I LOVE MAKING THINGS....

I LOVE MAKING THINGS!
 
The glue gun is killing me, but I love adding the baubles and sparkles to these little trees.  I don't know why I never did it before...but they are fun!  (You've seen my earlier post ...my ladies' night with Sis Boom...that got me going on the sparkle aspect....!)  I remember as a young girl gluing sequins to felt tree skirts....
Making things is so much more fun than shopping for gifts...I'm so sick of the ads for shopping for the "early bird deals"...kills the Christmas spirit. It doesn't take long to decorate these trees and it makes you stop and think about family and Christmas memories.  Now, unfortunately, the craft stores are already having their 70% off sales...it's not even December 1st....so good luck finding them....back to the internet. 
 
See the star hanging over my desk?  It's made of flocked red paper....I love it....it's not just going to be for Christmas.  I've been doing some painting but nothing I can show or it will give away some Christmas ideas I have in the works....I'm having fun!  Hope you are too.
