Bring on the fatman....

Not sure what this picture really says about my husband....... but putting out the Christmas stuff was one fun SHINDIG for us today!

All the Christmas outfits are handmade again this year.  3/4 of them are made by Me.  I have pledged to buy or make handmade gifts for all my friends and family this Christmas..... How bout you?  I'm even making little labels to go next to the prezzie name tags to advertise my commitment! Hope I can make it!  Power to the handmade nation this Christmas!

Craziest Week of the Year

So this week we have two birthdays, my eldest turns 9 (OHMIGOOGNESS) and my number 3 turns 3!!!!!!!! It is hectic round here with last minute sewing, organising birthday goodness and when oh when do I make the cakes!

But today,  I took time out to do a little beading......

and finish off Shelby's UPCYCLED Christmas outfit! This was a strapless XS JayJay's dress that I picked up at Uncle Vinnies (aka St Vincent DePaul's) and EMbellished with Christmas frills and straps - far more suitable for an 8 (almost 9) year old.  All for under $10 I might add!  Happy with THAT!

Welcome to the silly season happy crafters!
