It's funny how as you get older, your attention shifts more and more towards home decor over the holidays. Call it a rite of passage, but I'm constantly finding myself gravitating towards cute decorations and entertaining necessities more than anything else this time of year. From gilded cocktail accessories and pops of plaid, to festive mugs and ornaments, I'm in it deep. So here's a look at some of the goodies I'm lusting over from Target � and believe me, it's a long list! I've already made those adorable fox wine accessories mine, but there's still eight glorious items to go... You know, in case Santa reads my blog or something.

Martini Shaker | Fox Wine Accessories | Plaid Tree Skirt | Stag Head | Serving Tray | Beer Mugs | Bar Cart | Ornaments | Coffee Press

{Homemade Holiday} Monogram Mug DIY

 photo GoldMonogramMugDIY_zps423f00ca.jpg
This week's holiday gift idea was inspired by Anthropologie's golden monogram mugs � aka, the greatest things ever. This DIY is perfect as a last minute hostess gift, stocking stuffer or general add-on, and so long as you have 40 minutes and a Sharpie, you've got this.

Using a metallic gold, oil-based Sharpie, start by drawing a letter on the front of a white mug (mine came from the dollar store).  photo MonogramMugDIY_zps71a75df1.jpg
From there, draw a line around the base of the cup and colour in the handle. Once that's done, bake that bad boy for 30 minutes at 350 degrees � it's as easy as that. photo homemadegiftideamonogrammugcopy_zps49ee090b.jpg
A lovely tea (like this Almond Truffle variety from Sloane Tea Company) or a nice coffee blend later, and you've got yourself a thoughtful holiday gift for the caffeine lover in your life.  photo IMG_9596_zpse0c46bf9.jpg
