How to Repurpose your Rife Paper Co. Calendar

 


I have been holding on to my 2017 Rifle Paper Co. Calendar forever, hoping to find some time to do something fun with it. The gorgeous designs were just too lovely to throw away. Well, today was the day! It really was a quick and easy project, and I was thrilled to find multiple ways to repurpose the floral pages. Watch my video below for the details, and let me know in the comments if you decide to go for it!



Loving how my little DIY projects turned out! Make sure you save your calendars, and if you’ve already thrown yours away, you’ve got a fun project for next year!




Last Minute Thanksgiving Decor Tour

Ok, so I know I should be showing you my Christmas home decor tour right now, but let's be honest, I barely got this done before my guests arrived! It’s been almost impossible this past year to keep up with decorating my home for the holidays with so much time being spent at the store. Is it just me, or did this year go by so quickly? Even though my home decor has been lacking, I have thoroughly enjoyed decorating my sweet customers' homes and the shop with new finds! I was only able to do a little decor the night before Thanksgiving, and sadly I did not decorate to the scale I would have liked. And, I did not have time to decorate my mantle as I normally would have. I chose to concentrate instead on the entry way, dining table, and buffet areas. The dining table was my favorite! I layered silks, cotton, berries, pinecones and fresh flowers down the center of the table with tons of votives. Candlelight makes every gathering a little more special...when I can remember to light them! The icing on the cake was the vintage amber glass turkey my mother gave me years ago when I hosted my first Thanksgiving at our home in Tyler, and my collection of vintage Thanksgiving postcards. Everyone enjoyed the reading the postcards and marveled at the dates they were sent! We were blessed to host both families at our home and I really wanted things to be special. I wish I could enjoy the colors and scents of fall a little longer, but it's on to Christmas we go in a flash lol! I thought I would share a few photos before I transition to Christmas decor. Hopefully, I will be decorating sooner than the night before!











Decorating with Boxwood Wreaths


Our preserved boxwood wreaths are one of my favorite decor items we carry in our shop. They are a very versatile accent piece that can be used to add color and dimension....And, they smell amazing! Our customers are always looking for fun and different ways to use and display them in their homes, so I decided to put together some inspiration from the wonderful world of Pinterest.

You can purchase both sizes of our Preserved Boxwood Wreaths here:
