I know it's a little overdue...
But thought you guys might still be interested.
I made some decorations for last year's tree, that sounds odd, last year! Wowzers, 2007 was a monster year for me. More about that later.
Wool stars, based on the Purl Bee's tutorial. Wool from Miss Minnie!
Mushrooms from this awesome tutorial, I skipped the moss base and went for a metal loop at the head of the mushroom. These were time consuming but addictive and fun to make.
Glitter hearts. These were made by painting polystyrene hearts and then whilst they were still wet sprinkling them with fine glitter. For scale the silver stars are approximately 1mm across. Easy!
AND I knitted Baby Bobbi Bear for The Son using Blue Sky Alpacas organic cotton. However his name is Brown Eye the Bear.
2007! Wow, I was definitely blessed last year. Well blessed at the end of 2006 when The Son and I met. We've had an amazing year together. I reckon it must be love as no-one has made me this happy or as pissed at times! As I have her. I won't go into lots of details here but will say thank you Son. Thank you for making my life more full, fun and joyous than I could ever imagine.
Oh ok, for those of you who want more cute puppy pictures. Here you go. See the nice dry, half dead lawn? Care of the stupid 40C days we've been having.
Happy crafting!







Those ornaments are very cute! And your puppy is adorable even when chewing up a shoe...
