***As far as I can look ahead, friends, we WILL have Share Your Style next Wednesday, December 24th. It will just be me here as Mr. Ethereal will be working at least a half-day. Our kids aren’t driving in until the 27th, so having the party will just be a treat for me.

Bring or repost your New Year’s posts THIS WEEK so we can all enjoy next week as features (after all of those gifts are opened and you are relaxing on the couch, lol! 😉

Blessings to you in this Season of Love,

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

    1. Jeanie, I’m glad you are enjoying the 12 Days! It’ll be a tad late this morning (Friday) as I am still writing. Had two IOOF meetings last night, so writing this morning. Sharing our Christmas dining table today. 🙂

      Happy weekend to you!
      Barb 🙂

  3. Loving your 12 day series and your vacation photos are super. Thanks for the feature for the thrifted kitchen vignettes. It’s fun to be able to do simple and quick decor in the kitchen. Merry Christmas and looking forward to next week as well. Have a wonderful week before Christmas.

    1. Thank you, Lynne! This has been a fun week sharing how our house has shaped up for the season, and we had the nicest time on our trip north. The snow was just Christmas icing for me, truly!

      Have a wonderful weekend,
      Barb 🙂

  4. Thank you so much for featuring my faux arched window winter design. I appreciate it so much. Also, I love your 12 Day series. 💕 As always, thank you for hosting this wonderful linkup. Take care.

    1. Stephanie, you are sooo welcome! I made a pair of arched windows out of styrofoam but one broke, so a year ago I tossed them. Really would like a pair, or one, as they are beautiful. So glad you are enjoying the 12 Days series, too!

      Have a lovely weekend,
      Barb 🙂

  5. Thanks so much for the party, Barb! I’m enjoying your 12 Day posts and look forward to reading more in the days ahead! I hope your holiday preparations are going well! Wishing you a joyful week ahead!

    1. Hello Laura, I am so glad you are enjoying this 12 Days series! I am keeping lists of things which need to get done for everyday… Amazing how this time of year is so packed, but sooo much fun, too! Hope all is well at hand over in your neck of the woods. <3

      Thank you for the well-wishes and I hope you have a joyful week ahead, also,
      Warm hugs,
      Barb 🙂

  6. Barb, thanks so much for a great year of sharing! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

    1. Happy Christmas time to you & your family, Melynda! I appreciate your sweet thoughts, thank you. <3 I'll look for your posts for next week ~ Unfortunately, since I haven't got back on a "paid plan" with WordPress, I can't see anyone's posting email/blog title, so now I have to rely on memory, lol! I looked you up on Google and found Scratch Made Foods, so now I will remember. 😉 Get's crazy trying to find everyone just through a little icon. I know it'll get better! 😉

      Warm hugs and have a joyful week ahead,
      Barb 🙂

  8. Like so many others, I am truly enjoying your 12 day series. Thanks a bunch for including my nativity scene in the entry with the other great features ……hugs!

    1. Penny, I am so glad you enjoyed the feature. <3 I love seeing Nativities and mine will be shared soon. It's coming in the living room post I think next Monday… It's on "The List." Not quite Santa's list, but it's keep the 12 Days straight! 😉 Glad you are enjoying the series, too.

      Have a joyful Christmas week ahead,
      Barb 🙂
