The Christmas Shoppe is still going!

I love soy candles, so I decided I would make some for Christmas as presents for my family and friends.


I looooooooooooooooove the way they turned out. Some are in travel tins, others in vintage looking amber apothicary jars... all topped with mod-podged papers in cool designs.

... and too bad there is no "scratch and sniff" Internet 'cause they smell yummy! My favorite scent is Orange Sherbet but I also love Citrus Basil.

I also made some in French Vanilla and Cappuccino.... hummmmm.... tasty!

Christmas Shoppe, part 2!

For handmade Cristmas gifts for my 8 and 10 year old nieces, I chose to paint t-shirts... Ladybug for the oldest, and kitty for the young one. I mixed a little glitter in the paint so it would be all sparkly and girly!

My own little Christmas Shoppe!

I decided that this Christmas I would make all my family and friends' presents by hand. I make jewelry, so I've got a few people covered... but what about the KIDS... and worse, what about the BOYS?

Well, my first new venture has been to make monster plushies for my friends' kids... and I have to say that they turned out really cool! They are nice monsters, mind you, they just want to cuddle and make you smile!
