and... presto!

i'm all done with my swap package for the { SavVy } Season swap ( just in the nick of time too!! ). this was a super fun one to make for me!! i just lOVE Ashley's string block tutorial and i think it lent itself to my "Candy Cane" themed table runner perfectly!!

I also finished Mr. Band and Mrs. Algebra Zip Bags!!

now... back to candle making!! You're gonna cry when you see how cute my latest batch came out!! ( okay, that was probably an over statement... ) LOL

funnist day ever!

yes, i know "funnist" isn't a real word, but yesterday it really was in my land!! we had our Yam-Christmas Party and it was amazing... more photo's to come! But, i wanted to finally share what my main gift was to my sister Yam Violet...

we all decided it was very "good" for her gift, that i've had a lot of extra time to hand sew!! hahaha...

heaven...

nothing says, "it's time to relax" like Lavender! Ever since my dear friend Mo made me a lovely Kashmir eye pillow/ sachet for my birthday this year, i have been in love with them! they are Yummy with a capital Y!!!

so, i thought it only fitting that i make them for all my children's teachers and aids for their Christmas gifts this season!! :) i purchased Lavender buds & oil at this little Etsy shop and filled my pot with a medley of rices...

it smelled amazing!!

i love my boys!

i just love them and want to keep them super safe!! that's why all my boy's will be receiving first aid kits this Christmas using this pattern ( of course! ). i used fusible interfacing to give the zipper bag a firm, clean look that won't leave my men feeling like a bunch of ladies!! hahaha...

and how clever is it when an artist puts together these darling additions for all your projects??... UUUuummm... fantastically clever!!!

i hope they love them!!

have a fabulous weekend my friends!! i'm off to watch the boys cut down a tree and celebrate my oldest 14th birthday!! :)
