Christmas bits & pieces

My apologies for lack of posts lately!

I'm actually enjoying some off-line time!
And thoroughly enjoying being crafty ;-)

Here's what I've been up to:

Making Christmas cards

 

 

Sewing bits and pieces:

 I adore this little ribbon tree set! Debating making it in adult size for myself!

Now I must admit that this stocking advent calendar was just a pre-made cut out kit that I bought. None the less, I think it is just SO cute! :-)

And of course,
I felt it necessary to show you my 'going out hair-do'....

Because there's always one crazy person at every party..... and that person is usually ME!

I am hoping to share a few more recipes in the next week that are quick & easy, but also nutritious. Much needed at this time of year!

Christmas Creations

Here's some more Christmas pictures to get your creative juices flowing!
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.

 

 

 

Christmas decorations!

Couldn't resist the urge to put a picture of the Christmas place-mats & coasters I made!   

Vegan Christmas High-Tea 

YUMMO!
