~Christmas Memories and Simple & Sweet Fridays #94~

I wanted to share with you all our Christmas decorations this year.
The house is ready for the kids to come home.
Lots of wonderful memories of the past.
 I made the stockings years ago when the children were little.
~Our dining room~ 
I love putting out all the different Christmas villages.


Stan always does a wonderful job on the lights outside.
Katie and Scott helped this year.

Love the green heart above the wreath,
 it was a nice surprise!


Of course, 
a snowman to greet everyone!
A Welcome Christmas sign I painted!
Wishing Everyone 
A Merry Christmas!

I also wanted to thank you all for your warmhearted comments
for my mother-in-law, Mary. It meant a lot to Stan and I.
Love You All.

~Snowmen Everywhere~

Don't you just love snowmen.
I made some cupcakes for Tami's cookie party this week.
~French Vanilla~
All lined up ready to be taken home.
I went to a Children's Benefit hosted by my friend, Yuri. 
 Some women had made the cutest snowmen out of socks.
So I had to try and make some.
A collection of socks I found at Target and buttons and embellishments I bought at Michaels.

Some colorful bells added.
Easy fun project!
I love my snowmen made out of fondant.
Stan, me, Scott, Katie and Carly.
Each one represents my family and of course, the pets.
Our son, Scott with his parakeet.
Stan with our cockatoo, Putter.
Our dog, Maggie.
Our beloved, Mopsy, the rabbit.
They lasted about 8 years now.
I just glue the parts that break off.
My little miniature snowman with tiny candies inside.
Another scene with a little snowman.
Love them all!
Cute cup for the holiday!
My fluffy wise owls on a antique sled.
Hope you all are having a fun time
 decorating, baking and getting ready for
 Christmas next week.

~Sweater Bundles and Simple & Sweet Fridays #93~

I wanted to share with you a simple project
  I made out of a sweater.
~Sweater Bundles~
I made them a couple of weeks ago.
 One for a coffee cup and
 and some for votives.
 At Target they were selling the cups for $7.00 and I knew 
I could make it cheaper.
I had a sweater left over from a project at 
Thanksgiving.
Colored buttons and a glue gun.
I just used the sleeves and didn't have to sew a thing.
I think they turned out so pretty.
Have a great week!
