Christmas Giveaway



It's not quite December, so I'm thinking that there is still plenty of time left to do some Christmas crafting.  Christmas to me has always been about the handmade, ever since I was a little girl.  My Grandmother was quite the talented maker of many wonderful things.  It was always with anticipation that we opened her presents, hoping like crazy that this was the year that you would receive the gift that she had been working on for months.  When I reflect, I can think of many of these gifts, but many I don't remember specifically,  but, I do remember that her heart was full of joy and love and she loved creating and giving something special to all of us.  Remember that when you are making something for someone special - it will be loved and it will create lifetime memories for them.


So, it's still November and I thought it only fitting to encourage and inspire you all to get cracking and embark on some Christmas projects.
