Deck the Blogs ONE. MORE. TIME.

Finally sharing a last round of Xmas ornies from last year. Last year, sounds so long ago. It's almost time to start thinking about holiday stuff again, right? RIGHT? ;O/

Pardon my sucky pictures. Did you ever just want to take the goshdarn picture even though it's like 5AM and you know it's gonna be blurry or washed out or weirdly non-lifelike? Yeah. Me too.

Beautiful star made by my daughter Eryn. LOVE!!

Eryn also made this ribbon wreath from an old ribbon spool. Another ribbon spool usage! I am so stealing this next year!

And to top off her adorableness, she made me a new popsicle stick reindeer like the one she made in third grade. How freakin' cute is that? You can't really tell the difference between the new one and the old one from like, 17 years ago. Popsicle stick reindeers: CLASSIC.

This was MY last Xmas creation, made with some thick felt trees I found at the thrift and some vintage (duh) buttons. I had an awesome plan to attach these to some distressed boards with button snow falling all around. Imagine it, isn't it purdy? Yeah, I never got that far.

Now I'll show you some of my wonderful pretties from artful Journey's ornament swap. I lucked out with some sweet artsy partners. This little angel came with her own sparkly box from Lisa-

 -as did this spool tree that I want to copy!! Lisa also made a beautiful hanging collage of a Christmassy front door embellished with delicious buttons, but I was ruthlessly packing stuff away before I remembered the photo op.

Look close to see the gold reindeer Molly made - I LOVE deer!! And glitter! And pink & blue & bows and, you get the idea.

Molly also made this cuter-than-puppies ballerina star...

...and the sweet blue & pink cupcake on the right. The cupcake on the left side was created by Peaches on Swapbot. :O)

And Robin made this eye candy...the Santa bottle is my fave, I had a hard time packing it away...

..since even the back was pretty!

This last goodie is also from a talented Swapbot partner, Heather. Two of my favorite things, Christmas and sugar skulls!

I'm sure I'll be done with the holiday stuff by...Valentine's day?
