Getting Busy with my crafting!

It is November!  Which means my cooking and crafting mode seem to really seems to be full on!!  I have been trying new recipes from THM and I have found several really good new meals to add to my list.  And it is good for us!  With the holidays coming soon, the food thing can get out of hand, so hopefully this THM will help me not overdo the sugar.   Crafting is my Jam!!  I really love to create all kinds of things.  Baskets have always been one of my favorites.  You can use them in so many ways.  The green with the holly and berries and the red with the trees and snowflakes are 8 x 8 and work great when putting together gift baskets for those special friends!  I also like to use them for goodies - I will serve muffins in them or pack them with holiday cookies and take them to church!  Or put your Christmas cards that come in the mail this December in them. The other one (it is navy with cranberry and gold) and it is about 11...

I LOVE CHRISTMAS!

I hope you are enjoying this Christmas Season!  I have done a few fun projects.  One of the first of the season was coming up with decorations for our tree.   Mark helped me.  We put our elf hats on, went outside and gathers our materials then sat outside and got creative!  We moved at the end of the summer and we have not unpacked much since we don't know when or where we might go from here.  So instead of finding our Christmas decorations we went with a semi-natural decor.  We gathered lots of pine cones and glittered them unmercifully!  It was fun!  I had some picks of roses and greenery and stuck them in the tree then we put the glittered pine cones on the tree.  We wanted some garland so we found tiny pine cones  added glitter again, then strung them on jute.  I made stars out of vines and jute and put them on the tree, too. Hank added the candy canes, of course!!! It turned out nicely.  ...
