BFF Open House Happy Thanksgiving

 

Happy Thanksgiving and Friday Eve all! Getting this party started early before we all fall into our food comas. Wishing all of my American Creative Peeps a Happy Thanksgiving. Despite all that is terrifying in the world, I'm thankful to have a day to celebrate the attitude of gratitude and be thankful for the people we love and good things in our lives. 

Are you going out shopping tomorrow? I may venture to Michaels but that's about it. With so much online shopping and Black Friday deals available, I'll be here at my desk! 

It's full on to the December holidays now with Hanukkah coming early this year on Dec. 7 and Christmas rolling in like that boulder after Indy in Raiders of the Lost Ark. No surprise that so many of you are already ready so let's take a look at some ideas shared at last week's party!

These Yarn Wrapped Framed Trees from Steph Creates are a fresh take! Rustic yet glam. 

This Couple's Advent Calendar from The House on Silverado is a wonderful way to remember to make the season special for you and your special someone. 

The Apple Street  Cottage shared a Fun and Festive Pom Pom Wreath, complete with fairy lights!

Finally, you have to check out these Iced Christmas Oreo Cookies (with a surprise inside) from Fat Dad Foodie! 

Thank you to all of you who linked up. To new party peeps, welcome. To those who are regulars, thank you. This party and seeing what you create each week are among my blessings. Creativity has gotten me through the hardest of times and knowing so many other Creatives are out there is joyous. Wishing all of my American peeps, a Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Friday Eve Creative Peeps! Can you believe Thanksgiving (American) is one week from today? You know what happens after that. It's full steam ahead for Christmas and Hanukkah. I'm almost done with this year's Christmas cards since for the first time in thirty years, I won't be hosting Thanksgiving. We're actually going away which will be completely different yet exciting for us. I loved doing it and with my Martha Stewart compulsions, always did it big, but last year when it was just the two of us for the first time...my mom was visiting her sister, we didn't have any other family to host since moving to AZ etc. I realized by not doing all the work how much work it really always was. No complaints! I loved all the years I did it but life is about trying something new and I'm actually really excited about it. This week I shared the Thanksgiving Cards I made and sent to family and friends. 

Let's take a look at some of the great things shared at last week's party! 

If this is your first time hosting or you would like to be better organized, then Blue Sky At Home has the perfect thing for you with 21 Ways to Prepare.

Whether your guests are young, older, or everywhere in between, this printable Thankful Tree from Creatively Beth is a great way to entertain them and make a memory. 

As we get close to counting down to Christmas, I LOVE this Advent Calendar for Couples from The House on Silverado. 

Finally, while we're still on Thanksgiving, if you want to add a little something to your dessert table (and I'm all for adding chocolate to Thanksgiving which is the most chocolate free celebration) or bring a dessert where you're going, check out these Nutter Butter Acorns from Drugstore Divas! 

Thanks to everyone who linked up and let's see what you've been up to this week!
