i haven't had a lot of time to do crafty stuff, but i plan to get creative for the next few weeks for the holiday season.

here are a few things on my list:
*decorate the house for christmas
*stacking/knock-down toy for thad (cover cans with felt and embellish)
*neck pillows for the older two (planned for last year, but never done)
*advent calendar (need to get on that one asap)
*elisa's christmas skirt (or dress? haven't decided yet)
*owl aprons for my co-workers
*bean bags for a co-worker, and some for thad
*finish hot pepper apron for a friend
*mail knitted scarves to the grandmas
*knit super-soft throw for thad
*knit diaper covers for photog friend
*photo shoot of kids for christmas cards
*photo shoot friend's kids for her christmas cards
*make said christmas cards and send off to be printed
*lots of baking, candy making, etc.
*paint/repair cedar chest and dresser freebies i acquired
*make jammies for thad, nick and elisabeth...maybe jerry and i too!

there are oh-so-many things i want to do, i need to be more focused and make more time to do it! time to get off the computer so i can get to work...maybe i'll actually accomplish some things to photograph so i can post about them!
