Thinking Christmas

It has been almost a month since my last post and I have been focused on making some quilled paper ornaments that I hope will sell at the Wynndel Christmas Craft Fair on Dec. 2. I have managed to do one mixed media piece with quilling and watercolour...

... but the rest? See for yourselves.

    These look great, love the Christmas ornament designs. The hummers are always popular too I bet and I like you did them with different papers. Val, I am posting several places as you know, please don't feel like you have to comment on all. I still enjoy my blog and have had it for so many years without trouble, until lately, then I have to go private and now it's back. But look/comment whether it is most comfortable for you.

      Thank you Joan. I am having fun doing the quilling so that is always a bonus and selling is just icing - lol.

      Thanks Win. I have another rooster on the go as they seem to be a popular subject. Fingers crossed that all these things I am making actually sell!
