Christmas Craft

I wanted to make E something special for her Christmas Ornament last year so I came up with this. 
I made a tassel from her horse's (Pep's) tail, made a small wreath from old barb wire and added a Christmas bell.  I think it was a hit because it stayed in her room after Christmas and didn't get packed away with the rest of the ornaments.

On a different subject I don't think I will be getting any Christmas cards sent out this year.  Too much of my time and energy has been spent dealing with a church issue.  If anyone every asks for you to be on the Pastor/Parrish Relations committee (or particularly the chair of that committee)  run away.  Run far, far away.      You might even try screaming and waving your arms in the air as you run.

  7. I only send out a few cards every year, cause I want to, not cause I feel I have too.

    That is a very cool ornament, I may steal the idea and make one too :)
