Christmas was nice.... I got my own hand made wooden sock to hang on the mantle with care!
Jack the rat really lucked out too ~ his own custom made sweater!
And a hand painted/decoupaged coaster for my tea cup ~ or as art only even!
Everytime I see pretty knit things... i start to think i want to knit too! I realize that this is not true of course, what i REALLY want is my own personal knitter ~ i pick out pretty yarn and point to what i want, and then it magically appears, that would really be better! I have come to realize that needle crafts of any kind are a strain on me.... sure i'll sew up an elf hat in a pinch... or cut out a hunk of fabric for a rabbit scarf ~ but lets face it beyond that it's more struggle then fun!
Hours have passed since I began this....the power just flickered....*eeek. We've gone for a walk in the snow with the dogs and come back again... and everyone is nestled in and fed.... :)))
Come on good people of blog land; lets stroll down Main Street in Wareham in a Noreasta' !!! Bundle up, it's startin' to blow! :)))))))

Oooh, I love these photos. Finally we get a chance to have a glimpse of your town. It looks pretty cold out there ... brrrrr... Poor Kipper, where is his hand-knitted coat?
ReplyDeleteThe wooden sock looks real. Hope you don't mix it up with your woolen socks...
This little jumper looks cool (no, warm) on Jack. You really know how to match colours, don't you?
Thanks for sharing Mel... ;-)
The photos of Maine Street are fantastic!!! And yes, it does look like cold..... just look at those little paw prints in the snow!!! Does Kip have to walk all the way?
ReplyDeleteOh, magical winter - I love it!! I know most people disagree. Snow for Christmas is okay, but please not a single day longer. But I love the cold and getting frozen fingers and coming home from a walk and warm up again with a cup of tea. We have snow for days now and I hope it will last much longer!! And I am glad you finally got snow, too. I am sure Ava and Marley enjoy it, but I am not too sure about little Kip... Maybe a little sweater for him next Christmas??
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid Kip would get all spoiled if he had a sweater... He's got to stay tough to hang with big dogs! Yes, he has to walk all the way, and all the way back too! he he he ~ doesn't seem to phase him in the least, he have callouses on those paws by the end of winter!
ReplyDeleteBRRRRRRRR, Melody. Main St. looks COLD.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and I hope your Mom still has her copy of the Desiderata, that would be a great keepsake for you.
All joys,

Happy New Year Melody. Your little rabbits look great on the header.
ReplyDeleteI just helped finish the thumbs and stitch up some wrist warmers for a friend when she got stuck with the pattern. Love yours and can see why you need them with all that snow, hope you are keeping warm.
Happy crafting for 2011. I will pop by and see what you are up to.
