Wow, thank you for all of your wonderfully kind comments and encouragement. It means so much to me:) Happy Holiday's to all of you, my blogging friends!
Hope you have been enjoying your holiday festivities. I was waiting for a prompt from Shimelle for our Christmas Journal about stockings. I have a love affair with Christmas stockings. I simply adore them! I have always loved my felt and sequins Snoopy stocking from my childhood and still put it up each year. I also now have another favorite stocking, the sock I made at Silver Bella in Pam Garrison's class. It's made with vintage wallpaper and fantastic vintage trims. I just love it! So {Day 23} in my journal was just my cup of tea! I love the whole concept of Christmas stockings and Christmas Eve night~santa claus and little gifts~it's just all so whimsical and fun!! I especially love handmade stockings and the look of patchwork crazy quilting. It just brings a magical homemade feel to it all!
Today {Day 24} is about recording our Christmas Eve memories. We spent the day with my husbands dad, his sister and her family. We had a grand time and all the kids had a ball! I used a napkin from our meal as the background, because I loved the pattern. Now I will sit down to a cup of Christmas tea, and relax in childlike anticipation of Christmas morning!
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
