Christmas Crafts

I enjoy crafts -- all kinds of crafts.

Many times I see something and think

"I can make that!"

 

As Christmas was approaching

I saw a Bearded Beanie on the internet

and knew I had to have one for Bryan.

The price as over the top, so I made my own.

My children draw names and this year

Gwen got Brad's name.

I talked her into making Brad a quilt

using his Murray Wrestling & Football t-shirts

With lots of help from Brandon & Blake

the quilt turned out great and Brad loved it!

 

The last craft of the season

was an inspiration from Sarah's family.

Many years ago Sarah's grandmother had

made a Puzzle Nativity for each of her children's families.

Sarah wanted one of her own.
 
Ben and Bryan took the challenge of figuring out 

how to make the stable frame

and cut out the individual pieces.

We then spent several days painting and sealing them.

It was so fun to work with Alyse, Ben, Sarah and Bryan.

Each puzzle turned out darling.

(Wish I had pictures of all of them, here is mine.)
