As much as I'm getting used to the color pink (hated it as a kid), I like the usual colors for Christmas - RED, WHITE, and GREEN, and definitely more RED! I decorated and whipped up a few items for the holidays. So far I'm loving everything!
Like these stuffed heart-shaped ornaments. I should make some more. This is a great idea to use up some of your scraps. I like the fabric covered buttons as an accent. I'm soooo ready for Valentine's, too!
I made a pair of matching stockings using one of my CK fabrics. Love it! Wait a sec, do you see anything wrong with this one? Obviously, I wasn't paying attention when I was sewing it. Had to re-do it, of course! Tee-hee!
I started decorating but I'll add more stuff around the house when we get a tree. Yes Monica, Sweetie and I are going to enjoy a live tree this year! We desperately need to breathe something other than smelly smog for a change! Anyhoo, I decorated one of the built-in open shelves in the kitchen. I especially love my collection of paper-mache Rolly Polly santas I purchased a few years back. Sweetie called the pom-pom trim dingle-berries! Umm, sure you can call it that!!!
Look at this! The little gnome is playing hard to get. Emma, my little helper told me to check-in with the household diva before I started decorating. Check!
These are from my Deck the Halls Ornament swap partner, Mary Ann. Everything goes well with my decorating theme. I especially like the cute red 'Doe'. Thanks, Mary Ann!
BTW, I met Sharon and Cheryl yesterday and they were laughing at me because of my attire. In my defense, it wasn't a balmy 60-degrees more like freakin' 50-degrees according to my car's temperature gauge. I trust my car more so than these menopausal ladies with an internal temperature that is soo totally out of whack! LOL! Ok Sharon, so I need to put more meat on my skinny bones. If you could help fatten me up that would be SUPER. Don't like anything greasy, though! Except for In and Out cheeseburger with grilled onions and strawberry milkshake with a side of Mickey-Dee's french fries! Mmmmmmm, YUMMY!!! Love it but not everyday.
Hope you're enjoying your weekend! Toodles!
