Ornaments...


I am going to make more of these...
they turned out just as I had planned
and if you are a crafter you know sometimes
that doesn't always work out like that...lol~
Just thought I would share these ideas with you all....
Try making them....
the rag rose takes few mins to make but they are well
worth the effort as they are so vintage looking~and
it's only muslin!

These pink pine cones have ...


turned out so wonderful...
I am going crazy over this pink and white Christmas.... :)
I have pink fever now for sure!
When I was a child I loved the color purple...
but it has now taken a back seat to PINK for sure.

Pink Pinecone


I couldn't resist trying to make
a pink pine cone...oh I just love this.
My tree theme this year is pink and white...
This pine cone is way to big for the tree
but makes a nice home decor.
I think I might leave up all year long.

candles in this house.... :)

Ornaments out of felt~




These turned out better than I expected.

Really simple...give them a try~

Started making Christmas presents already~



Well actually have been making Christmas
presents since bout mid August.
Sure do need to get started earlier this
next year as our family is growing and growing.
Who doesn't love a homemade gift...
especially from Grandma...or Mam-Maw
as my grandchildren call me.
These Tooth Fairy Pouches are simply adorable.
I am giving one for each grandchild.
I have six so far.
One I kept for Mam-Maw's house...just in case
one of the grandkids looses a tooth while
they are staying all night. :)
These were so simple to make and
all it takes is felt and thread!
