My sister and I started working on jewelry for the Christmas show yesterday…and we got 31 pins made. We made 10 each of these mittens. I crocheted the fuzzy trim that we put on them.
We also made 10 Christmas stocking pins with little felt gingerbread men…and 1 pin with the snowman face and snowflakes on it. My sister painted the tiny details on each one of the gingerbread men.
Today I went antiquing and thrifting with a friend…I did find a couple of things that I’ll share soon. I also found some vases that I will be using for some snowman make-dos that I’m wanting to make for the show. I can’t wait to start working on them now that I have everything I need.
Going to leave you with this photo of someone who is impatiently waiting for her mommy to go to bed.
Ok Chloe….mommy is getting off the computer in a few minutes. Well, maybe it will be more than a few minutes. LOL…
Until next time….. blessings, Cindy

The pins look great! It must be so nice to have someone to work on these projects with you.
Chloe reminds me a lot of Sasha whenever I am on the computer. Right now she is cuddled right up to me on the couch snoring…. lol

Chloe is so precious! If I could have a dog….I would want one just like her! Maybe one of these days! Love your sweet pins…especially the little mittens! ♥

The pins are so cute! How fun that you and your sister work on them together. I wish my family was closer, I miss that about my sisters and nieces. Enjoy that time that you craft together! Oh, and I love the crocheted fuzzy trim, it really completes the mittens and stockings.
Chloe is very patient and very sweet! When my schnauzer doesn’t get the attention he wants, he pushes his way to my face and sits there waiting for me to give him a good rub. If I’m painting or stitching, he pushes on my arm until I move it for him to get in my face, haha.
