My wish to have a red and gold Christmas tree was granted this year by our resident elves, Jen and Christina. The ornaments they selected included named tree stockings made by my friend Steph. Each year Steph comes up with a new design, sending them to numerous friends and family. Each stocking is filled with chocolates and candy. It's great undertaking as the number of stockings has grown significantly over the years. This years delivery were a set of cute snowmen with a lopsided hat. You can read about her stocking production line on her blog.
The next set of ornaments are the Spellbound bead designs I've made up. This one is the Art Deco bauble.
This is the Net and Tassle bauble.I have a bit of a love and hate relationship with this particular bauble. I struggled to get a good fit on the net. As a result this bauble has a definite front and back because a piece of the red coating came off in the process.
Finally there is this red blob of beads, which I think is called Sputnik.
The small star was one of a trio and over the Christmas period I also completed the medium and large stars to go with it.
Graeme also came up with some decoration ideas to make using with his CNC router. These reindeer were very cute and went down a storm with the friends who received them.
We still have 2 from the herd and Graeme found a the perfect place to display them.
