She's Crafty

She's just my type.

(Just wanted to show my wide range of musical interests...Sound of Music on Wednesday all the way to....well, can you name them?  I bet a few of you can.)

WARNING:  If you are in my family and stand a chance of getting a Christmas gift from me, either stop reading this post now so you can be surprised, or read on so you can pick exactly what you would like.

So we're starting to get a little holiday spirit around here and it all started with a fourth grade school project.  The middle kid will be participating in Market Day at school here pretty soon.  (Think gigantic market where you can buy all kinds of "handmade by fourth graders" loot with fancy, pretend school money...that's the best kind of $).  Anyway, she has opened her own little sweat shop at home, though  I will admit I have been itching to craft so I volunteered readily.  Here's what we have been working on...

 

 

 

This is the one I'm hoping she will hold for me. 

And then since we were already being so crafty, I decided to try out a different project.  I'll tell you right now, the big one is for me.

 

 

I love ribbon.

Happy Friday before Thanksgiving!  Woohoo!  Let the fun begin!

Those are so cute!! How long did the ribbon wreath take you? That's a great idea.

I love it!! You ARE the queen of crafts in my book!
The wreath turned out so well!

You are so stinking crafty. I wish I had 1/2 your talent.

Um, hello, Beastie Boys!!! PLUS a little Mistress Martha??? This is like my dream post. Any chance your crafters want to send some love to MT????

I am hoping for a lovely wreath and some fabulous blocks. I am so lucky that I get to actually go to Market Day. I hope she holds one for me.
