It's starting to look a little like Christmas........

Before you guys blast me and tell me Halloween isn't even here yet, like my husband did, hear me out! Being in retail as many years as I have, when all the stores around you start changing out their windows, you feel the pressure to do so too. We even put out Christmas paper early this year and have already sold out, so we decided to buy more collections.

Again this year there will be the Christmas table with the Top 10 ideas from the design team, and some have already arrived to the store. We also have some ornament ideas with templates. Sherri made this banner from Maya Road acrylic house album, chipboard letters and scrolls, she also played with the applique pen. Betty brought these adorable candles in that she made using what she learned from Wendy Vecchi with grunge board. Annette totally grunged up this desk calendar/note pad set with some Graphic 45. These calendar sets will be for sale.
This is my new favorite window! I wanted something with only white, silver and brown. Two "HOT" things this year seemed to be owls and clocks, so thats what I used. My new white friend is Snow.
This was last years favorite window, I still love this window and even added some new balls!
More Christmas projects................................................

We have gotten ALOT of Christmas in.........Cosmo Cricket...................
Little Yellow Bicycle................................
CI Danielle Johnson.............................................
CI Tinsel Town....................................................................
And believe it or not, there is still alot more to come......................Basic Grey, October Afternoon, Making Memories, K&Co., Imaginise and more CI.

Remember Santa is watching you........who is naughty or nice!

Is it too late to be nice? The store really does look great. You did a great job on it! Snow is my favorite bird although I don't think those pigeons across the street like him...LOL. The pictures turned out really good!

It does look festive. I don't think I can really enjoy it until Halloween passes, but I love that you're getting ready. :)

I missed you at the store yesterday...but I have to tell you that it is even more beautiful in person. I am craving winter and the store totally got me in the mood.
