Making:
~ inspired by this, I quickly knit up a little lantern girl for our Martinmas celebration a few weeks ago
~ Reece's Winter Solstice hat...a tradition I really love
~ a milo in the works for a little one who arrived on the weekend
~ a custom order for Schoolhouse Toys...school buses
~ a set of Waldorf math gnomes...another custom order
~ Reece and I have been experimenting with our wet on wet watercolour, adding a little salt when we are finished painting, kinda looks like snow, don't you think?
Listening:
~ it has been all Christmas around here lately and we are enjoying every minute of it
What have you been making and listening to this week?
Joining Dawn
Oh, the knitting and felt projects. So wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThe school bus is so cute!
Salt with watercolor is like magic. I love how that works! Looks so neat!
We usually start Christmas music after American Thanksgiving. But I have been hearing it here and there out in the world. It does bring a smile.
Thanks for joining in this week!
Thanks Dawn. We wait until after Martinmas and then start the Christmas music :)
