4 Flour Tortillas (10 inch)
1/2 Cup of White Sugar
2-4 Teaspoons of Cinnamon
4 tablespoons of Butter
White Chocolate (optional)

Baking Needs:

brown corners for desired chip done -ness. 


While chips bake, shave and dice up your apples.

Christmas Burlap Banner {Be Merry}






So, Christmas is my favorite time of year!

The traditions, magic in the air, snow and never ending family time, make me feel all warm and fuzzy! 

Below is a glimpse into my style of Christmas.





{Vintage}




{Decorations}

I've been having so much fun with Burlap this year.  I had some scrap left over from my Fall Banner, so I decided to make my favorite phrase for a Christmas Banner: Be Merry.

Below are a few images of my new banner, and how I incorporated it into my decor.  

I posted this picture to my Instagram account.  It's the first place I post anything I'm doing, even before Facebook. 



Here it is, displayed with our stockings, in the most popular room of our home...the family room.  It's a great way to be reminded during the hustle of the season, stress that might come and unexpected obstacles that might arise
 to still BE MERRY.






From our house to yours, may your days be filled with 
Merry and Joy.
