The decorating is done, the wrapping is all done but the finishing, so I decided that I simply needed to make some little decorations to add a little extra glimmer to our tree. A dig into my broken jewelry/bead/fancy button stash yielded some interesting pieces that were serving no other purpose....so...
Most of them measure only a couple inches long.
I justified the entire enterprise by saying that I was using up some stash and that the additional ornies would tuck easily in and around other ones so I can retain the 'container concept' for Christmas decorations.
- I just made one of THESE (and if I had more of the right sized pins I would have made more!). THESE are really cute too! And so are THESE.
- Sometimes it's the simple things that come in really handy as THIS will show.
- There are lots of links HERE to some great ideas for foodie gifts. HERE too. And THESE would be for someone with a sweet tooth.
- THIS is a simple stocking pattern/tutorial that might come in handy.
Today the quote is from Jillayne Wickware (who wrote this on her blog and it really resonated with me so thought I'd share it)..."Perfection can be the death of expressiveness"
