Beki's Beads

While making the rounds of my favorite blogs this morning,
I ran across these marvelous
Christmas tree ornaments
from
http://artsycraftybabe.typepad.com/

The wooden beads are from the Dollar Tree and they are
strung on big fluffy pipe cleaners.

She did this as a project for her children,
but I think that even us adults
could do it!

Beki's tree and decorations are
all in bright, primary colors
this year and are wonderful,
as always!

Do visit Beki's blog and
her Etsy store.
I'm the proud owner of
several of her items.
You will
love them, too!

Merry Christmas!

Machine Embroidered Christmas Ornaments with Beads

Here are just a few more of the
Christmas ornaments I've made this year. I'd like to start early next year and make enough of these and the beaded snowflakes to do a whole tree!

Christmas Snow

Wednesday, December 12, 2007

I've been spending my restful hours making snowflakes for our Christmas tree and for those of family and friends. It looks like this may be the only snow we get this year. At Thanksgiving the lows were around 22. Yesterday our high temperature reading was 76 degrees, making it hard to get into the Christmas spirit.

I've been making homemade rolls for our parties and friends. Candy making should begin tomorrow if the weather stays dry. Our annual Christmas party is this weekend. My poor darling husband is doing most of the work again this year. I know he'll be glad when I am fully recovered!
