Are they gone? Good. Now, for the rest of you-
This Christmas season I find myself crafting, and crafting, and crafting some more. It's like someone opened up my blocked crafty gates. My mind keeps churning and my hands making. Mind you, not everything turns out the way it's supposed to (like the time I boiled cashmere for hours to felt it... big mistake... we just ended up a horribly smelly sweater), but it's just fun to make stuff.
Since Christmas (or as I now dub it "Craft-mas" get it? Tee hee...) is just a couple of weeks away, I'm crafting more holiday items. First I made the fortune cookie advent calendar and the geometric straw ornaments. This week we tried our hand at making salt dough ornaments. Patty from Make it Cozee posted such clear directions and cute photos that it was easy to get super cute results. (Thanks, Patty!)
We painted the hand prints gold and we had a whole bunch of dough left so we made some tinier ornaments too.
Hopefully we can make this a yearly tradition. Then we can see Baby Chuck growing.. and growing.. and growing... (Hmm... does this mean we need plate sized ornaments? Oh well, we'll cross that bridge when we get there.)
