Photo courtesy of IKEA Materials: HEMNES and IKEA Fabric Description: I have a white HEMNES Chest of drawers that I was bored with. I bought some Ikea fabric, some Spray Mount Glue, AND I GOT NEW FURNITURE! The fabrics I chose were ANNAMOA blue, ANNAMOA green and LILLIVI. About 28cm of each. It is very easy, clean the surface

Are you doing any baking this holiday season? I’m dying to get in my kitchen and bake a million cookies and truffles and maybe even some peppermint bark, too!
The cookie recipes I’ve included in today’s Recipe Radar are all cookies that I plan to bake this weekend. I made all of my cookie decisions based on cookies that my mom made every year. How do you choose what cookies to make? Do you like to try new recipes or do you stick to your traditional faves?
Recipes:
Sugar Cookies
Molasses Crinkles
Thumbprints
Dark Chocolate Truffles
Candy Canes
Oatmeal Scotchies

I don’t know about you, but I keep my change in a hideous plastic container that does nothing for my decor. It’s kind of embarrassing now that I think about it, because it has a yellow and brown sticker on the outside.
So, anyway, I’ve been thinking for a while now that maybe a fun piggy bank would be better for my home. Gotta love something that’s extremely functional and stylish right? I’ve been drooling over that blue Areaware piggy bank for forever now, so I had to include it. But I think the other five I found are pretty fab, don’t you? (Especially that glitter one that is probably for a little girls room but I just don’t care!)
Oh, and one of these six different piggy banks is technically not a piggy bank, but that’s ok. Can you spot which one!
Do you have a piggy bank or do you keep your change in an ugly jar like me?
[piggy banks: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.]

Last week, when I talked about six different Christmas trees, I promised something for those who don’t celebrate Christmas. I know I’m a few days behind, but here I am with six different menorahs!
Do you celebrate Hanukkah? If so, what type of menorah do you celebrate with? Do you prefer a more traditional menorah, or would you go for some of the more modern ones, like the first one in the second row above? (It’s made of concrete!)
The menorahs above, from L to R: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6
