Christmas wishes...........just a few

I am going to post some of my happy finds. These things would make GREAT Christmas presents. Please leave a comment if you have a great find to share. I'm not into brand names or one-time-use items or anything expensive. These ideas are from the cheap side of my brain but oh so fun!

One of my new favorites: Where the Sidewalk Ends on CD.
You can get these really cheap on Ebay's Half.com-- I'm talking $5.00 maybe even under and most sellers will combine shipping.
This CD has brought me many laughs. My kids and I roll on the floor laughing. They would be great for school teachers, children of all ages, friends, heck I'm thinking I'll send one to Geoff's grandparents for Christmas too.
It is just so fun!

ok- I already mentioned the vintage inspired aprons I WANT. I'll let you know when my friends are up and running with this business selling vintage inspired aprons. If you can't wait you can get one on Ebay. Just look under Jessie Steele aprons (under $30. not including shipping). You can also go to the official website, www.JessieSteele.com to get one but they will be more $$$.

I have been reading a DARLING book titled, The Mother In Me by Kathryn Lynard Soper. If you follow NieNie you know about this book. Her sister, CJane is a contributing author.
This is a beatiful book full of inspiring thoughts on being a mother.
I LOVED it! It would make a wonderful gift for any woman of any age although the comments are focused on raising young children.

Another book I have been reading is the Love Comes Softly series by Janette Oke. Yes, that's a series of about 12 books. The movies I ABSOLUTELY LOVED!!! Again, you can get the books SUPER cheap on Half.com and you can get the movies at Deseret book or Sam's Club. Sam's Club is just a few $$$ cheaper. Currently there are 6 movies out at about $30. for a set of 3 and there are about 12 books in the series.
They are love stories with values, faith and God.

Etsy is one of my favorite places to find homemade, handcrafted, beautiful items of all sorts. Go to Etsy.com and start shopping for anything!

Scents are extremely important to me. I love smelling good, I love good smelling laundry, good smelling homes, good smelling linens, good smelling babies, good smelling deodorant my husband wears-mmmmm, you get it. Good smellin' anything!
Bath and Body Works is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE stores!!! Right now they have a big sale. You can get their antibacterial soaps 3 for $10. but if you use the coupon code 20FRIENDS you get an ADDITIONAL 20%off!!! Even on top of sale prices. It's only good till November 16th though.

My cousins just opened a shop selling girl's hair bows. They are so stinkin' cute!!! I love it. You can check out their blog at MyPrettyPetals.blogspot.com
