We are pretty wild about candy canes and popcorn, and we are glad it’s December so we can start making our delicious Candy Cane Popcorn.
Most of the recipes we’ve seen out there include white chocolate, but we aren’t big fans. This version is an ooey-gooey goodness of buttery, caramel popcorn mixed with a fresh peppermint crunch. It’s nothing short of spectacular. Seriously you should make some today too.
Let me just begin with an apology for the poor photo quality. I forgot to bring along my real camera so I did my best with poor lighting and my iphone. I wasn’t planning to post about this event, but we ended up getting requests for the free printables we used to decorate the tables, so we decided to share them even if we are embarrassed by the photos. UPDATE: Thanks to Jamielyn we now have some better photos!
I am a huge fan of White Christmas… both the movie and the snowy holiday. So I was excited when Jamielyn told me that would be the theme for Glitter Academy — an AZ craft night and blogger meet up that is so much fun!
We are totally hooked on these Mod Podge signs and have another adorable free printable to share with you today.
As we were shooting this and this and brainstorming about the antiques we’d shop for on this trip, we had a momentary stroke of genius… a Jingle Way Street Sign. Of course finding an actual “Jingle Way” street sign on our antiquing trip would have been divine, but since that didn’t happen I whipped together this printable freebie to make some to give as gifts
From decking the halls and delivering gifts to hanging the stockings… we’ve got you covered with a dozen festive, free printables from our fabulous blogger friends!
First up we’ve got an easy answer to personalizing your stockings.
There are lots of reasons why the holidays can feel overwhelming to us moms, but one big issue is having a nice gift to give to the LONG list of family, friends, neighbors, etc. Today we’re sharing the perfect solution to holiday gift-giving woes. This adorable “Jingle All the Way” sign is super simple to make using our free printable and Mod Podge. We especially love that they can easily be produced in mass so you’ll have plenty to go around.
In case you’re not familiar, Mod Podge is an all-in-one gluer, sealer and finish. It really works wonders, and we are quickly becoming addicted to using Mod Podge to adhere our printables to boards for quick, easy signs. Mod Podge is available at craft stores nationwide and online.
Today we are using our favorite Mod Podge Matte formula as well as Mod Podge Sparkle, which is embedded with festive, iridescent glitter.
So friends, I have some exciting news to share! I’ve been holding out on you for a few months… perhaps …

Yesterday Bettijo posted her favorite Christmas treat, so we thought it would be fun for me to post mine today. My most favorite food is chips and salsa (and in my opinion that tops any treat I’ve ever had), but that didn’t seem quite appropriate to blog about just a few days before Christmas. So, I thought I’d share my favorite sugary treat of the moment—peppermint crackle.
This stuff is delicious and quite addicting. (I may or may not have had to squeeze in an extra trip to the gym over the weekend for consuming WAY. TOO. MUCH. of this.) I’ve found most people top it with shredded coconut or sliced almonds, yet I love topping it with crushed peppermint. Yum! Anyway, enough babbling, onto the recipe:
Watch out! These candied cranberries are so addicting. Not only do they taste scrumptious, they look festive and are a …
