Christmads Fair

Thursday 26th Nov 2009 @ 8:38 am

It’s starting to get so that I’m waking up in half light and coming home in the dark. That’s ok though, christmas is coming! Tomorrow marks one month to christmas. Are you ready? I had planned to do a whole lot of christmas crafting for family and friends. What I’ve actually done is sign up to participate in a local christmas fair… It’s on the 12th of December.

So… I’ve been being industrious and I’m making many decorations, planning how my stall will look, planning what cakes and cookies/biscuits I will make. It’s frightening and exciting all at the same time.

I tried photographing my decorations but I just can’t do them justice. I’d have another go but they are all wrapped ready to be sold now. I have to be organised you know.

I must be mad to agree to do it at such short notice but it is Christmads!

Pinch, Punch, First Day of The Month

Saturday 1st Dec 2007 @ 3:33 pm

Hello December!

As my new HK diary says . I start the month stuck . I can’t find a face for my doll. I think she should have big eyes but the buttons just don’t look right. Embroidery is not my forte so I don’t think that’s the way to go either. I don’t want to mess up her head. I’m thinking some felt disks may be the way to go so add that to my shopping list. As for a mouth… I always think mouths on fabric dolls look odd. I dunno, I think she looks lovely as is and don’t want to spoil her!

Other than that today is Christmas decorations time! I already put up the Christmas tree bar the lights and star. I wasn’t expecting to be home this weekend. So just the lights for the windows (The kind that fade in and out) and the ceiling decorations (My paper stars) to do.

In the usual starry fashion I wandered off half way through this post to get started. I can’t help it, I love Christmas! Windows are now done lights on tree and I’ll put the star on later when I switch on the lights. I think the windows look especially nice this year. I would go take pictures but my neighbours might think me crazy in my PJ’s, mad hair and all. Besides I think it needs to be dark with the lights on for the best effect.While I’ve got all the furniture out though, going to have a vacuum behind there and pick up all the things (There you are Hello Kitty pen!) I hadn’t even realised had fallen down there. Surprisingly undusty though.

Have a great weekend people!
