Little pegs need a little peg bag.

Big peg bag little peg bag

This was a present for Mum who, the week before christmas, asked if I could get her some little pegs from the market to put cards up with.

A pot of little pegs
 
Then a little pile of yummy scraps used for a different present (yet to be shared!), suddenly had a reason to be put together to make a miniature peg bag for the new pegs.

I used exactly the same method as for the larger peg bag, explained here, except on a smaller scale and found a plastic hook that had been on a bag of socks at some point.

Seasons Greetings

Holidays are here so I'm off to wrap and eat and play.
 
I'm also going to have a go at one of these beauties over at Michele made me. I think that her ideas are so clever and they just keep on coming.
 
Will post some of the gifts that couldn't be shared after christmas, but for now..


Family Christmas cards

Happy Christmas.

I have a Tomte!

Last christmas I bought my Mum this book by Kajsa Wikman over at the blog Syko, and dropped a less than subtle hint,
 that I would really like a Tomte!
 
And here he is..

I have a Tomte! Made by Mum from book called Scandinavian Stitches by Kajsa Wikman. He is sitting on a branch with Evie.
 
Sitting on a branch with Evie the Elf, two pointy hats together.
I love him.
Thanks Mum.
