Christmas! Friends! Food! Crafting!

Christmas! Friends! Food! Crafting! makes for a perfect day... recently I shared my home with DEAR FRIENDS  as we spent the day crafting and enjoying an amazing Christmas Potluck lunch together.  Everyone brought their own project to work; however, I also had some easy peasy Christmas crafts available to make.

We've been working with Belle and her social manners.  She did well this day and 
spent most of it with her new buddies (Belle & Gail)

 

 Funny looking, the pink under Belle's nose is actually her new pink collar not her tongue

 Where was that?

Beth & Nora... Giggles while we work

Which one next, hum?

Oh, that's it!

Karla the Master of Creating

Making pretties

Was it something like this...


My husband questioned why I was saving empty toilet paper rolls and White Oak acorn husk... because I knew they would make darling birdhouses...







Other pretties we made

    1. It was a good time! We should put on our thinking caps for more toilet paper roll ideas as I have gathered a few empty ones...smile.

    1. Thanks Terri! I love the beauty of how many beautiful birdhouses were created using the same base design along with a few different materials and each artist's creative spirit!

    1. No more pumpkin treats for Belle… but there are still a few days of holiday gatherings...who knows what she might declare as hers.
      Merry Christmas to you and all you love ones too!
