I know, I know…Christmas is over. I also know there are still a few out there who haven’t gotten around to sending their holiday greetings out. Well, lucky you! The geniuses over at Plaid Creative released their 2010 version of their Merry Newsinator, a free holiday newsletter generator and it’s like holiday mad libs for adults! All you do is answer a few fun questions, fill in the blanks and voila…your own custom newsletter! It then gives you the option to email, print, facebook or tweet it! Take a look at my very own newsletter and then head over to their site to generate yours!

No party is complete without these ‘stache straws! Esther got this great idea from her go-to craft book, “Paper + Craft” from New York-based Paper + Cup Design and they were such a hit at her holiday party that we couldn’t wait to share some pictures! And look! Even Santa’s getting in on the act!

Just got a taste of Sugar Fix’s chocolate peppermint cupcake and I’m in holiday heaven! The moistest cupcake I’ve ever eaten, with just the perfect amount of peppermint! Stop by their bakery in Old Pasadena and pick up a dozen (or two!)

Stella McCartney is one of our favorite designers so when we heard she was developing her own kids’ line, we were so excited to see what her genius fashion mind would cook up. Even though it’s only available through her stores, we still can’t help sharing a few of our favorite pieces.

Congrats and a job well done to my fellow Plum partner, Esther, and our buddies Jonathan, Mari, Jen, Steph, Jason, Brady, Eucen and the entire team who just ran 195 miles from the Valley of Fire to Las Vegas in a 24 hour period!

So a piece of white bread may not be the first thought that comes into your head when thinking “art project”, but don’t count it out so quickly! Came across this neat kitchen craft activity where kids can use colored milk to creatively express themselves on toast. Check out Sunday Hotpants, a New Zealand mom’s blog, for all the details.
