I found a roll of undeveloped film and had NO idea what was on it. It made me miss the days before digital cameras and the excitement of waiting for your film to get developed after you finished a roll. Turns out it is some photos from years ago at Jazz Fest.

I love to see how people organize their books. Bookshelves can be so beautiful. Some favorites are below and you can see more in my gallery on Flickr. I also added one of my photos in the mix this week. Enjoy and happy Flickr Friday!

While cleaning up and packing I found a 1982 PRINT Magazine. I think it was one of my parents at some point.
I made some gift bags that match my holiday greeting cards! I gave them to my mom and she is using them for all of her gifts this year. See the matching cards and DIY directions here.
I have been working on a gift guide over on Pinterest!

I love making cards for the holidays instead of buying them. A very simple one to make is the green Christmas tree card shown below.
Materials:
1 sheet white cardstock
1 sheet light green cardstock
1 sheet dark green cardstock
Ruler
Exacto Knife (scissors work if you do not want perfect edges)
Glue Stick
Directions:
1- Cut white card stock to 8 x 5.5″ and fold in half so that the card is 4 x 5.5
2- Cut 3 strips of dark green paper (3.25″, 2″ and 1″)
3- Cut 3 strips of light green paper (2.5″, 1.5″ and .5″)
4- Glue the green strips to your white card
5- Personalize your card with a message on the inside and you are done!
This size card fits into a standard A-2 envelope.
If you don’t have time to make cards yourself I just updated my Etsy shop with lots of them. Check them out!

All the leaves were hand-crafted out of paper. I think I am going to switch it up between the 2 designs because I love them both!
My favorite Etsy shop this week is Homespun Handmaiden. Her shop is full of cozy Crochet Fingerless Gloves, Baby Booties, and Mug Cozies. I love fingerless gloves! I bought her Oatmeal colored ones on Friday and can’t wait to get them!
