Free Thanksgiving & Christmas Printables from Lauren McKinsey

Oh man guys.  I am behind again, sharing these awesome freebies from Lauren McKinsey.  I've been down all week sick.  You know the night-time (and day-time) sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, fever, so you can't rest kind of sick?  Yes, I have that.  So, today, I'm posting TWO freebies!



 

I'm so excited about the new "Give Thanks" printable collection by Lauren McKinsey.  Right now, you can click the link here (or the photo above) to download some darling circle tags for FREE!  Isn't the owl just the cutest?





















And, you can also get the "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" Hershey Kiss labels free!  I just adore that Santa.  So cute! Click here to download it free!  And view the entire collection coming Monday to www.laurenmckinsey.com
