What I enjoy about the new job is the amount of craftiness that goes into the products they sell and displays. I have taken it upon myself to be crafty for Christmas, on one of my only full days off of work. Here's what I accomplished.
1. Fancy Garland. I got this one from my work. They took regular strings of lights and made them interesting with some strips of different fabrics tied on. From the fabric store, I bought a few different fleeces in varying textures, as well as some satin for some variety, and went to town. I cut the strips up and tied them on randomly and viola! Beautiful lighted garland. I love it.
2. Personalized Stockings. I found adorable little stockings at Target that I wanted to personalize, since two of them are the same color (they were the last three left). I got some yarn for super cheap at Arc's Valley Village (score!) and braided them together, then gluing it to the stocking. Turned out lovely.
3. Binky Bib. I also saw this one at my work's sister store Oh Baby! Since my nephew Henry isn't very good at keeping his pacifier in, I took matters into my own hand and crafted a bib myself. He loves it, and he's stinkin' cute. Merrrry Christmas :)
Isn't he darling! Anyway, expect more posts sooner, I promise it won't be another two months and I have scheduled craft days coming up! Happy New Year to all.
