Holiday blah


Phew, another Christmas is over and I'm still (barely) sane! I always love making gifts for friends and family- usually a cute little cuddly creature for my niece and daughter, a few ornaments, maybe a few batches of cookies. This year however, I was so uninspired, I was the craft scrooge! I didn't want to make anything, buy anything, go anywhere, or in general do anything. At the last minute I thought, ok, I'll just make one quick ornament, no pressure. That "quick" ornament turned into a renewed desire to create create create! I added buttons, stitches, details, and spent over two hours finessing my ornament creation. And it turned out great! Christmas day I spent the morning making a new bag, which should be up on my etsy site very soon. I hope you all are having a very happy and creative holiday.
