Wow, tomorrow is the first day of December and now is when it really feels like that festive time of year for me. It's probably because I celebrate my birthday on December 14th as well as Hanukkah and Christmas in December too. Hanukkah is early this year, starting tomorrow evening, and just today I am finally putting up holiday decorations.
I was inspired by this
garland I saw on
babble this morning. It's colors in blue, silver and white suit Hanukkah and it's designs are for Christmas too. I like these double duty decorations.
I picked up a few of these
dreidels from
Crate and Barrel last week. Mostly because I loved the flower design on the bottom, but also because they were so inexpensive. I seem to find a few new ones every year to add to my collection.
And of course you can't have a holiday without a DIY. I love this
fleece pom pom hanukkah garland I spied on
Creature Comforts this morning. Well I get better get off this computer and get busy decorating. I have lots of things to do today, including Hanukkah decorations for a few other events as well. I love this time of year. How about you?

Melissa, these ideas are adorable! It must be cool getting to learn and celebrate both religious traditions!
I love this time of year too, this year it seems to be disappearing at an alarming rate and I really wish I could slow it down so that I can relish each moment a little more.

Blue, silver, and white....my absolute favorite of all!
Love that garland!
Hugs to you during this busy , wonderful holiday season!
(I didn't know your birthday was so close to Christmas:)
Wow, I love both of those garlands! Blue and white lasts beyond the holidays for winter, too.
