christmas creating...

for the last 3 years I have made something 'new' for our Christmas decorations and pretties...in an effort to get away from plastic baubles etc (nothing wrong with em! just wanting someting a bit more handcrafted)...so the year before last, I made sweet little bird ornaments out of re-purposed fabrics and wool batting, last year I made new table runners and clothes, felt hearts.

.
this year I have made this wee angel garland out of a re-purposed woolen blanket, old crochet doilie and ribbon...and then as I had lots of pretty ribbon left I thought I would up-date the inside wreath....so would love to have finished all the other things I had planned, but are also in the middle of packing to move so, yeah, not gonna happen this year!
