Stars, Cookies and Laughter~

A roll of wrapping paper, some Christmas ribbons and many tries at fabric stars. Make some beautiful creations! Friends, cookies coffee and laughter.....what a fun night! I am so blessed to have such wonderul friends and family. More Moravian stars and boxes in all colors and sizes. I have a few photos from tonight. Will be snapping photos of the finished stars and boxes in the morning.

One Big Star

So we have been making Moravian stars for a craft fair and to sell online. Hubby and oldest son get an idea to make a huge one. Thinking I may use it for attention at the craft fair.....Here is the results!

My Newest Creations!

These are the first of my holiday creations. Boxes will be 4 for $6 with free shipping. The Moravian Stars will be $3.50 each with freee shipping. I also make the boxes out of any kind of paper you would like. I have children's books I salvaged from the basement of a library. I am going to be getting scrapbooking papers and any request you may have. Email me!

Happy People

The reason people find it hard to be happy is because they see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it would be.
