It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

I am not a huge fan of Halloween.....I think once my sons got too old to sew costumes for, it just lost all it's fun!! So, I have moved on to Christmas. This is my first project so far. A sweet, sugary, glittery village. The roof and shutters are a gorgeous pink, and the houses are a lovely shade of green. I found pink mica flakes online, and they make the roof look good enough to eat!The largest house is my favorite, of coarse it is....just look at the adorable snowman and deer. eek...I love them...
I still need to add door knobs, and add the lights to the back, but I couldn't wait to share.
I added the icicles....and don't you just love this sweet deer??
The glittery snowman is so cute!!!
I have everyone has a lovely day.....check back later for more Christmas goodies!

Kids Day Crafting

My son and his friend Jill are huge Florida Gators fans.....you cannot imagine how obsessed they are with the team. Last night when we were shopping at Michael's, they spotted these crazy wooden Gators, and had to have them. They are now spending the day painting them. What a hoot. I needed a good laugh, and they are providing it.
I hope that you find something today to make you smile.
