Wrapper Extraordinaire
Guess who is helping wrap the gifts?
No not Andy. . .
She was so awesome at it and really got into it. She didn't quite understand the concept of tape and that it was to hold things down, she would just put it anywhere. She did love those bows.
You can catch a little glimpse of the Christmas tree skirt I made this year. The holly leaves and berries are supposed to go all the way around but I didn't have the time. I definitely bit off more than I could chew this year in regards to making gifts. Maybe I can add some holly leaves each year and by the time the girls graduate from high school it will be finished. It's made out of felt and I stole the idea from Restoration Hardware and it actually turned out great.
One of those rare moments when I copy an idea and it actually works out and it was cheap. Now if I can only get it finished. . .

I could have her on the afternoon greyhound! She's a real big helper!
We'll get you hooked up with a tree skirt, its sooo easy! Maybe we can sew holly leaves together while we're sitting pool side in Cancun! :)

I am super impressed with the tree skirt! And with your letting Lizzie help you wrap - way to let go of a little control! Can you teach me how????
