It was so close to Christmas..

At the time it seemed a really good idea. With a week till Christmas, I decided to make these little babies.  I saw the idea alittle while ago and decided to make it for the kids.  The crayon rolls where a perfect stocking stuffer.

 I had a lot of fun making them!  I put the kids' initals on the outside of it. paired it with a stetch book.  They loved them!

I made these pot holders for my mom.  1st

 time doing them.  I was pretty impressed.  Infact, all of these things are a first time ever doing them.  I was very, very surprised with myself!!  I put them with some coasters as well...they just didn't make it in the picture.

Now these little sweethearts are my babies.  I love the way they turned out.  My sister took the pictures, my husband cut the pieces of wood, and I did the rest.  This was my most favorite thing I made....the night before Christmas Eve....at 3:00 in the morning!  But I thought, I've got tons of coffee, and pop, Matt has been waking up every moment I fall asleep.  I mean come on....sleep is sooo over rated!

                             

Now this, tihs is my almost favorite thing I made.  If it hadn't been for my babies, I'd say it was my favorite!  Mike helped out by cutting the wood! and I put it together.   And in the cup (no I didn't make it...Target did) is some coasters I made to make the present complete! Please don't look at the crazy women in the picture.  She has no makeup and for goodness sakes, she hasn't slept in days.  I'm not kidding....DAYS!!!  Anyway it's the flag we are looking at!  I was so surprised that I could do this!  I had tons of fun and am thinking of other things I am going to try!  How am I feeling about these things I've made...well lets just use a quote from a very famous movie......Tommy Boy........."Well then I get all excited. I'm like Jojo the idiot circus boy with a pretty new pet."
