Charlotte's Writing Nook

Right now we're in the middle of tearing up the tile in our entry way, bathroom, kitchen and dining room. The foundation under the tile was not put down correctly. We have had to replace some of the wood underneath  because of water damage. Our shoe cubbies are on top the table, the island is by the fireplace, and the chairs are in the living room. We've already got the wood cut and sanded, so all we need is to lay it down and whitewash it. We already have a few pieces of wood stapled, but you never know what kind of surprises lay ahead. We 're staying partly at my grandparents house while they're gone in Seattle. It's a mess here at the Knobloch Crew household. We're making it slow and steady thourgh the holidays and we hope you are too! Good evening, Charlotte and family

Thank you to all those people who check my blog. I would also like to give a warm thank you to my customers as well.  Whether you give or receive presents, remember to be grateful -  even for a pair of socks!

Christmas is coming, oh yes it is! To get into the holiday season, here are a few diy ideas: Bake cookies. Ask your kid what their favorite kind of cookie is, then bake that kind of cookie. On Christmas day, there will be a plate of of their favorite cookies under the tree. What a yummy way to spread Christmas cheer! If you find your kid -( or you!)- complaining while doing chores encourage them to start singing a Christmas carol. If you're not a big singer then play some holiday music on your phone. Decorate your house. Take out a pad of paper and mark off the days till Christmas, make a Christmas banner, and hang up lights. Enjoy these activities!

Sunday night I got my ears pierced! I will be able to change earrings on Christmas day! Today I had a sewing spree and decided to s ew a bunch of sachets for my business. I've had quite a few orders lately, so thank you to those that ordered! Tonight we shopped with my grandpa for Christmas presents for poor kids. You can help too by finding a local food pantry, church, or homeless shelter and donating food and toys! I've been reading a lot of sewing books, and I think I'll add some more products to Petite Craft Shop! We're hoping to sleep under the Christmas tree tonight - we'll see how it goes!  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ my ''home''  news is just some things that's happening in my life.
