We are opening up the Christmas season here at My Wee Abode. Tuesday Turn About #125 Little Christmas is featuring some fun seasonal DIYs!
TUESDAY TURN ABOUT #124 LITTLE CHRISTMAS
If you want some last minute fall or Thanksgiving ideas, check out last week’s party!
Welcome to the party! Are you ready for a little-bit-of-Christmas?
I sure am!
My week in Pennsylvania was AMAZING, and I can’t wait to share it on the blog this week!
When I got home, I hit the ground running with catching up at my day job, surprise family events, and finishing up some baby blankets for Jellybean #5, scheduled to arrive on December 3. (Between you and me, I’m bettin’ the scheduled c-section will happen earlier!)
Enough about me… let’s get this party started!
And don’t forget…
Oh, and as promised… our ‘tips’ have returned!

Weekly Household Tip
Here’s a candle ‘grooming’ tip for you. When you want to extinguish a candle, don’t blow out the flame… use a snuffer. When you blow on a wick, it can sometimes move the wick from the center of the candle, creating an uneven burn. Using a snuffer will help your wax last longer.
Weekly Blogging Tip
Have you heard the exciting Instagram news?!!!
You can now redirect your followers from your Instagram stories directly to your blog! Yep! The “10K follower rule” no longer applies! Can you say, “Woo hooooo!”?
When creating a story, simply click on the sticker icon at the top, and you will see the link button. Add it to your story, along with the link to your blog! Voila!

Oh my goodness, I feel like I totally missed fall with moving, and here we are at Christmas! I literally just got my pansies planted today, just one of the many little (and BIG) things I’m thankful for recently. Thank you for hosting, Julie.
