Christmas is Everywhere!

I had a very Christmasey weekend this past weekend. My daughter and I went to about six craft fairs in one day. SIX! And I scored some very cool, old Santa figures for my collection. Even a nesting doll style Santa set that was a real steal at just $6! :) I will post pictures of them in my next blog post. I wanted to show you some of the Christmas projects I've been working on - this first one is for "Say It With Letters". It's their wreath shape which comes unfinished and you get to decorate it any way you wish so of course that meant I junked mine up! :)
I put on it all the things I love about Christmas - the decorations, the food, the bling and color!
Check out the SIWL store and blog to get ideas and to get one of your own! :)
Also - yesterday I did this fun project. I got some adorable free printable images and added them to these little birdhouses. Fun!
And I got the nicest surprise today! My sister made me this BEAUTIFUL ring for my birthday! Isn't it gorgeous??? It's a moonstone set in a beautiful sterling silver gallery wire setting with a carved band. She made it all herself and makes gorgeous things. If you want something nice for yourself or a unique Christmas gift for someone, check out her Etsy shop: Shire Jewelry
