White Christmas

Ahhh, we are in the midst of a chaotic, hectic, all round crazy week! Our flight leaves on Wednesday morning and we will be delivering the last of our holiday WhiteBerry custom paint jobs right up until Tuesday night. I am totally looking forward to feeling the plane leave the runway, then I know I have nothing left to do but relax!

But even amidst the packing, cleaning and painting I still have a little itch for some holiday magic. A few weeks ago I delivered a cabinet to a client just as her family was decorating a beautiful white feather tree (which she scored on craigslist or kijiji for $40! JEALOUS!) and ever since then I, too, have been dreaming of a white Christmas...

If I can't have one in my house I think I will still have one in my dreams this year. No matter if it is full and tall or small and sparse, I just love the look of a white tree!








And if you are still trying to finish up your holiday shopping I have to recommend an awesome little gift that Sean's Mom gave us on our "early Christmas" on Sunday: a milk frother. Totally something I would never think to buy myself but if you make a lot of cappucinos or hot chocolates at home I HIGHLY recommend throwing one of those babies in a few stockings.
THANKS BARB!!! (And Kate, LOVED your gift and can't wait to blog it ASAP!)
I am doubtful I will be back before Wednesday, so good luck with all your last minute holiday preparations and can't wait to throw a fun little blog birthday on Thursday as I turn the big 2-7!

I thought I was ready to move on to January, but looking at your tree inspiration just now has me wishing Christmas was back :)
Thanks for the Tuesday pick-me-up.
