Project 365 Tue 10 Nov 09

GETTING READY FOR CHRISTMAS
Christmas is only six weeks away.

Where has the time gone?

I was so scared when I sat down with the calendar and counted out the weeks ... and it seems even closer with Wini living overseas because I have to mail stuff to her with enough time to make sure she gets it before Christmas.

And it's even more important because I decided to make some stuff for her.


Just a taste of what I'm making ... the paper, paints and other stuff.

However, it's not really going that well ... I sat down over the weekend and was very industrious. I got the project half finished before I discovered that it wasn't easy to put it together and dismantle it.

Not happy ... because it actually looked good! LOL

And I wasn't thrilled at starting over again.

But I've torn it all apart, stripped off the paper and everything is sanded down for a second try.

Hopefully this time success!

I'm glad I started this in plenty of time to post by the end of November for Wini to enjoy.
