worth a look - so inspiring!

8.  Speaking of fashion, I love Kaylah of The Dainty Squid's DIY removable shoe fringe tutorial:

9.  Finally, these pretty thank you cards from Creature Comforts will definitely come in handy next week.  Nate's family has a long-running flamingo joke, so these are definitely going to them:

Whether you are celebrating a holiday or not, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
