Winter is one of the most beautiful times of the year. It can be difficult decorating your house, apartment, or dorm especially if you are on a budget. I have gathered a list of a few decor ideas that you can make yourself so you won't have to break your bank!

1. Frosty Pinecones!

Get some pinecones from outside, if you live up north, or go to an art store, if you live down south. Gather some white paint, glue, white and silver glitter, and a paintbrush. Start by mixing together the paint and glue in a bowl then roll a pinecone in it. Then pour some glitter into another bowl and roll the pinecone around in there and let sit to dry. After you decorate a bunch of pinecones and they dry, put them in a bowl and they will be a great centerpiece for your table or decoration on your coffee table.

2. Mason Jar snow globes.

Making these snow globes would look beautiful sitting on your nightstand or sitting around your TV stand. They would also be a great gift to give your friends or any family members and they could use it as decorations.

3. Winter fairy lights.

This is so simple and easily enhances any room. Get normal twinkly lights, little clothespins, and green fabric. Simply cut the fabric in the shape of trees, glue them onto clothes pins and clip those on the fairy lights. That's it! So simple and so cute.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now.

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked.

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
