Good Saturday morning! Oh, my! Is it really Saturday? The last Saturday before Christmas? We are sitting on the couch watching old Mickey Mouse Christmas cartoons and eating oatmeal. We probably need to shop, or straighten the house or something. But I kinda like this better.
I’m also going through my feed-reader to catch up on all the lovely Christmas ideas from my favorite blogs. You ready for some good links? You might even be able to do some of this stuff between now and Christmas. I know we’re going to try!
Printable Nativity Coloring Sheets & Puppet Theatre from Sarah Jane! {Remember the Christmas Goodnight book I posted about? The illustrator, Sarah Jane has some free printable coloring sheets AND this amazing printable puppet theatre to go along with the book. COOLEST. THING. EVER.
A Homemade Family Christmas from Passionate Homemaking {every year I want to do a total homemade Christmas, this post inspired me again!}
Make Your Own Magnetic Nativity Scene from When You Rise {I love nativity scenes and this is just awesome!}
Treasured Christmas Books from Passionate Homemaking {I love Christmas books and there are a few on here I don’t ahve!}
The Spirit of Giving: Project Cow from Silly Eagle Books {I’m trying to talk Lydia into copying this!}
Salt Dough Ornaments at TinkerLab {perfect for the above project–and our Truth in the Tinsel manger from Day 15!}
OK, and a few fun Truth in the Tinsel posts while we’re at it…
Mama Jenn’s Day 1-6 {I love their Mary!}
Rattles & Redheads’ Christmas Story {Look how great their manger scene is!}

I like seeing all the links to the ornaments–such fun. 🙂
If you can’t convince lydia to make a million salt dough cows, she can buy one from juliet. We still have a few leftover for my parents, but they don’t need all of them. Let me know. 🙂
