    Default My Christmas Crafting

    I'm in a very crafty/decorating mood lately and have been making lots of Holiday decorations and Christmas presents. My asthma has been flaring for about 3 months now, and I have to spend most of my time at home to avoid anything that could set me off, and because the cough syrup that I need to be on nearly constantly (doctor's worried I'm going to crack a rib from coughing) has vicodin in it, which pretty much prevents me from driving anywhere, so I think that's why I'm in a making things mood.

    Snowflake Light Blocks: I made two of these, which are in the large window in our front room. Since they are just winter themed, I figure that I can leave them up for quite a while.



    Hummingbird quilt blocks for my Mom - these are made from QuiltMagic kits.

    This one is about 6x6:


    This one is about 12 x12:



    And finally, my plastic bag Christmas wreath - I'm currently making more of these to hang on many of the doors in the house, so I may be back to post more pics of the different ones soon. These are so inexpensive to make. Supplies for this one cost me $7, and it took me about an hour to an hour and a half.



    Thanks for looking!
