In November I finally found some time and motivation to make some real craft projects. Jerry and I don't have a wreath, and I was striking out on finding one that was affordable that we liked. Instead I bought an ornament set for $5 from Target, a plain wreath, and some battery operated lights and made this:
If I had been thinking I would have bought an ugly wreath from ARC or Savers and remade it, but I didn't think about that until after this was finished. Next year it will need an upgrade. I used the ties that came with the ornaments and they don't hold very well. Shortly after it was hung, it was bumped off the door and is now missing a few balls.
This month I also signed up for an ATC swap again. I made two cards - one a collage based on the Hunger Games district 7; the other done with water color pencil, is a Nativity scene. I'm probably not going to do ATCs this month because I'm actually attempting to craft some Christmas presents. Clara is crawling now, so I am finding I can only craft when she's sleeping. Hopefully I manage to get everything finished!
