All kinds of Christmassy....... Well it is October!

Now that October has arrived and there is a chill in the air, it seems a litte more acceptable to mention .... Christmas!!  It didn't back in August when we were getting our initial ideas together and it still didn't last month, probably because I was finding it difficult to let go of Summer (an annual ritual for me!). 

But now..... it feels right.  And I'm quite excited!!

We sourced some gorgeous free standing wooden shapes that were perfect for the job and with a splash of paint and a touch of For Keep's Sake sparkle, we have come up with some very festive personalised Christmas Decorations.

It may have taken until now to write a post about our christmas decorations, but I couldn't help showcasing them at a Fundraiser last Friday morning, where we had a stall (and even sold a few!) :o)

Other Projects

As well as getting festive, last week was also spent creating some bespoke wooden wall letters for some very special little people in my life (one of which has not been born yet - let's hope they were right when they confirmed the sex!).  I'll be featuring these in next Monday's post as I'm hoping to get some photos of them on the walls of their new homes.

Craft Fairs

We have a few craft / christmas fairs coming up over the next couple of months but we're also looking into getting a regular stall for a local artisan market.  In hindsight we could have picked a much warmer time of year to get a regular spot - something to note for the future!

So lots going on, as usual.  I'm off to visit Handmade Monday and see what has been happening over there.  So until next time.....

  2. I can see these decorations as being really popular, especially for a child's first Christmas. I also know lots of (organised)people who buy their child a decoration each year. These would be just perfect!
