Stockings

I decided that it would be fun to make a few stockings. I originally wanted to because I hate traditional Christmas red and green. I was planning on going dark yellow and gray/silver. It seemed much more cute for the holidays. However, I decided to go red and white and skip the green to have a happy medium. Had I known how easy they are to whip up I would have made some long ago.

I love the normal round toe and the elf-like curled up toe. I've made a few of both. I have a decent assortment of styles but I took a quick pic of a couple of my first. I'm excited about it.

Lanterns

These are some lanterns I found at a thrift store and cleaned up and painted. Fun, cute and cheap!

Sick days and Nutcracker

I'm not neglecting the blog I swear. Had the flu on and off for 2 weeks. No joke. It's been so miserable. Today I actually ran a couple errands so I feel like a superhero. Still pretty sick and exhausted though. But I've still been doing some cute stuff on good days. So.... I thought I'd share with you my favorite ballerina.
