Quick and Easy Table Decor

If you're looking for some Thanksgiving ideas, you're in the right place!

Welcome to Handmade From My Heart and the Cooking With Cricut "Giving Thanks" blog hop.  If you've come from visiting Mindy at Scrappy and Piggy, you're in the right place and moving right along.  If you're one of my regular visitors and would like to hop along with us click HERE and start at the beginning.

Today's hop is all about Thanksgiving decorations for your home and table.  I wanted to make something quick and easy since there's less than a week until Thanksgiving.  If you haven't thought about your table, just adding this simple napkin ring decoration, placecard and glass mat will help it look a  little more festive and it's easy peasy!

The place card is from the Thanksgiving cartridge and the napkin ring leaves and glass mat were cut from MS Seasonal Cake Art.  

To thank you for hopping along, I have a little blog candy.  All you have to do is leave a comment and a way for me to contact you.  A name will be selected by Random.org  and the winner will be announced on Wednesday's post.  Of course, if you're not a follower, I'd love to have you become one.

Now it's your turn.  Link up your Thanksgiving project at Cooking with Cricut.

Here are some guidelines to follow:

1.  Must follow the challenge topic and use one of the free files provided at CWC.

2.  Must be a NEW project for this challenge.  No back dated posts please.

3.  Must have a link back to the CWC post on your blog.

4.  Must link your project post through InLinkz and not just your blog.

5.  Must use your Cricut in some capacity.

6.  Must HAVE FUN!

7.  You may combine challenges . . . we love to pile it on too!

The Design Team will pick their three favorites and one lucky person will be chosen randomly to win of the prizes being offered at CWC.  There is also a prize just for leaving us a comment on the CWC blog.  One catch, those leaving comments MUST be a CWC follower.  Each prize winner will receive a $10 gift voucher-download from Paper Crafting World.  How cool is that?

Now head on over to Jenny's blog (last stop) at Crazy About Cricut and see what she's cooked up for you.

Enjoy the hop and Happy Thanksgiving!

Hugs and Happy Crafting,

Holiday Wishes

Don't miss it!!!

Tonight is the 3rd-Friday Blog Hop at Getting Cricky with K. Andrew.  It begins at 9:00 p.m. EST and goes through Saturday until midnight.  I hope you'll visit the DT members who are sharing their Holiday Wishes creations, each featuring stamps from K Andrew Designs.  Begin your hop at Getting Cricky and follow the links to get some holiday inspiration and blog candy along the way.

I designed this holiday card just to help get you in the spirit!!

The elf is a cut from the Jolly Holidays Cartridge and I welded the letters cut from Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake Art.  The stamps are from two of the K Andrew Designs sets, Amazing You and Splashtastic Summer. I added some doodling, Baker's Twine and punched snowflakes to complete the design.

Tomorrow is the Cooking with Cricut Thanksgiving blog hop. Join us as we share home decor and table decorations for your holiday.  I'll be sharing a few quick and easy last minute table decorations.  Even if you haven't thought about your place settings, you'll have time to do these super-easy accents.  You can start at CWC or, if you stop by here, you'll find links to help you on your way.  I'll be offering blog candy for anyone taking the time to leave a comment. 

Have a wonderful day.  I hope to see you tomorrow.

Hugs and Happy Crafting,

Larelyn
