It’s nearly December, which of course means it’s nearly Christmas. Today, in hopes of not leaving everything to the last minute I got something done for Christmas!

I picked up this large cane wreath at an op shop recently for a couple of bucks. I bought some tinsel, a garland, some battery operated lights, a bell and some Santa tags and got to work. I wound things around and around and wired the lights and battery pack to secure them around the back.

It was hard to take a good photo but I am very happy with how it turned out. Not bad for an hour’s work!

Last Sunday I had another good day at the Old Bus Depot Markets and I’ll be there again on Saturday 16 and Saturday/Sunday 22 and 23 December.

It’s been a while since I have put up any gorgeous children photos so here they are:

Jack is just about finished 1st grade and likes to tell us he’s not 6, he’s 6 and 3/4.

      You are a super-crafty woman! This looks great.

      I am looking for a pattern for making “bloomers” for over nappies in size 1-3. Do you have such a thing? Any tips on making a pattern up from an old pair?
