I know I've been a bit absent around here since my hospital stay. It just really took it out of me. In fact I was having a little bit of a pity party over the last week about it. I decided to cheer up and get Christmas going. There has been ornament making, baking, and wrapping of gifts. Here's a peek at a bit of it...
I had a craft party and we made these pretty
glittered bulbs with two types of glitter. I kinda have a no bulb rule for our tree with only a couple of exceptions. Since they were made with family and friend and turned out so pretty I thought I'd allow them on the tree.

The night before the craft party my sis and I made these pretty
beaded snowflakes.

I love making Christmas ornaments for some reason and every year my sisters can almost always count on getting a new one from me to hang on their trees. It's usually attached to a big sack of treats me and my Honey have baked up. I haven't gotten to the ornaments yet but the treat sacks are filled and ready to be tied with an ornament and some pretty ribbon.

on hand that by chance had the same exact blue in it as the bathroom walls. So, I cut and taped it to the backside of the doors for a nice little upgrade and a bit of privacy. Worked out lovely and in fact has inspired me with a few more future ideas for the bath.
