Double Duty!

I was browsing the Mypapershop site this evening, mainly through the Easter items, and realized that many of the patterns that are available are perfect for Easter AND Mother’s Day!  What a great idea!  Items that can carry through more than one event are always well-worth the money invested.  Check out the complete line of dinner and party ware in the Blooming Spring Tulips (my absolute favorite) and the Spring Petals line.  The bunnies and eggs are adorable, but when you can carry over party supplies from one holiday or celebration to the next, then you are talking about a wise investment!

Carnival!

It is a celebration that spans the globe, and it lasts for weeks on end.  Carnival begins twelve days after Christmas on January 6th (also known as Epiphany), and Carnival goes until 46 days before Easter.  During this time, celebrants participate in parades, parties, contests, philanthropic events, galas and balls.  Each event has a theme, from crowning a king or queen to celebrating regional foods, even highlighting customs and traits specific to a country or area.  Carnival is especially prominent in Europe and Latin America, as well as parts of the Carribbean.  The United States also has several locations that become highly involved in Carnival, or at least certain parts of it.

Sending Cards For The Holidays

I just finished my Christmas cards this past weekend.  Sending out cards to friends and family this time of year is important to me; it is a part of my tradition to remember people I care about and don’t get to see or talk to very often. Plus, what a great gift - mail that isn’t a bill or “junk”!  So, I try to make each card and letter I send out at this time of year a little gift all on its own - something special.
