Hi friends! I am finally coming back to these squa Hi friends! I am finally coming back to these squares after some much needed time away. After Christmas, I take time off to recover from the holidays, to embark on MANY home organization projects, and spend time with my kids before they head back to school. We are back to our empty nesting again, so I am settling back into our new normal. On Thursday, I will be sharing a new post with lots of ideas of how to transition your decor from Christmas to winter. This is a tiny sneak peek of some simple ways to decorate for winter. Watch out for some upcoming stories about some of my organization projects around here. Happy New Year!!

My Favorite DIY Homemade Hostess Gift Ideas

Not only are these great homemade hostess gift ideas, but they are also great options for gifting the folks that help us regularly during the year. For example, I enjoy giving something special to my hairdresser, mailman, trash crew, our kid’s favorite teachers, sweet neighbors, etc.

This is one of my DIY homemade hostess gift ideas that I shared earlier this year that is filled with my Homemade House Seasoning. You can find the recipe HERE. This gift lasts all year long!
