Another little advent house...





This house is done in traditional Christmas colours and I've also added a chimney (cos Santa's going to need that!)



The drawer handles this time are made from brass split pins, which were so much quicker, easier and neater to use


I still haven't got a nice little stamp to put the numbers on the drawers tho! I think I might have been happier if I'd darkened the drawer fronts a little bit to match the red colours of the house.....

This picture frame was a challenge set by my sister, and one that I didn't really think through properly before I started, and so ended up looking exactly like most of my things do. I'm told it called `having a style` but sometimes I bore myself silly! The little doors on the card do actually close, which is nice, but pointless if there's a picture inside :)

I can rarely part with my ATC,s xx

...this tiny oval box measures just over an inch long.

...and this little heart shaped box is just the right size to hold 3 or 4 delicious chocolate truffles for a special someone ..x
