It’s raining here. We’ve got a leaking roof (OOF!) and there’s so much to get done in the next few weeks before we close out the year. I’ll keep this short! Here are my Intentions for the Week!
Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 49
I made a wreath from some of our redwood trees this week!
I also used my dehydrator to dry some oranges that were going bad.
I think I am going to use them in my gift wrapping.
This week I shared Espresso Vanilla Liqueur recipe
I also deep cleaned my kitchen! And it’s messy again!
Hello, magic makers! Are you in need of new Homemade Holiday Gift Ideas? I’ve got you covered!! After sharing recipes on Shutterbean for 14 years, these are my faves!
Tell your friends these walnuts are great on salads because we need the encouragement and reminders to balance out all of the cookies and stuff with greens!
I’m thinking they would be perfect in a beet salad.
I sure would be happy for a batch of granola bark. Perfect for breakfasts and afternoon snacks.
Your friends will be happy they have your almonds to put out on their New Year’s Eve cheese board!
A fun activity to do with kiddos!
My Intentions for the Week Calendar and the Currently 2022 Workbook (US only) can be found in my Etsy Shop as well as other prints, stickers & zines! If you’re international, you can buy my workbooks from my Blurb shop.
If you’re looking to gift something from my shop to a friend or loved one before Christmas, make sure to get your order in by December 15th! Thanks so much for supporting my small business. Be sure to follow @thehandwritingclub on Instagram.
My mom used to call strong coffee “jet fuel.” After tasting this batch of Espresso Vanilla Liqueur, I think this is pretty much that!
It’s basically cold brew coffee made with vodka (instead of water!) that’s flavored with vanilla, a stick of cinnamon, and some simple syrup to sweeten the deal.
How can you use the Espresso Vanilla Liqueur?
If you’re looking for a last-minute homemade gift, this one is good. You need 2 days to complete the task.
I made some for my coffee-loving friends this holiday season!

I put together a fun giveaway of some of my favorite things! on my @shutterbean Instagram account! I love reading the comments! I am happy to see other people contributing to magic-making this season.
