More advent treats revealed

We almost had a fight over a piece of chocolate last week???!!! 
Remember, I got my youngest son his Lego advent and big brother thought the chocolate advent that I'm using was JUST for him NOT for the whole family to take turns.  Woa...trouble. lol
I'm so glad I did this for lil guy.  Teenagers may not act/speak like they want to be your precious baby...but they do. lol  They want their own stuff to continue to be special. 
Let's see some advent treasures that might be worth fighting for but thank goodness no girls here to scrap me for them:

beautiful fabric and trim box had a lil snowflake ornament inside.  I forgot to take photo of it.
Ya'll, I almost went Postal on my family when we were setting this whole advent tree up and my coffee spilled onto this...the MOST precious fret work box of them all!!  The scene takes up the whole inside and is still intact but reindeer took a dunk into coffee.  Why....and why can't I remain calm when these things happen?  lol
Is this the sweetest box ever...why couldn't I think to stamp the inside of any of my boxes?  Great job, Cami @ Creating My Self Creatively

she strung Merry Christmas on string and it is awesome.  Would make a great package tie on or bracelet or garland.

More later...sorry about no credit boxes, son helped unpack my set. :S

Advent 1st week

I am loving my lil matchbox tree
I've got my tree on the side table in the living room for now.
No time for any fanfare this season.
 
I've gotten a great lil tile with my fav word...Joy!
love the pink too.
Look at this dear ol Saint Nick box..great tile pin.
this is box #2, Anne at A Shabby Life created this treasure!!
A festive tag in this, box #3.  Love the modern coloring of her box and the artistry that went into the tag.

Will post more asap. 
Blogging has become more difficult with the move and computer placement in our new home and having to Picasa every picture to even share it.  I'm trying to share!!
