Winter Critter Stuffies

Cloth Paper Scissors had a contest to create various critters for the fall/winter season. This gave me a reason to CREATE! CREATE! CREATE! and SEW! SEW! SEW!
Here are my creations:
Nora Claus (named after a Menorah and Ms. Claus)

Diva Angel Snow (she's a snow angel diva, of course)

Happy Hattie (a smiling hat)

Happy Holidays!!






Assignment #1: Write Your Goals & Values

JessicaSprague.com is having a special Holiday class titled "Holidays In Hands" and I've signed up!!! Nothing like adding more To-Do's to December's checklist...but this is suppose to declutter my month, so I'm ready...plus it's a great way to get my blog started.

The first assignment is to write down our goals and values we want to achieve by taking this class. Here is my list (short n' sweet):

1) Learn to enjoy (and I mean ENJOY) the holidays versus stating "My, where did the time fly".


2) Truly invest time and learn about my family members and my ancestry. I know very little about even how my parents met and got engaged, etc. I'm excited to learn all about it & take notes.

Assignment #2 is to commit 20 minutes a day to this project - CHECK!

Assignment #3 is to get organize...working on that one. She did share a great tool to use from Organized Christmas at christmas.organizedhome.com/printable/christmas-planner


(and hopefully we can squeeze falling in love into the mix)
