while I was setting out decorations for Christmas I came across snowflake cards that I’ve saved over the years…

I decided to put them up on the bathroom door and they looked pretty good…

today, I was doing a little crafting – embroidering a couple of gift tags that were part of my Happy Mail for Chocolate Lovers envelope…

once I finished that, I felt inspired to put a frame around the snowflake cards… used some of the washi tape that my daughter has sent me over the years…

might have been better with a wider frame, but there wasn’t enough of the tape…

fun to do a bit of work with my hands…

today I started turkey soup and worked on a craft project which my daughter gave me for Christmas…

the soup has simmered all day and soon I will separate the broth from the meat…

the crafting was fun… started with a box…

opened it to discover everything I would need to produce a Ferrero Rocher tree…

took out the bits and pieces…

pretty cool set up… way better than glueing them together, lol…

couple of levels done…

nice, eh… okay, okay, so all I did was put the chocolates on the layers, but it looks great…

my kind of craft… will use it as the centrepiece for New Year’s dinner…

I love Ferrero Rocher, but shouldn’t be eating them… will be great to have my family’s assistance in getting rid of them, lol… they are very helpful that way…
