Christmas 2010

This Christmas I decided to make gifts for our family rather than buying them. Christmas can get quite expensive and this saved us a lot of money. I drew out patterns for a fleur de lis and a cross several weeks ago. My dad and I cut them out using his band saw. Then I customized each one with paint and handmade felt flowers. Each one was made to suit the person it was given to. It was so much fun but took a lot of time. I'm glad to have given such a special gift this year. =) Now I can get back to working on things for my shop...like more of these! I decided they would be a great thing to sell in my Etsy shop. =) Fun Fun!

Here are a few of them. I wish I had better photos. I took these at the last minute. Silly me.
