Time Travel Thursday #76 & Talented Time Travelers #75

"We all have our time machines. Some take us back, they're called memories.

Some take us forward, they're called dreams."

~Jeremy Irons~

Welcome to the 76th Time Travel Thursday linky party at The Brambleberry Cottage!

Are you ready to share your fondest memories, grandest dreams,

and most creative projects? Great!

Well, I promised I would give you a double feature this week, and

I aim to deliver!  So let's revisit some of our talented time travelers

from the last two weeks.

Sometimes you have to play around a bit to

get just the look you want from your decorations.

Susan @ Compulsive in Texas had a good thing goin' with her handmade

sign but decided to keep tweaking her mantelscape...until

it was "screaming Christmas"!

Kirsty @ Coral and Coast decorated her lovely holiday table with a

"nod to nautical."  Even her dog, Harley, made a contribution—the faux

driftwood in the center—to this pretty tablescape.

When I visited BJ @ Sweet Nothings, I was a bit taken back by her serene

 silver and white decorations.  Now there wasn't a thing wrong with

them, mind you.  They were absolutely gorgeous!  But I've come to know BJ

as a "colorful" person—in both her decorating and personality.

True to nature, she didn't disappoint.  Further into the post, I

discovered the pretty pops of color I've come to

expect from this sweet—and colorful—lady.

Seeing these festive, frosted Christmas lights made me smile. 

I hope they will bring the same response from you.   ; ) 

Want to know how to create this special effect? 

Visit Snowflakes and Dragonflies for the how-tos.

I dare say, there is nary a one of you who has never heard of 

Rice Krispie treats.  But have you EVER

seen them in such a fun shape?!

Trish @ Sweetology comes up with the absolute cutest

treats around!

Now that she's three-years-old, I'm on the lookout for simple craft ideas

to explore with my precious granddaughter when she visits.

This glittery snowflake—made by Kimberly @ Creating Home—is

something that will be fun to work on as we're

creating memories for a lifetime.

Are you still scrambling for a few last minute gifts?  Want a

decorative item that you can make and use beyond Christmas?

This super simple project from Andrea @ The Cottage Market

 might just be your answer.

Having been a serious recycler for many, many years, I'm always

looking for ways to reuse rather than dispose of.

But I must admit, I would never have thought to reuse the material that

Myric @ Petites Passions used to create this

sweet little tree.

Did you ever participate in a sleepover when you were younger? 

Well, Delightful Deets shared snippets from a Snugglerama—a grownup version—that 

made me want to gather a bunch of my gal pals and relive my youth.

Maybe I should just have my own Snugglerama right here at

The Brambleberry Cottage next summer...and invite all of you. 

Watcha think?   ; )

OK, show us your craftiness for this week!
