Solstice celebration and Christmas preparations

Decorating cookies.

 Candlemaking, beeswax tapers.


 Compiling various homemade gifts, soap, candles, lotion, lip balm and felted purses and other creations.

I have never worked much with wool until this winter. The easiest quickest things to make ended up being purses. I wet felted sheets during the day and after the kids went to bed, I would needle felt, sew the sides and add a clasp or button. 



We celebrated solstice with a bonfire, marshmallows,  a few fireworks, glow rings and night sledding.

Happy late Solstice, Merry Christmas and best wishes for your Holiday Season!

Merry Christmas dear family - I feel like you are simply part of my family who lives very far away (LOL)...
