Sweets

Our kitchen table is cover

 with sweet treats from neighbors and friends.

 Really love how people can make

 creative and yummy treats of all kind ,

 and there is me.... buying my treats,

then I just place in a pretty container

and when people ask me if I made the treats

 I just smile.... 

Very Merry...

So much to love about December...some of my favorite things are always handmade and I really enjoy making them...
My Red Room is a disaster at the moment,
 because I have several projects going.
 I have made several things lately
and all without spending $$.
 Just using what I have, but of course I do have a closet full
....of crafty things.

Thanksgivings...heartfelt moments.

We all love the Holidays

 mostly because it give us the opportunity

 to gather as a family and be together with wonderful friends.

 A couple days before, I found a great recipe for  "candy jams"  and gave it to Krystel since it is her favorite Thanksgivings dish.
Over the weekend we had Angie with us.

 My bff that is now living in Chile with her new love

 and was here for a visit.

 How fun it is to spend all night talking and catching up.

She brought the girls beautiful sweaters from "La Ligua".

 A place in Chile that has marvelous artisans

 and where handmade things are a must..

So grateful for life and love ones.

A little book for a baby boy.

A baby book is always fun and creative,

 even when I have to admit

that baby girls books are much easier to make,

 because it is so much pink and cuteness available in the scrapbooking world.

 I've been thinking about making this book since I found out that sweet Ashley was having a baby boy.

She send me a pic of a quilt that she was working on a month or so ago with blues and browns and it was somehow and inspiration for the colors of the book.

 Can't wait to see it with pictures soon.

 Work is so hectic at this time of the year and a few hours at my red-room creating something fun as this is all I need to feel refresh and to clear my mind from it all.

Witches Tea Party

Every year my friends Claudia and Julie host a "Witches Tea Party". This year it was eight of us and lost of delicious things with plenty of Halloween decor.

I was "Flora" for the party, that was my Witch name...
