Creativity can be catching!

Post by Nimuae »

Had a lovely day out and a delicious lunch with a friend - came home feeling full of inspiration! In the fond hope that we might actually have a Christmas this year I have made some table (or anywhere else) decorations.

Made from silver mirror card and rainbow colour card with a dusting of glitter!

LOL - I know it seems too early to think about Christmas - but - I am on the 'waiting list' for further surgery on my left eye - so they can put right the mess they made first time round! Had a letter from the consultant outlining everything that could possibly go wrong - including losing the sight of that eye - so this is what you might call forward planning. Have managed to make all my cards and most of my gifts so far - thought these decorations would be fun. Have made four of them - the bauble - as in the photo, and one each of snowflake, parcel, and fir tree. They were fiddly - but fun - to make!

Odds are - I will put them 'somewhere safe' and forget where that is by Christmas!!

:D We did that with the pin numbers for our first bank cards. Of course we promptly forgot the numbers, and where we'd hidden them, so, had to get new cards. Found them some 10 years later when we moved house.

See, in this house, Lady P puts my stuff in safe places and I have to guess where.
