Trees & Stars

I made these stars and trees today.

I used the patterns that I linked in the previous post.
I plan on making a bunch of them and stringing them together to make a garland.

They need to be starched and blocked.

I'm not crazy about the colors. I might add some white to break up the brightness.

I like the green. There is a bit of silver in it that makes it sparkly.


I went shopping for craft supplies today.
I bought all sorts of goodies:
paint, glue, felt, buttons, pipe cleaners, beads, and a foam ornament kit.
It was fun. I felt like a kid in a candy store.

We will put our tree up Thursday afternoon.
The daily crafting will begin Friday.
My kids are already excited about it.

I've got a feeling that this is going to be a good Christmas. :-)

Until Next Time........
