{ Holiday Wrapping's }

See these lovely HUGE spools of Bakers twine???

I bought; Brown/White, Red/White & Green/White.

 I've been eyeballing these babies for the last couple years, but a few weeks ago I finally bit the bullet and purchased some. 

Oh my head is spinning with all the gifts I can wrap with this stuff. 

I was looking all over Etsy for Bakers Twine but the prices were too steep for me for the little that you were able to get, 

I only paid $8.95 per cone, hello cheap!

If you want to purchase some for yourself the best place on the internet that I have found is from HERE ,each spool has 3400 yards on it, So I think I'm set with my 10,200 yard of twine.

Well I better get back to gathering all my Thanksgiving Day stuff together, it's a balmy -2 outside right now Brrrrrrrrr, so the more I MOVE the warmer I'll be. I hope.
Happy Wrapping!

Okay I've had a few ?'s about where I got Brinley's dress for her Baptism. I got it off of good Ol' eBay of course. It came from Hong Kong (i know, i know) & took about 2 weeks to get here. I am VERY happy with the dress and so is Miss Brinley. In fact she wants to wear it to church every Sunday but I'm a kill joy and make her wear other things too.
TIP: MAKE SURE YOU MEASURE YOU DAUGHTER BEFORE ORDERING!
The eBay dress link is HERE.

Yes I will be listing some CTR Towels in my Etsy store if anyone is interested. I'm a little nervous about trying to sell them but I guess you never know until you try. ;)

The scripture tote is coming I promise....... :)

And on a completely different note I have just recently watched these Movies & thought I would pass on my reviews!

Sherlock Holmes was AMAZING!!! I could so sit and watching this one again. I love the combination of Robert Downey JR. And Jude Law... This one I will be buying on Blu-Ray when it's released. Just watch it, it's soooo good!

This show was good and reminded me that I need to talk to my kids again about stranger danger even if it's someone you think you know.

Another good one for us Mom's/Wives/Friends! Loved the storyline, love the actors, love loved LOVED IT!

Although I think my favorite part in the movie is the relationship between the 2 friends aka Uma & Minnie. 

It reminded me that you do find lifelong friends along the way, who can forgive you if you've done something wrong unlike the fair weather friends who drop you like a rock at the first sign of turbulence.

I've learned this lesson very well over the past 8 months with a certain person whom I thought was a lifelong friend. Yeah.......not so much. 

When I see her now she treats me like I am cellophane but I still say hello to her regardless, because I'd rather kill her with kindness then to be so unforgiving.

It also confirmed how grateful I am to live my simple country life instead of living in a City... I lived in New York back in 93-94 & no offense to the City but I just could not handle the noise & fast paced everything 24/7. It's a place I ♥ to visit and hope to go again someday with my Hubster to show him the sights.

And speaking of Motherhood, I had better get back to mine.
Happy Tuesday!
