The Girls!

We new it was going to happen so we wired the tree to the window. Sophie got right in when we were putting the lights on.

Then today I noticed the tree was tilting a little to the left and shaking a bit. I said Sophie get out of the tree but when I went over guess who was looking at me?

Lucy wasn't happy when I lifted her out of there .

Here is how I saw them when I looked up from my breakfast today.

Aren't they just the cutest?

LESSology Challenge #20 Barely There

Hi There, My project this month for LESSology Challenge #20 "Barely There" started with a glass jar.  I am starting to plan my Christmas gifts and I created this to hold some of my homemade peanut brittle.

Here is the jar. 

This is the lid.

This is how it ended up after a little bit of glass etching, some felt, ribbon and doodads.

Can you see the candy cane? There is a candy cane, a tree and a ginger bread boy etched in the class.

Here is the video telling how I made my gift jar.
