It’s hard to believe that it’s November already. How can it be that 2019 is almost over? (And we’re about to start a new decade!!)
And you know what that means…time to start planning for the holidays!
To get the process started, I’ve teamed up with a whole bunch of other bloggers to bring you more than 50 DIY Holiday Ideas – from wreaths to ornaments to home decor to gifts, games and recipe ideas. There’s something for everyone.
