Somewhere in between the glitter and publishing this free eBook, I think I lost my mind…

Not, like, in creative, carefree, I’m-going-to-take-the-world-by-storm way… but the SHE HAS REALLY LOST HER MIND way…

You see, I decided as I was putting pink and teal and lime green ornaments on our Muppet Tree,

Kermit the frog
That the world of Christmas was filled with all things girlie… lights and bows and polk-dots and shimmery goodness…

And the boys?  They’re just left to deal with the Christmas Crazies that inhabit our bodies during the month of December.

And I felt so bad for them… So flippin’ bad…

So bad, indeed that I decided to spruce up this old, tired Christmas wreath…

And let me tell you what’s really priceless…

Tie on the wreath

Watching your too-cool-for-school thirteen year old laugh until he cries…

And if my being certifiably nuts is what it takes to see this smile…

Then watch out, my bleeps…

Christmas Wreath

This is just the beginning…

P.S. The crazy polk-dotted tie fabric is from Amy Butler… it’s called Sunspots in Mint.

    1. Ha! I LOVE the Muppets!!! Have you seen OK Go’s rendition of the theme song??? It’s fantastic!

    1. Thank you, Cassie! I sneaked the polka-dots in anyway! Oh, you should have seen us… Morgan was doubled over! It was the best…

  1. Well, as much as I love your muppet tree, (What is it about the muppets that seems so Christmassy?) The tie on the wreath is pretty hilarious! But it works!

  2. So is there something wrong with me or have I lost touch with what 13 year old boys think (hope not cuz mine is 13!) but I like that tie. I think it’s pretty cool.

    1. I mean it! Morgan was so funny when he saw it! I thought I was going to have to get him a paper bag to keep him from hyperventilating!

      Thanks, Beth!

    1. Oh, and I’ve only scratched the surface!

      Thank you so much, Ann! It’s so nice to be appreciated for my craziness…

  3. Every house needs a muppet tree and a tied up with a tie wreath!
    Have a very merry Christmas!
