I have decided to challenge myself this year. As we all know the prices of things are just getting ridiculous so here is my challenge. I have decided that I am going to try and only use the items I already have here to make my ornaments. Trust I have a good bit. I will admit I did already buy a container of dressmaker pins, I was out for one of my ornaments planned. I will say that I found them dirt cheap though, $2. With that said I am going to try and not spend anymore other than postage. So let see if anyone else can do this. Who knows maybe this could lead to another type of swap in the future.
Here is a list of what I have to make things more exciting, of course its a short list because lets face it, dont want to crash the system. LOL Styrofoam balls, just a couple left from last year stickpins, glue gun, paint, glitter glue, strands of beads, seperae beads (those of you that know me I have tons of these) buttons, garland, berries, and assorted other craft items. Lets see what I can come up with. |

Why Dedemac you have a great memory. I have one of those spools left but did receive a box of stuff from my grandmother that has something in it that would work in a similar way. Seriously, what a memory.

Alrighty, lets see if we can get more of us on here to post. Time for a game. I am gonna write a word. The next person to post must write another word that starts with the last letter in my word, then the person after that continues with the next word. Lets see if we can keep all the words related to Xmas.
Here we go, my word is Christmas. |
Silver bells is one of my favorite Christmas songs. My word is santa.
