Christmas crafting

I had bought a wreath for my front door and decided to use elsewhere and put this one together from Christmas sales from Michaels and Joanns. I find that my color palette for the holidays is more muted and natural---I think it feels calmer. I am VERY pleased with how it looks.


I hope everyone had a blessed and joyous Christmas. Now I need to get my self ready for the Crazy January Challenge.

Some days you just can't win......

I am behind on my holiday baking, and had plans to make two batches of cookies and a cake tonight. I got dinner done, and went to work...and my mixer died in the middle of cookie no. 1. I was able to finish by hand kneading the dough and then pressed into the pan (bar cookies). They are finished and tomorrow I look for another mixer. That's what I get for procrastinating..........sigh.
