Busy Bee!

Busy. Busy. Busy.

I feel like a busy little bee these days.  How is Thanksgiving next week???

I made these pretty stockings for a custom order.  I made lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of rosettes....  by hand!  Do you know that making rosettes by hand can make you loopy?

They were so pretty, I pretended that they were real flowers and took pics of myself with them in my hair...  Where exactly can a grown woman wear a giant rosette in her hair(Hawaii?)???  If you figure out where I can wear it, let me know...  I am sooooooooooo in love with them!  



I made about a bazillion rosettes to see which color looked best...




So, I tried the different colors out and I think we are going with the white (though I love the tea stained for the customer's boys and the white for her girl). They are just too beautiful and I wish my pics really showed all their depth and beauty!

And these stockings are big...  I think the pics make them look small, but they are 9" wide at the top...  Room for lots of stuff!  If you want some for your family, message me on FB (http://www.facebook.com/LittleBrownCasita)

I am currently working on an advent calendar (a surprise for someone who reads this blog, so if is you, please pretend I am not writing this!!!).

 I have chicken in the crockpot and have only about an hour before the boys are home, so I better get back to it!  I am going to post a how to on the advent calendar, so stay tuned this week...
Buzz!  Buzz!

Have a great one!
