excited! (to finally share this post!)

Most of you know that I love Christmas.  This year I made quite a few things for different people and now that most of these items have been received I can post pictures of them, which I have been wanting to do since October!

First are the ornaments that I made for the Smiths this year:  adorable bottle cap snowmen

(I got the idea on What I Live For - last year lol)

Next up I made quite a few of these babies - Christmas Light Christmas Card holders - this were fun to make and once I had made several and I was finally getting the hang of it I was done.  Here is mine hanging up with the 2 cards we have gotten so far:

(I got this idea at We Are the Joneses  - also last year!)  I hope everyone likes them!

I also made an ornament for the ornament exchange - Walter the Farting Dog:

(I got this idea from my head ^^ and I know you would all like a link to that but I won't give it out sorry)  Richard the recipient of this ornament is the person who first introduced me to Walter, and last night he told me he laughed and laughed when he opened it.

Bill and I made these one night:

(The idea came from here - but I only painted our fingers then painted the bottom of the ornament white so the snowmen wouldn't just be floating)

Once I was making ornaments I was on a kick and had to convince myself that we had gotten plenty of new ornaments this year.  But that I was after I made this one:

Finally the sad story, though I know it is totally my fault.  I made this beautiful ornament for my friend Courtney who got married this past summer.  Here it is:

That is her wedding announcement cut up and rolled up inside.  The sad part is I didn't pack it well enough and it arrived in Utah in pieces - sorry Courtney, I hope you enjoy the pictures at least.
