A very chilly and frosty day down here in Devon as no doubt it is in many other parts of the country too!
I have had a lovely start to the week, receiving a gift from my
Make and Craft swap partner, Wendy of
Alice and Florence Blog.
I can't wait to start my little cross stitch Christmas Tree! Wendy chose one of my favourite colour combinations, pink and green. Thank you Wendy for such a thoughtful gift.
Here is what I made for Wendy
The bought gift was a little tea-light holder with Wendy's name on, but I forgot to take a photo of this. Oops! If you would like to see what it looked like and what Wendy thought of her gift, why not pop over and take a look at her
blog. I'm sure she would love to meet you.
All that's left now is to say Happy Christmas to you all and I'll see you over at
Handmade Monday and don't forget ......
