Today I talked to my daughter who is in New York visiting her "New" Family (in-laws). She told me her sister is at home being "Bah Humbug" !! I think I almost fit in that catagory! Almost I say because I am just way behind !! Although I must admit I am really not much in the "spirit" .My daughters and grandson will not be home AGAIN this year ! I just got my DH to put up the tree today, not like there is any hurry. So I will be watching the TV and putting some decorations on tonight. I have been doing a bunch of Holiday Crafts the last couple of weeks. I got 2 beautiful calendars mailed off to the girls, which they swear are the only presents they want for Christmas! Then I made a couple of advent calendars. I have been seeing them on all the boards and in the galleries and couldn't resist making a couple of my own.
This is one from a regular size muffin tin.
Then I made a couple of Gift cans out of "paint" cans that are quart size. I got a great deal on My Minds Eye glitter alphas at CKC Seattle in November and altered the cans! Very Fun!
This one, above I have listed on ShopHandmade. And this one, below I gave as a gift.
So.......................I still have a little Christmas/Holiday "spirit". Besides , how could I not when I looked out my studio window and this is what I saw,
today, December 19th,2008, Happy Birthday, to my Grandson !! It's cold ! and
"It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" as the song goes !! well.......I'm off to trim the tree....
