This year, I kept meaning to pick up a fresh wreath from my local florist, but never managed to get around to it.  Then… I stumbled across this beauty on Pinterest.

This adorably chic tinsel wreath is so simple to make and adds sparkly festive flare to any room. And so… number 7 on my Countdown to Christmas list is another fun holiday DIY project.

It’ll be gold tinsel for me (obviously)… how about you?

One of the best things about the holidays is curling up on the coach with a cup of hot cocoa and warm & cozy blanket… which is why, #15 on my countdown to Christmas list is what I think is the coziest blanket in all the land.

Whether you’re treating yourself this holiday season or looking for a universal gift that will make anyone on your list happy, this chunky knit blanket is perfection!

For many of us, a key way of getting into the holiday spirit involves watching some good-old Christmas movie classics.  Which brings me to #16 on my Countdown to Christmas list… my favorite holiday movie of all time… Home Alone!  It’s been a family tradition for the last 20+ years to watch Home Alone on Christmas Eve while wrapping presents (and maybe a couple of times before then too).  It always does the trick of keeping me motivated to wrap the plethora of presents resulting from my shopping addiction (and procrastination) 🙂

In addition to decorating, gift giving and family time, Christmas is all about the parties.  Of course you can’t show up empty-handed, and bringing a bottle of wine while nice, is just so expected.  So, this year, why not glam it up a bit?

Coming in at #21 is a great gift pick is for the hostess.  These rose gold beauties are the perfect gift and I’m absolutely loving them!

Coming in at #22 is a gift pick for the guys. While they’re never easy to shop for, you can typically count on guys to be technology buffs, which is a good starting place for gift giving.

So here is a perfect gift pick for your BFF (or maybe just a little gift for yourself).
