Day 10 – Santas – lots of them!
I will keep this blog post short, as it is already after 10pm, and I am fading fast!
Just a typical busy day today – school and playgroup pickups and drop-offs, went to Post Office, some more Christmas shopping (nearly finished), got car fixed, did some ironing (no-where near finished), took my daughters to the hairdressers, helped with homework, made tea, bathed son then out to a meeting a church tonight.
Today’s photo is of my “nesting” Santas. I have always loved those Russian dolls, and am particularily fond of this set.
Next I will quickly share a gift card holder I made last night using Weeds & Wildflowers A Winter Holiday kit. I hope to be able to share soon the template for this, but as yet it has not been posted on the appropriate blog.
As I have a number of gift cards to give as presents to neices and nephews, I hope to make a selections of these. I love it when I can find another application for my passion for digital scrapbooking.
On with the Christmas Survey…..
Do you get a real Christmas tree, or is it artificial?
As a child we always had real trees, but since I have been married, articial all the way. I do like the smell of a real tree, and I know there are lots of new varieties now which last longer, and shed less needles, but I suspect we will stick with the artifical ones. What about you?
That’s all folks.
Take care until tomorrow
Your christmas card holders are so cute! I would love to have the template for those! We got a real tree for several years but right now I have an artificial tree that looks fairly real so I’m happy!
I also made this cardholder..really love the template. I love how your cut the card..I will try this some other time!
We also have a artificial tree.. I too miss the smell of a real tree but this one stays beautiful till the end. In Holland we keep the trees till the first week of January..so that’s quit some time!
these giftcards are awesome! so great!
Those card holder things are so awesome! Love the Santas too 🙂

I have been soooooo enjoying your Christmas blog postings… the survey and the photos give me a wonderful glimpse of Christmas in Ireland… Thanks for sharing. We have an artifical tree but hang up a fresh wreath to get that pine smell in the house.
PS: I hope George makes it home soon!
