Welcome 2011!

I hope that you had a wonderful Christmas!

As we greet the new year, I realize that the time has flown by and even though I felt so busy all year, there is so much more that I wanted to squish into 2010 before it ran out!  Besides being a fast year, it really was a delightful year for us.  I savor a feeling of contentment!  We are truly blessed with our two boys, who are growing like weeds, and making our days merry.  They amaze us every day with the way they are maturing, and we look forward to spending 2011 as we continue to see new adventures just around the corner.

It's late as I blog this evening, but I did want to participate in Beverly's Pink Saturday over at HowSweetTheSound.  I love her Pink Saturday!  Go on over and check out her pink this week.  In the meantime, here is my pink item for the week.

Happy New Year!  Here's to many wonderful days to come in 2011!

XO,

Christmas Is Soon!

This week has been one of Christmas activities; Christmas shopping, parades, concerts, and Christmas parties. Christmas is in full swing at our house! 


My overall, hands-down favorite part of the Season is to neatly package my handmade items to get ready to give or mail to loved ones.  I've been busy this week doing last minute creating too, (secretly getting special ornaments ready for my little Martial Art lovin' boys!)  I'll post photos of those ornaments later this week....but right now, it's Pink Saturday again with Beverly over at HowSweetTheSound, so here's a photo of my favorite pink this week.   


They come in other colors, so check out my etsy shop, but you've got to love this Cottage Pink Poinsettia!

With that, I'm off to finish my evening of crafting as I watch another sappy Christmas Movie.  My Christmas Season cannot be complete heart-touching holiday movies full of happy endings!  


Until next time.....
Warm Christmas Wishes,

Pink German Stars

Imagine a full Christmas Tree of Pink German Stars floating by clear thread, looking as though they are suspended in mid-air!   Magical!


Pink German Stars.  I have done these stars in every color, except pink, until now.  I'm not sure why I haven't ever made pink before, but now in celebration of Pink Saturday,...here they are!  They won't be my last!  I've just added them to my Etsy shop, too.  

If you love Pink, drop by and visit Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for Pink Saturday.   Beverly is all about pink, so check it out!   (She asked that we share a favorite recipe also, but honestly, my cooking isn't my strong suit.   I'd rather eat these paper stars!  He he he!)

Hopefully, I'll get a chance to blog again before next Saturday.......  Where is the time going!?


Warm Christmas Wishes,
Rebecca
