ok I am decked out for Christmas now..

 we did the DIY snow globes in the mason jars that are floating around blog land..they turned out cute..

 we are doing ornaments on a mini tree for advent this year.. kids LOVE it..

 my sled from when I was a little girl always makes me happy...

I have another decorating idea I will post this week along with a giveaway..so check back in!

ikat pillow

I fell in love with the pillow that Megan from honey we're home had on her couch.. she sourced it from crate and barrel..at a cool $89 bucks it was a little out of my price range so I pinned it knowing I could probably diy..
I searched etsy and found this fabric from etsy seller silkway

not exact but for $7.90 a yard..close enough for me..
I had this old pillow my mom had given me that I had stored away..

and now for less than $8 bucks I have my own pillow...

(a funny thing I noticed when I put this post together at how similiar my living room couch and curtains looks to megan's..that was not intentional!)
