So it's not the first of December. And it doesn't fit the song. Or ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas. Unless I continue to 21.
"21 Chocolate Covered Cherries..."
I may actually do this. It could be a new tradition. A post a day at Christmastime! ANYWHO. This weekend, in spite of my very best intentions, I got NO sewing done. (Tissue bodice admiring, yes). That doesn't mean the weekend was totally wasted! For example, yesterday I made another ornament for my tree.
May I present to you, Castiel, Angel of the Lord:
Since it's quite probable you have absolutely no idea who that is...Castiel is the angel on the tv show Supernatural. His besties are Dean and Sam:
If you look to the right of Castiel on my tree, you might recognize those two... It's Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy. Complete with sideburns. *swoon*
Or do you prefer Colin Firth? (Who doesn't?? No really. I'm curious. Who prefers the remake over the BBC Pride and Prejudice? Anyone?)
Before Dean and Sam, I must, MUST, make Mary and Matthew:
*Swoon* again.
These are my favorite ornaments to put up every year. I have 8 now, including little Castiel. I used the templates from the Martha Stewart website. There's also a video clip of the Christmas special segment where she and a coworker made the little ornaments. One of my very favorite episodes of Martha Stewart; I still have it recorded on VHS!
I also made my Christmas cards this weekend and sent those off to the photo lab. I love to send Christmas cards, even though I rarely get any in return. WHY don't people send cards anymore? It's such a sweet little cheery envelope in my mailbox in December.
You know what we should do?? We should have a bloggy Christmas card exchange. Quick! Somebody make a yahoo group and we can all enter our mailing addresses and swap cards. Let's do it!
And now it's Monday again. SIIGHHH.
