I love Christmas. We got our tree a couple days after returning from Thanksgiving at the beach. It’s the only holiday that gets my full-fledged attention for decorating. I made a wreath out of the tree trimmings, I have a cheesy glittery JOY plant stake that I show off from the patio. Christmas is the only acception to my glittery policy, but still only in moderation. If glitter appears on my face, it’s not ok. If it stays confined to the item it’s decorating, then ok. No other glitter is allowed, for the rest of the year. For after all,
I found a site called Spoonflower, which is based in Mebane, NC. (Which is where the preacher who married Lindel and I lives.) You can upload your own designs and they will print it on fabric for you. That’s so awesome. I really loved carving and block-printing my own designs, but this would be really good for any entricate details that would just be too hard to carve. I’ve uploaded a few, but mostly stuff that I have already carved and printed. I think I’m going to make a very detailed pattern and order some fabric from there.
