The handmade holiday gifts just keep on comin'....LOVE IT! Above are some gifts that the kids made for us in school. Just the wrapping is gift enough. Can't wait to see what's inside:)
This pocket of Joy was given to me by the fabulous Cassondra (aka Citrus Faire). It's for holding all kinds of Christmas goodies. I'm going to fill it with the art work the kids have been bringing home. Thanks so much, dear Cassondra!
Bought this on etsy from Marmee Crafts for Lowell's new room:) Amazing work she does.
These neat fabric button necklaces are from The Magpie's Nest etsy shop.
The 12 Days of Christmas swap continues. I am continually amazed at the gifts that I am recieving from this fabulous group of artists. In case you are wondering, I am day 12...Christmas Day! Donna Layton had day 7. She made the joy piece above. Everything about it is absolutely stellar. She is a stickler for details. Amazing work, Donna!
Day 8 was by the hostess with the mostess Heather Bluhm. She sewed all these amazing fabrics and adorable image onto an apron. Brilliant and beautiful. Thanks, Heather!Of course Chloe had to model it:)
Christmas is really getting close now. Hope all of you that are traveling have safe journeys. My sister and her family fly in from San Diego tomorrow for two weeks. I can't wait!!!!
Happy Holidays!
Aww, kid gifts are the best. We got a cute picture frame which H insisted on opening for us. Its fun seeing Chloe modeling the apron. I had wanted to see them ON someone. I am glad you like it. They were such fun to make.
