It's one week until the shipping deadline (dec 21st!) so if you've been procrastinating now is the time to get going!

Happy crafting!

Another Christmas tree cone

I had one more cone so I decided to make a light up one.

My LED light was on the verge of dying, so it doesnt show that bright. But once I get a new LED tealight, it will be bright and shiny. Glitter sealed and only took about a half hour to make. An hour if you count the wait time for the paint and sealer to dry. Now its on the shelf with the other cone trees I made.
Happy crafting holidays!

Great Bluedini and Lost in Atlantis

Here are some beads made with some amazing blue-green glasses. These are sets of beads, not finished pieces. They were handmade by me in a torch.

Christmas wreaths

[starry-diadem.livejournal.com]

I've been making glittery wreaths for my internal doors.  These are very simple - cheap, shiny flattish Christmas ornaments hot-glued to my thumb a simple florists wreath.  (Edited to add): I won't claim credit for the idea as these are a variant of something I saw online. The online one was much more solid, so all I can claim here is something with a little more delicacy.  But they're great fun to make
