Birthday Musings....

Last Friday was my birthday and my mom and family treated me to a wonderful day. I went to pick my mom up because she was taking me to lunch at Bobo's....my favorite Vietnamese restaurant, and this is what was waiting for me. A wonderful gift basket filled with goodies. We were looking at the latest Martha Stewart Magazine and saw a cake plate towered with red and white Christmas candy.  I commented on how I would like to do that, and she went out and found every red and white candy she could find to fill this basket. There were a few goodies that wouldn't fit in the basket as well. But don't you think this is a fantastic basket? My mom has a talent for making great baskets.

So, after lunch.....and dinner, I went home and played with all the goodies in the basket and put this together...

What do you think? Isn't it fun? I am hoping to share it with some of my guests for the Holiday Open House in a week or so. I hope it will last that long....

Crazy Ladies Nov. Craft Night

Our once a month craft group met on Monday night for some Christmas Ornament crafting fun. Paula hosted this month and her parents were visiting from out of town so I was able to meet her mom. What a nice gal...just as lovely as Paula....guess that is where she got her wonderfulness.  Jen and I were the only other two from the regular group to make it this time since it was so close to Thanksgiving Day, and we had a blast. Paula made these years ago and decided to teach us how to make them....check out how stinking cute they are.....

This cute little angel isn't supposed to be bald, but I didn't find the hair or yarn for it yet. They are made from paper bags, cut out, painted and embellished. We added wire hanger and there you are....cute handmade ornament for decorating or giving.

If you look closely you can see the adorable cookie cutter shapes used to embellish the gingerbread cookie man. So adorable!

Last but not least, this adorable snowman! Isn't he cute!!! I can hardly believe I made him. I didn't get pics of the other ones made last night, but they were all soooo cute! Thanks to Paula for hosting a fun and festive evening.

Cupcake Gift Box

We made this wonderful cupcake gift box at our last upline meeting. The cupcake is a holder for a small treat or gift. It fits perfectly in the box and the box has a window on top so you can see the cute ribbon flower on the top. Contact me for more details and information. I would love to show you how to make one of your own. Schedule a class with me!

Boxes, Bags, & Tags Class

These are some of the projects I was going to teach at my class Sat., Nov. 20, 2010.  Aren't they cute? 

This is a little box that can hold several different items, I made this one to hold my irish cream truffles. It also holds Christmas tags. I will wrap it with a ribbon and put an embellishment on top to complete it.

These box bags are ideal for all kinds of gifts. Quick and easy to make and adorable coverings for those Birthday or Christmas gifts.

Tags and bags anyone? The SU Tags til' Christmas stamp set makes oodles of tags in minutes and the box or bag are perfect holders. These make perfect gifts for the upcoming season.  If you are interested in making any of these projects please contact me and we can schedule the next class!
