This month I added some Holiday Spirits Labels, to the free printables section and 2 new video projects, Danish Christmas Dinner Tutorial by SugarCharmShop and How to make miniature Christmas lights, by The Crafty Crow.

I recently began working on a Christmas themed dollhouse and I hope to get some pictures up soon. I haven't forgotten the follower giveaway, I've been so busy I just haven't had time. I will be back later with more about that!

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Welcome New Followers

It's time to welcome more new followers! Early this morning I caught Matilda in one of my Christmas room boxes. She hauled in a bunch of goodies I've been saving and she had been unpacking it all, wrapping presents, decorating an old tree and writing out Christmas cards! She even found the tin of cookies I got from Cathy over at The Fabulous Farmhouse. She was just getting ready to sit back and read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and have herself a little snack, when I caught her. She had the audacity to look right at the camera when I took her picture, she was very happy with herself, I swear she's smiling. The only way she would agree to put everything away and not eat all the cookies, was if I posted her picture again and let her help greet the new followers. I agreed so I could get my tin of cookies back! So, Matilda and I would like to welcome, Mary Williams of Mary Williams Dollshouse Dolls Blog, and Mary Williams Miniature Porcelain Dollshouse Dolls, next we have Angeles, of Las pinturas de Baldu & El rincon de Baldu, and there is Daisy, she has four blogs, MINIATURAS 1/12, LOJA DE ARTESANATO COLONIAL 1/12, DAISY ARTES, DAISY'S MINIATURAS 1/12, & Arantxa of the blog Las miniaturas de los Talis. Irene of Apples Tea Rooms, Hambleton Hall, & The Tenement, and three that I can't find a blog for, T Pompeo, darstesh & Joy - Adora Bella Minis. If you have a blog, please let me know so I can post a link!

Thank you for following! Now I have to go convince Matilda that it's time to clean up, wish me luck.

Christmas Ornament Project

I posted a tutorial about how to make Christmas ornaments from polymer clay, on my website. I bought some cute holly leaf craft slices from Angie Scarr Miniatures and this is one of the projects I used them for. They are simple to make, the hardest part was getting the hang of the little "hanger" part, but the more I made, the better I got. I made mine a little big, to fit the craft slice. I used red, green and translucent clay, I really like the way the translucent ones turned out.

If you haven't seen the beautiful 1950s Inspired Aluminum-look Christmas Tree, made by De from De-Lightful Minis, you really should go take a look. It is fantastic!

Christmas Projects , Printables & What Was I Thinking?

I bought these gift boxes last year for $10 at Wal-Mart with the intention of whipping out 3 Christmas themed room boxes a couple of weeks before Christmas. HA! What was I thinking? I doubt that I'll get around to them this year either but I may give it a shot. In the meantime I thought I would share some links to Christmas projects, printables, videos and more.
