Decorations

It has been great fun seeing so many wonderful decorations from all over the world

Anni Downs shared this fabulous Christmas wallhanging which I have just managed to finish.....


Mine is done in felt... you can find Anni's free download pattern HERE 

My tree this year is a palm tree seed branch - dried and painted and filled with mostly hand made decorations


Christmas tree frog has found some fresh greenery to hide in ....


Tis the Season wall hanging and special stockings... one for me... one for Hubz (thanks to Shez)


Val found a really sweet knitted angel mouse pattern which I couldn't resist.... you can see Val's fabulous version HERE and she has the link for the pattern in her sidebar..

Thanks Val... (I think I got the ears too far forward.... but she is still quite cute!)


but I have to admit these are my all time favourite decorations


These are the owners of the stockings in my header
awesome.... just awesome

tear making awesome they are

I only get to hug one so he will have to take an awful lot of hugz in lieu

(and I have half a dozen spare baubles... just in case!!! no pressure)

  2. I love it with felt, it came out beautifully.
    Now, that fan tree, that is the most clever thing I have ever seen, I have fans and with my crazy cats, maybe I should hang them up there, lol.
