Christmas Crafting!

Busy, busy, busy!!!

I feel really disorganised this year but managed to get some Christmas pressies crafted!

Had some fun with preserves making spiced oranges and wicked Christmas pears, I just hope they taste OK will have to wait for the verdict!



We also made peppermint creams, honeycomb, candycane biscuits and star biscuits with boiled sweet windows!!




Finished with a ribbon and a scented paper mache star, the stars were made from shredded paper, cinnamon  cloves and orange peel!


I have crocheted several gifts as well, a hat, flower and pompom bookmarks and keyrings but my favourites were the slippers for my sister


I am quite pleased with my husbands new stocking!


We have also managed to squeeze in a spot of decorating, I managed to save a roll of retro/vintage wallpaper that was destined for a skip following a house clearance.


There was enough to do the chimney and a bit behind the shelves.


Happy Christmas!
