Family time

I can't believe Christmas is a few days away! It's already the end of 2012 which is a bit insane! I haven't had a chance to blog lately, thankfully I've been busy fulfilling orders this time of year! I have crosses coming out my ears...not really but you get the crafters picture!
We are headed home for Christmas tomorrow so we got to have our little family Christmas this morning! The one morning Jaxen could getaway waking up early we had to wake him up at 8:30! Finally he woke up and we read the Christmas story then opened our gifts. I'm so thankful we have him! Christmas is way fun with kiddos!!! I'll attach a few pictures of my recent orders. (Yes the teal/brown cross is off centered on purpose) Hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

Crafty Crosses and Hairy Beards

Today is December 6...barely, but still December 6!  This is our first winter in Texas and I must say so far it isn't barely fall yet!  We've been enjoying our 70-80 degree weather since, well, since the 90-100 degree weather.  I will say it is odd plugging the Christmas tree in when the a/c is still on in the house!  I do hope I get to wear a coat at some point!  I'm sure we will eventually!  We'll be going to Oklahoma and Missouri for Christmas so hopefully we'll see snow then!  I would love for Jaxen to play in it!
Lately I've been making custom cross orders.  My new thing is painting and assembling these crosses.  They're so fun to make because I get to put each buyers personality into their cross!  I originally made mine for the house not assuming to sell them, but one thing led to another and now here we are 12-15 custom orders later and loving it!  I will say bigger crafts take bigger time but also make bigger money, so give and take! I'll post a few pictures of the most recent ones. 



This was my handsome husbands beard growing abilities for the month of November!  Isn't he charming!
