I have so many blog friends who have written books the last few years and another of my longtime blog friends is Jen Rizzo, who lives in the Chicago area.  I think we started blogging the same year and she’s always been out there, doing beautiful things and sharing them with the blogosphere.  She’s an artist and designer and loves vintage style decorating. She’s also been featured in Country Living, Romantic Homes and Somerset Living and now has written her own book, all about creating beautiful Christmas handmade Christmas decorations.

If you love making handmade Christmas crafts, you’ll love Jen’s book, packed full of inspiration and creative ideas for adding hand crafted goodness to your Christmas décor.  There’s even a CD included for printable images.

From outdoor décor, to the front door and beyond, the chapters have easy to follow instructions on creating those memories for merry-making and craft ideas.

All the instructions and supplies list is there to guide you through the process of making your own memories.  Great ideas to use with your kids too.

So, I wanted to introduce you to this creative blogger, Jen and her beautiful new book, Creatively Christmas.  Photographed beautifully, you’ll enjoy looking through all the projects and reading Jen’s thoughts and memories on her own Christmas growing up.

You can find Creatively Christmas on Amazon, in case you’d like to grab a copy for yourself.

    Rhoda…Jen is a real talent and I so enjoyed looking at all the Christmas crafts she has shown us in her book! She also features many of the awesome home here in the Chicago area with their unique Christmas styles. I had the pleasure of meeting her a few weeks ago. She is a real talent. Thank you for spreading the word about my neighbor!
