Wrapping Up November

Happy December, friends!  It’s the most wonderful time of the year … or at least I hope that’s how you’re feeling this holiday season.  I know it can be a hard time too but I’m hoping that Christmas cheer will find you all in some sweet way.  I’m excited about the month ahead and all the chaos, fun, stress, and events that get packed into the next few weeks.  But before we get our jingle bells on, let’s take a quick look back at what went on at Dukes and Duchesses in November.  It was a full month with a few home updates, a bit of baking, and lots of gift ideas.  If you missed any posts, I’ve rounded up the top ten most popular posts of the month – the ones you read and shared the most {thank you!}.  Click on the links below for all the details of each project or idea and be sure to pin your favorites!

In November, I created a 2018 creative holiday guide, where I suggested creative ideas for everyone on your list {pin it now} …
