I post these pictures to give you some ideas of things you can do! I hope they encourage you to get creative!
This will possibly be the last of my 'Christmas creations' that I'll post as I don't have too much left that I plan to do before the big day!
A collection of food I've made recently:
Reindeer cupcakes
Christmas tree chocolate chip cookies with no-egg royal icing
Christmas tree waffles - I want to make this for our Christmas breakfast!
Here's an advent calendar that I sewed - little pockets, like decorations for each day to put our Santa hat in!
And a Christmas set that I designed and sewed for my daughter!
I want one in grown-up size!!!
There's just one more week til Christmas day!
I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE Christmas time soooooooo much!
I look at our tree and it makes me smile - there truly is something that feels so joyful about seeing a decorated tree for me!
But I also think it's really important to remember the true meaning of Christmas so I'll leave you with this thought.....
Something to remember.....
This is the hushed and
holy season.
When we leave the
confusion of our busy world.
To seek a star,
and a stable, and a manger.
I'm in love with the reindeer cupcakes! They're gorgeous :) and the waffle tree- genius!
ReplyDeleteI'm so with you on the people not things, I've actually been trying to get rid off all the unneeded stuff in my apartment at the mo. This time of year really makes you think...
Loved seeing your sewing too! Completely impressed- did you use patterns or make your own?
Great idea to reduce 'things' - it does the soul good I reckon! Most of the time when it comes to sewing I draft my own patterns - and yes I did for this skirt & top also! :-)
DeleteI love all of your creations!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe there is only a week left until Christmas, I'm actually sad about it, I don't want to put the decorations away :(

I agree - I don't like taking down Christmas decorations either!!!
DeleteYour tree is gorgeous! And so is everything else :) I love the look of those waffles - are they green from spinach? Very cool!
ReplyDeletehehee I was very tempted to have 'spinach' waffles, but since we had guests its just from food colouring! Next time they'll be spinach waffles for sure!
DeleteI love those reindeer cupcakes - they are gorgeous!! You are very creative:)
ReplyDeleteThanks :-)
DeleteOh my goodness, the Christmas tree waffle is awesome! What an amazing idea =)
ReplyDeleteI would of added raspberries too if I had any but didn't at the time I took the pic! It looks super cute with different berries around it :-)
DeleteSandy, you are wonderwoman! Seriously, a job, a family, and all these genius crafty things??? HOW do you do it! Well, no matter how, they're all excellent! The waffles are adorable and I wish I had a wafflemaker now to impress my boyfriend. Merry early Christmas!!!
ReplyDeletelol Thanks!!!! I am one of those people who can't sit down for too long or I get edgy & that is how I get things done! To be honest I can't remember the last time I watched TV either!
DeleteI'm not sure about over there but I know that K-mart here sells waffle makers for just $12!!!! It would be awesome to bring a smile to your man's face with them hehehee
