Gabrielle's decorating the tree...

Hello there!

It's the 15th of the month so we've reached the midway mark!  Where does the time go to?  If you're going to have a busy week then take a breath, grab a cuppa and take a look at Gabrielle's second make for this month before you jump into the day...




The theme this month is Nostalgic Christmas and this got me thinking nostalgically...! When I was a child we would make Christmas decorations for the tree and I thought I might make one for our tree this year. The base is an Art Part and I added a stamped wreath and a little sparkle! The ribbon is a little sari fabric and I will retie the bauble on the tree when it has been chosen from the Christmas tree shop! We have a tradition in our house  that my husband takes my son to buy a tree that is the same height as our son and then my daughter and I decorate it! Funny what traditions you have isn't it?! If you would like more details on how to make this bauble, my blog has all the information! Gabrielle x



A gorgeous tree decoration Gabrielle, nostalgic for so many of us, thank you!

If you're planning on joining us for this challenge do remember that you can enter right up until 5 minutes to midnight on New Year's Eve!  We'd like to see as many nostalgic Christmas makes as you can muster. 

More on Wednesday and this time, from our clever Jennie!

Have fun out there!
