While the rest of the country is being pounded with unseasonable amounts of fluffy white stuff, this is still as close to snow as it gets here in Hawaii. Yesterday I cut out some paper snowflakes and plan on doing a tutorial for you, but I have to touch up all the walls of our house with paint first, and repaint the kids' rooms because the color in there is anything but neutral, and hem the drapes...
So for now I just have time to quickly post these little lovelies. I'm using my husband's laptop, and the color on his monitor is decidedly different than the monitor that is now all packed up and waiting in a crate somewhere, so I just wanted to post a little disclaimer on the color of these pics. I have no idea what they really look like!
I adore snowflakes, I could make them for hours. I probably would have made a lot more yesterday, but I ran out of paper. I had set aside a big pile of white paper before the movers came because I knew I wanted to do this project, but between all of us we have depleted the whole stack. Time to go beg a few sheets off the neighbors so I can do a step by step tut for you!
I just love the infinite variety of snowflakes, both the real kind and the paper versions. No two will ever be exactly alike.
Let it snow, Let it snow!!!
I also wanted to show you the, um, exhuberant gingerbread bows I made for Eliza a few years ago. They're very festive, eh? A little on the large side, but Eliza likes to wear them at Christmas time.
I'll try hard to get that tutorial for the snowflakes done before Christmas! Thanks, by the way, for all the wonderful comments you have left in regards to the bag giveaway. It is SO much fun to read what you have to say, I really enjoy hearing from you. Just a few more days until I draw a lucky winner!
So pretty!
