my creative space: christmas stockings and gift tags

Well, it's a busy day today with Amelie's swimming lesson, my 20 week scan, general kid wrangling and getting organised for a bonus day at work tomorrow, doing a day's relieving in one of the classes I teach in on a Tuesday.
Crafting wise, I'm working on two christmas stockings for a friend's two little girls at the moment and I've finished two as well- one for Amelie and one for a friends baby girl.
 
And if I get a chance I'm going to make some more christmas gift tags, including a few for my crafty christmas giveaway I'm having soon!
Visit Kirsty's at Kootoyoo for more creative spaces....I'm loving seeing all the creative christmas ideas out there in blogland!
Thanks for visiting!

  2. Love the stockings! Can't decide whether to cheat and buy one for my baby boy or use my terrible sewing skills to try and make one!

  10. Megan - I LOVE those christmas stockings! I was thinking about making some for our wee family too.. you've inspired me now!

    Also, if you're still looking for that great shade of bright yellow you were telling me about - I found a great one. Look up Resene "Wild Thing". It's such a great colour!

    Good luck for your scan too - are you going to take a sneaky peak? :D
