next project

I'm excited about this one because it's so simple yet perfect. An awesome place to catch the keys, change, receipts, etc. Also, this will make a good gift to my new visiting teachees and my family - if, of course I don't get distracted after making my own. Did I mention I love felt? Felt projects are my fave!

christmas stocking project

So far I've completed Eddy's stocking. See?! I have yet to start my own but this only took 1 night to do. Very simple but the zig zag fabric scissors? Not cheap! I will post more when both stockings are done and hung :)

christmas decorating

My work is very festive when it comes to Christmas, and by very festive I mean overboard crazy festive! There are SO many decorations we don't use even after covering every table, corner, nook, and cranny. So, I was able to swipe some for myself! Thanks EMG :)

My Work

Here's just by my desk

My Home
Here's some of the decorations I got to take home

And these are just some presents I already have wrapped - I'm so on top of things!

Eddy and I are fans of real trees so probably this weekend or soon after we will go get one and then our Christmas decorating will feel more complete. Projects are also being completed so more will be coming soon.
