Holiday parties have begun and with that comes the need for hostess gift ideas. My motto this year is wrap pretty much anything with these wire battery powered lights and you’re good… Plants, lanterns, wrapped presents, wreaths, a box of oreos… Yesterday I picked up this fun cactus and wrapped the pot with some canvas cloth (you could totally use paper instead), ribbon, and the lights.

You could do this with so many plants. Here’s an example of how I’m filling lanterns with the same string lights. Bonus, when I’m walking to the party it’ll even act as a lantern lighting up my path. Kidding, kind of.

More ideas, all of these can be found at Terrain.

PS: If you have someone on your list who is not nearby and you still want to send something really special consider sending one of these trees with some of these. I sent a few to some friends on my list!

Happy Sunday! Just wanted to give you all the heads up about Target’s Cyber Monday offer that begins (and ends) tomorrow on their website only – Buy One, Get One 60% off clothing, shoes, and accessories for the whole family. AWESOME deal. I regularly find things for myself there that I love, like these skinny lounge pants, but I get a lot of my kids’ things there, too. They both recently picked out these matching santa pj’s, so cute!

We went to Target today before going to get our Christmas tree and I actually saw 2 different people who were shopping wearing this cardigan sweater! I’ll take that as a good sign. Here are a few more cute sweaters to pick up during the sale.
