Tis the Season...

…for projects. I decided to do the homemade thing this Christmas. I actually started all my projects plenty early but got distracted with other things going on in life which slowed me down and I ended up cramming everything together anyway and resulted in the pictures from the previous post. Any who, my first project was making seven sets of these pillows…or 21 pillows total.

I saw the idea on Pintrest for ‘Trick-or-Treat’ and didn’t think anything of it until I saw my Aunt April’s version of them. They were so cute! So I used her idea and transferred it to a Christmas look. I like them but they were a pill to paint.

Next, I started on making Christmas cards. I wanted to send Christmas cards (it’s part of our 101) but wanted to keep cost down. Bring on all the old scrapbooking stuff I never use anymore. Of course these got put hold and only went out a few days ago. So anyone who emailed me and asked for one, they are coming still. I promise.

I also made two blankets. I used to make blankets in high school for a PersonalProgress project and then started giving them to my nephews as they were born. Thus it has been required that I keep the tradition going (and I finally get to make a little girl one for my sister!). I forgot to take a picture of both of them but here’s Wally’s.

Finally homemade sugar cookies for Activity Days and wrapping of the presents brought on the crazy house from the previous post.
