It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

My dad wants a real tree for Christmas. So instead of buying the usual artificial Christmas tree, he bought this really thin, young tree that didn't have much leaves on it! 

Sooo....

THE CHALLENGE: Make a limp tree look like a Christmas Tree


I dressed it up with Christmas light balls to create a homey and warm feel. I knew I could just have bought these from the department store.....but what's the fun in that?:)



The Process...







HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Tribute to an Angel

I miss making things for mom.

So now on her (supposed to be) 59th birthday, I use my hands again to say a simple "thanks" and a whole lot of "I miss you!" I'm forever a fan, Mom. :)


("Tribute to an Angel" Paper Cut, 11/03/13)


“She is clothed with strength and dignity and she laughs at the days to come.  She opens her mouth in wisdom, and on her tongue is kindly counsel.  Her children rise up and praise her, her husband, too extols her.  Many are the women of proven worth, but you have excelled them all.” (Ecclesiastes 31:25-29)




Love,
Pi
