A creative evening

  

So much fun, few friends gathered to create something nice for Christmas, wreaths for the front door or small cute decorations. Listening to Christmas songs and sing along.

Fill a gingerbread form with moss and decorate it with small berries and a ribbon, nice little decoration to give away or hang in the window.   

Happy creativity everyone

Christmas Cards




These are last years Christmas Cards, I am still work on this year cards, I will put them on the blog later, when everybody has gotten theirs. I make about 60 cards every Christmas to send to relatives and friends all around the world. I think that is a great way to stay in contact with people that have crossed your path on your journey of live. I always have a theme but no two cards are exactly the same.

Happy card making

Christmas at Macy´s









We where in New York the other week, yah the same week as Sandy. So our trip was not quit as we had hoped for. Everything was closed and a big part of Manhattan was with out electricity, but we where lucky and we had light at our place. But on our last day Macy´s was open and we had few hours to do some shopping and I could not believe my eyes when we came to the top floor, the Christmas department, it was just amazing for a Christmas crazy person like my self,  but I got only 10 minutes there, not enough time, not enough I promise you. But Sunna and I found a few Christmas decorations for our tree, we here so happy and we can’t wait until we can hang them in our Christmas tree.

Jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way

Advent Calendar






This old Father Christmas has been around for thirteen years, my mother gave it to my daughter when she was only one years old and every December since he has joined Sunna in her room with small gifts.
We disused it this year if it was time for him to take a rest as Sunna is not a little girl anymore, but we both felt that he is such a big part of our Christmas traditions that he was not going anywhere and we are both happy with that decision. So Father Christmas and my self have been working together with the small gifts. And as Sunna likes to craft, most of the gifts are for crafting, she has already started painting her LOVE letters in wood. And some candy is not that bad either :)  

I have some technical problems with my blog so I can’t post as much as I like, but hopefully I will get it fixed as soon a possible

Happy Christmas crafting everybody
Lots of hugs
Sif
