Happy 1. Advent

I can't believe it is time already for the 1. Advent it seems early this year and it does not feel like it at all, the kids are outside wearing t-shirts and it is 72*F outside.



for our table decoration I went simple this year, I used a wavy serving plate 4 candle holders from Target and small ornaments from last year. I love the simplicity of this decoration and it is cleaned up in no time.





Happy 1. Advent

Lace ornaments

I love angels, this one will hang on our christmas tree, it needs a gold thread for hanging, but it looks beautiful like this too.


I'm planning to make a lot of these and send them out with our christmas cards.
this cross is a bible bookmark, there is a loop on top for adding ribbons. I do not know if this ornament is a snow flake or a christmas star, but it is beautiful anyway, I made some red and white ones to hang on the window with clear hooks.

**candy cane ornaments**

... just finished are some more candy cane holder ornamentsthis pink little reindeer would be perfect for a little girl


or how about a lizzard climbing down a candy cane, my boys liked this one

this polar bear is great and can be very easily changed by using a different color for the scarf


I'm making lots of these for family and friends.
