Readying For The Holidays




The "Season Of Thanks" is almost upon us...

The Pilgrims are dressed for the feast...

The candles are lit...
The out of town guests are ready for travel.

So much to do, so little time.

Oh, no! I'm not ready!!

I know, it's only the first week of November. But have you noticed that holiday decorations and merchandise has been in stores since September?!?! 

My retail booth is in transition between Thanksgiving, Christmas and restocking my regular primitives and kitchen collectibles. In addition to paper ephemera, I also like to feature handmade goodies and one of a kind up-cycled creations. So my craft room, kitchen table, and every available inch of space is in a state of flux, glitter and glue all over the place, projects everywhere.

My ever messy desktop

Ideas becoming real...
It's been snowing glitter on my desktop!
Mini tart tins waiting for the magic to happen...

Will be you be ready for the holidays?

(Does this guy look like Ed Asner, or am I delusional?)

Crafting away,

~Susan
