On the First Day of Christmas

My True Love gave to me.....


Last year on the day after Christmas, I cleaned out Target of their most fabulous shatterproof ornaments and I've hoarded them to make the girls' fanciest holiday headbands of all. Olivia wore hers yesterday at her kindy Winter Wonderland party. 


It was also pajama day at school so I had my mom whip up some Christmasy jammie pants and a quick and easy little scarf for her to wear. Don't you just love Grandmas?


I just wrapped a plain white plastic headband with red satin fabric strips, then used this ruffled flower tutorial from Sew Mama Sew to make the red, green, and white lace flowers. Then I topped the whole thing off with a big fat, glittery Santa ornament hot glued to the center. It's a little loud and obnoxious, but I wouldn't have it any other way. 










Team Tuesday: 12 days of Christmas Framed Art

Tuesday, December 13, 2011

In preparation of the 12 days of Christmas I'm starting on the blog tomorrow, I designed a little printable art that I am displaying in my bookshelf.



All you need to make your own is the ever-so-versatile Number Junque Kit and you can choose any background or paper to print it on! I used some House of 3 Fall Junque Notebook paper, but you can find something similar at Fuzzimo or just print on actual notebook paper to get the same look!

This challenge was kind of hard for me. I mean, I love sooooo many things. My family, food {specifically pie}, music, dancing, Christmas..... the list goes on and on. How do you choose just ONE? And how to capture that one thing ever so perfectly? So I decided to stick with the Sound of Music on this one and go with the small things that make me smile. I mean, who doesn't love Girls in White Dresses with Blue Satin Sashes and Snowflake that Stay on My Nose and Eyelashes?


Let's see what the other girls of Foto Friday love:

I Love Lens Flare. Never been all that terrific at it, but I do love it so. Observe:



I wish I could say this is the real thing, alas it was a dark and stormy day yesterday and I had to make due with an action. I still like it though, and how about that Rosemary Christmas Tree? Darling.

Let us see how the other ladies of Foto Friday interpreted this week's challenge:
