Christmas Advent House


I saw this gorgeous little advent calendar on a lovely blog called 'Floweline'. I haven't written the numbers on the tiny drawers yet as I don't have the perfect stamp but will do it as soon as I get one.
Each little drawer will be filled with tiny sweets and gifts
* * * * *
I have used beads and pins to make the drawer handles and have hung a metal angel embellishment under the eaves, and tiny silver hearts hand on each corner. I'll soon be making another one in more striking Christmas colours and have already bought my 24 boxes of matches!

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
