Back home...

after another day at work yesterday, it went well, if i can pick up 2-3 days a week we should be OK financially.

So, what did i make this weekend? I bought this paper tree kit last year, but as i was so busy doing my Christmas journal, i didn't get time to make it up. So on Sunday Hannah and i got the pieces out, and this is the result!



It's lovely, and has 25 little hanging ornaments, so can be used as an advent calendar. We made a little box for these using the K&Co paper village (still to be made up, but only bought recently!) The village is so cute too, you can put a set of Christmas lights inside, so it glows! They are much more glittery in real life, shame the camera doesn't pick this up!



I was hoping this would get me in the mood to start my Christmas cards, but it hasn't happened yet... i can see me buying them (shock horror) at this rate!)

Lovely project Ann. I love these K&CO kits too - I made the reindeer last year.
Fingers crossed for more supply work for you - it'll soon be the flu season!
Must start my cards too - but don't feel at all Christmassy!

Ooh it's gorgeous Ann, and the little house/box too..great for an Advent cal. Don't forget you'll have a rather random pile of cards to look forward to (!) from me; but sadly can't post 'em before November's end...
