God Bless us Everyone!

These silly snowbaby ornies are finished just in the nick of time to adorn some packages that are soon to be delivered by Santa! Thought I'd snap a quick pic of them first! They were alot of fun and oh so easy to make! But I now have glitter just about everywhere though (yep, there too!) , heehee!

I REALLY JUST WANTED TO WISH YOU ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Recycling as gifts?

Now this was a fun, very inexpensive project!
Using tin cans as little "pails" to hold your holiday gifts. You could even hang them on a tree or on the mantle!

I found this project in a craft magazine & thought I'd share it with you. I think it is a marvelous way to recycle and save alot of $ at the same time...
I simply flattened a soup can a bit just at the top (not too much or it won't stand by itself) sanded lightly, painted, embellished and varnished. Make two holes with an awl on either side for the wire handles. Fill with raffia and some small gifts or ornies!

Shoes blues

And here she sits, waiting patiently for her antique high button shoes. Ordered off of Ebay and should be here soon!
