Holiday Season

I absolutely love this time of year! There's a chill in the air, the smell of wood burning and Christmas decorations and music every where you go, I love it! I've been in and out of my craft room these past few months, my crafty mojo comes and goes, when it goes it's gone (on vacation!) but when it's here I'm on a roll (I have to take advantage of it while I can because I never know how long it will last - LOL!) I made a few items for the house I wanted to share. I have not really done any decorating so I'm just starting out. Terry got me an old window which I cleaned up, sanded and hung it on the wall, I love how shabby it looks. There was a little nail in the middle so I added a silver glittered wreath for a Christmas touch. It was bare at the top and needed something so I made a mini banner and added JOY felt letters and buttons.
Inspired by a photo on Pinterest I painted some mason jars and distressed them. The little cake stand was a find at an antique store. Not quite sure where the jars are going to go yet, I'm sure I'll find a spot as I decorate more.
And a few crafty cards and tags......
This was a request by a very sweet lady who wanted a shabby needle holder as a gift for a quilting friend. I never made one before so I winged it.
I made this card set using Papertrey Ink dies.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Annette
