We're getting there.



I finished one garland and hung some silver stuff last night, so finally things are beginning to look a little like the Christmas I wanted it to be. Still no snow in the forecast (there will never be snow in the forecast here, but I could definitely get used to this weather, where the whole winter is that one perfect mid-October day, cloudless and crisp but warm in the sun. Yeah, we got it tough around here).



These ornaments will be hung on the wall (they're pretty big), after another garland materializes out of that pile of felt scraps which has been growing on the couch. More pics when they actually make it on the wall.



I'm halfway done making a bunch of small ones, which will go on whatever Charlie Brown branch or felt tree we end up having. I'm hurrying tonight to finish up, since school starts tomorrow and we have a party to attend tonight. Somehow I don't think I'll make it in time, but hey -- what else do I have on board for this weekend?

Hope you're humming a Christmas carol for me tonight. xo.
