Did You Survive Black Friday?

Some went, some conquered.  Some stayed, some slept!  (I was one who chose sleep over bargains.)  As you sit pondering your Christmas gift list, whether or not you shopped Black Friday, consider one of our Christmas crafts for that special someone who may be particularly difficult to shop for.  My motto?  If you can't shop for them, crochet for them!  Enjoy these holiday ideas for you or for someone else.

Please send us a picture of your results.  We love to see what you're up to!

We Have Turkeys On The Brain!

We debated posting an official turkey countdown, but quickly decided it would be a little over the top!  So instead, we have added these turkey themed projects to help get you in the turkey mood.  They are fun and easy and your kids can help!  (Which means you get a little rest while the kiddos are home for Thanksgiving break...ahh.)  Now if only the turkey would cook itself...

Vintage...Is The Word!

Add "Vintage" to your holiday theme this year and let us help you with some ideas for your gift list .  Since Victorian and Vintage are such fun words anyway, we thought you might be interested in some crafts that feature either one and will double as a heart-felt home-spun gift (especially for those extra-hard-to-buy-for loved ones)!

Remember to send us a picture of your results.  We enjoy seeing and sharing your efforts!
