Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas. We did. It was a busy time. I did some baking with the help of my grandchildren. I would get one on a different day and we would make something crafty and bake something. One day we made gingerbread cookies. Another day we made pretzel sticks dipped in white chocolate and sprinkled with Christmas colored mini sprinkles. The last day we made pretzel hugs and mini brownie peanut butter bites! Our craft was a gallon milk jug decorated with a snowman's face (stickers). A hole was cut in the back side and we put clear twinkle lights inside. They really turned out cute. One day I had some apples that had mellowed out and I decided to make some apple butter in the crock pot. Turned out very good! Made some nice Christmas gifts. I had to come to a stand still in my crafting. I am sure you can relate. I cleaned up my craft space and you would be proud.
I am now considering what to start on next. I never got to sew anything that was on my list. I want to make quiet books for my two grandsons. I ran out of time before Christmas. I will keep you posted on those. I also did not get to paint anything. I want to make some signs and some canvas projects. I will post as I get into that project. I have run out of my handmade cards. I will get back into stamping, cutting and creating with paper. As you can see I have a lot to do. I am excited and I am working towards a goal.
Let me know what some of you are working on. Enjoy being creative.....it is a gift from God. Happy New Year in 2012. May it be a blessed year for you and yours.
