stashing thru the snow!

Soooo unless you've been hiding under a rock lately (how cozy can that be actually???) you know that mustaches are EVERYWHERE!! They are quite the rage, and while I don't understand what made them oh-so-popular....I lovelovelove them!

So I thought I'd incorporate this awesome trend into my annual Christmas cards.

Side note--I make my Christmas cards every year. I actually look forward to making them every December and love coming up with new and funny ideas. I always include a cute picture of me and Yankee (until I have kids...people are getting a picture of me and my dog. Deal with it.)

So here are my amaze-balls Mustache cards! I freaking LOVE the way the turned out and have gotten so many compliments on them.

And wouldn't you know it? Thanks to my Silouette machine, these bad boys were super easy to make!

the inside of the card!

Hope you and your family have stashed thru the snow this year!! We haven't gotten much of the white stuff (if any) here in Indy......yet.

Merry Christmas!

NOEL signs. they're back!

Remember last year how I totally stuck-it-to-the-man (aka Pottery Barn) and did a knock-off of their Noel Sign? You should. If not, read it here.

Because these were so amazingly popular last year, I've already started on stocking up for this Christmas season!

Seriously, these make the best Christmas decorations ever! (oh and a fab gift for anyone who loves Christmas!!!!)

Gold.

Silver

These bad boys are 19 inches tall and 16 inches across. I'm selling them on The Hicks Girl Etsy site, or just email me at kelby@hicksgirls.com if you're interested.

P.S. If you want a specific color, let me know. I love custom orders!!!

take that Pottery Barn!

Don't get me wrong. I love me some Pottery Barn. I really do. But c'mon. They were selling a NOEL sign for $150.00. Yeah. You heard me right. 150 bones. dollars. whatever. That's ridiculous.

Even more ridiculous.....

They are COMPLETELY sold out online. You know what that means, right? People were actually buying the sign for $150. A lot of people. So many people.

I'm appalled.

But also inspired. So my friend Melissa and I decided to make our own. And viola!!! Look how awesome it turned out!!!

best part--we did it for under $10.

Thank you Hob Lob for having these awesome wooden letters. Thank you Gorilla Glue for be oh-so-sturdy. Thank you Martha Stewart for your glitter. Thank you Pottery Barn for your outrageous prices--that will be extremely profitable for me!

And thank you Father Christmas for your season! :)

sorry for the quality of pictures. I cannot find my camera cord, so I have been forced to resort to my iPhone has my sole picture taking device. :)
