Friday Finds, Elf Style: Candy Cane Forest

Elf DVDThe other night, the Ogre and I sipped on Irish coffees, decorated the Christmas tree and watched Elf. We didn't eat a whole roll of Tollhouse cookie dough as fast as we could, but we did snuggle during the end of the movie. It's so nice to have found a soulmate that shares my affinity for elf culture.

Inspired by Buddy's adventure from the North Pole to New York, I passed through the seven levels of the Candy Cane Forest during my weekly walk around the handmade hills of Etsy. I got a little dizzy in the Sea of Swirly Twirly Gum Drops, but emerged triumphantly with these adorable creations. Don't be a cotton-headed ninny-muggins - go take a closer look!

  7. The movie was adorable and very funny, a true romantic comedy. My only complaint is that it propelled the word "Ginormous" into main stream English and now everybody is calling anything that's overly large "ginormous". Wonder what will happen to the 2 perfectly good and correct words of gigantic and enormous ? Guess they'll become lost to the English language, never to be used again.
    Love all the pretty red and white candy cane striped items, so Christmasy and as fresh as a peppermint stick.

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over! Congratulations to the randomly chosen 108th commenter, Andalene! Accessorize an outfit and rejuvenate your spirit at the same time! Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter. The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
