I also wanted to introduce one of our newest blog sponsors, Richella from Imparting Grace!
I actually know Richella not just from blogging but in “real life” too. She is a family friend that lived next door to my Aunt and Uncle for years. She and her husband have three sons, all close in age to my cousins. So, it is nice to be able to introduce you to a friend. Richella and her family live in a beautiful home, that you can read about here. Here is a photo of her home decorated for Christmas last year. If you click on it it will bring you to her Christmas Tour.
Richella’s blog is full of tips and inspiration. She hosts a weekly party called Grace at Home . She also recently started a new weekly series called Grace for Dinner that focuses on quick and easy dinner recipes. I think this is such a great concept and she features not only recipes of her own but from other bloggers as well. (I am planning on trying this recipe from one of her guest posters!) Head on over to Imparting Grace and say hello!
I hope you all are having a wonderful Thanksgiving week!
Jennifer,
The joy and deer cut outs that you put on your jar with chocolate chips, did you tape or glue them on?? And what size did you use.
Thanks!!

I actually used a piece of chocolate brown thread and tied them around the neck of the mason jar so they kind of nicely "dangled" from the jars. I used the small size for that.
Have a lovely Thanksgiving!
Jennifer, the Christmas cut-outs are beautiful on your packages! Such a brilliant idea!
Did you make the button garland that's wrapped around your gifts and tree or did you purchase it? Thank you!
It is from Ballard Design. I got it last year. I used it on my tree and also on a smaller tree and for lots of wrapping and still have some left over! It was well worth the money!
Your tree is stunning Jennifer and those presents are beautifully wrapped. Prettiest packages I've ever seen! Love the buttons, lace and the cutouts add such a festive touch. I'm off to visit Imparting Grace.
Gorgeous wrapping with the perfect Dear Lillie touch! Thank you for offering the new cutouts in your shop. Where did you purchase the beautiful wrapping paper?
Thanks! I got the script wrapping paper at Ballard Designs last year. It was rather expensive but I used it to wrap "faux" presents so I was able to use it last year and again this year and hopefully years to come (I just changed out the ribbon and accents). It it a really nice thick paper and comes with three rolls. The music note paper is from IKEA. I got it a few weeks ago. It was very cheap! I think like $1.99 a roll, maybe? It's pretty thin but still a nice paper. I wrapped real gifts with that though that will be opened this year. I don't think it would hold up for years on end. =)
Thanks Jenni 🙂 I have always wanted to do "faux" presents. And you just inspired me. Finger crossed I can find the paper. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know. Have a blessed day.
Hope your beautiful little ones are feeling better.
It is so versatile but my favorite is the "joy" against the pine wreath.
your tree is beautiful…and i am assuming since it is up so early it is artificial???? it is so hard to tell because it looks real! if it is artificial where on earth did you get it because i think it is the most beautiful "fake" tree i have ever seen!!!!
Thank you! Indeed it is artificial. I broke down last year and we got it at Home Depot.
Your house and all the decorations are beyond beautiful…!I love coming to your blog, always so inspiring. Happy Thanksgiving, thanks for sharing your ideas!
Oh no! You're sold out of the Joy medium cutouts! Any chance you'll have more very soon?
Your tree is beautiful! The wrapped packages are stuning. Can't stop looking at them.
Pam
Thanks, Pam! We should have all of the sizes restocked at the beginning of next week once we get more of the boxes that they ship in (they should be here Monday).
Thank you Jennifer! You've just made my day! Happy Thanksgiving!
so beautiful, love the cut outs
Love the garland on your mantel!! Is it real or artificial?
Most of the garland in our home is real but on the mantel it's artificial. I got it about four years ago at a store called Savvy in Williamsburg.
Absolutely Love the cutouts!!! I am in awe of your lovely wrapping talents as well! Your tree is simply gorgeous…swoon!!! Happy Thanksgiving!
So lovely "winterwarm" athmosphere and beautiful pictures.
Greetings and hugs from Finland by SisustEllen decortaing blogger♥
Oh my goodness… So pretty! I actually just bought the same wrapping paper to cover books in my bookshelf but only used one roll. So, I'm so excited to see what you've done with it! I can't wait to purchase some cutouts! Happy Thanksgiving!
Jenni, it's such an honor to be featured here! Thank you so much. When I count my blessings, you'd better believe that all the Hubbard family is on the list! Living next door to your aunt and uncle was one of the greatest privileges I've ever known. Lauren used to laugh and call Patty and me Ethel and Lucy! 🙂
Thank you for introducing me to your readers. Happy Thanksgiving!
Love these! Especially the drummer boy – I've always loved the drummer boy!
I have featured your tree on my latest post of my favorite "pins" of the week, I hope you don't mind, I love it!! http://glamorousbride.blogspot.com/2012/11/fab-pins-of-week_22.html
Thanks so much!
Loving that deer on the mason jar! Great job!
Hi! can i ask how you did the button ribbon? or was it purchased?
Hi! It is from Ballard Designs, but it was quite a few years back!
