So...

I kinda lost my blogging momentum and I'm thinking I might do an advent calendar thing inbetween my ordinary posts to get my inspiration back. There would be a new post every day until Christmas. They would have a separate tag and a nice holiday-ish header or something.

I'd mix up stuff like simple candy recipies, Christmas cards to make and some to download, lists (best Christmas movies, gift tips for the panic stricken) and other crafts and recipies.

The stuff would be fairly simple. Things you'd actually would be able to do while everything else is going on.

Now, is this a nice idea or just annoying?
Also, I'd like to go out with a bang and "give" something on Chrtistmas Eve/Day (we celebrate on Christmas Eve here in Sweden), but I'm stumped. Ideas?

All right. Keep kool, glitterz!

All right, I'm doing it!
I've been thinking of stuff and it's way (WAY!) harder to come up with things for 25 days in a row than I thought. I need seven more right now.

On the other hand, it totally makes me more creative. If I'm putting it on the blog "cause it soooo simple you can do it inbetween everything else" I better put my tinsel where my mouth is and fricking do it! :)

I think it sounds great!

I think you should also post your blog link in this thread so that we can all follow you, too!

I love Glitter pep talks! :)
Here's the adress: http://klaradetroit.com/blogg/?tag=advent

Oh, and since I'm swedish I might not be all there with the lingo, so please do tell me if there's something weird in the conversions in the recipies or if I call stuff by the wrong name or if there are things that just doesn't make sense and stuff like that. Either here or in a comment on the blog.

Sounds like a fun idea. I like your blog and I see you're from Sweden as well. How's the weather up there in Stockholm? We recently had our first blizzard here in Malmo. The snow came way to early this year :(

hijacking to say Stockholm is SO COLD! Windy with lots of snow and ice. But it's also oh-so-pretty with all the snow, clear sky, and the light right now =)

And klaradetroit, I will be following your advent calendar, think it's a great idea =)

So, tomorrow the advent calendar will launch big time. Woot, woot! I'm actually kinda nervous now. Eek! :)

The posts will be published at midnight GMT+1, cause that's how we swedish people roll. Or set our watches at least. :)

Also, if there is anything you'd like to see more of (recipes, crafts, lists) just give me a shout. I still have a few days without anything planned for yet.
