Twas the Day before Christmas……

December 23, 2010 By Spoonful of Sugar - 34 Comments

… and all through the house there was an air of excitement and anticipation as we put the finishing touches to our Christmas preparations.

The Christmas table has been set….

Decorated cookie ornaments have been packaged up….

Gifts have been wrapped……

Stockings are in position…..

..the carols are playing, and the kitchen smells divine.

We would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, and peace and joy in 2011.  Thank you so much for stopping by during the year to follow our sewing, crafting, and baking journey. We really appreciate all the kind comments, emails, and support you have shown us throughout the year. We look forward to sharing more with you in 2011.

Hope your Christmas is an extra special one, filled with family, friends, and good times.

Be Merry…       Lisa & Sarah xx

    Hello and Merry Christmas! I tried sending an email but gmail came back and said that the address above doesn’t exist (!). I’m wondering if there is a pattern for the little black and white make-up bag from 12/22. I have been searching for instructions on a bag with binding at the top, just like that one. If you can let me know, that would be great.
    Thank you!

    Beth
