šŸŽ„āœØ Get ready to add a little sparkle to your Christmas tree! āœØšŸŽ„

Iā€™m excited to be teaching a Christmas Ornament Workshop for the Kawartha Ladies Golf Club on September 10th!

Weā€™ll be creating these fun and festive glittered foam ornaments, including beautiful Christmas bells and elegant angel ornaments. ā¤ļøšŸ’šāœØ

There will be lots of sparkle, colour and creativity as we turn simple materials into unique handmade decorations that youā€™ll be proud to hang on your treeā€”or give as a special gift. šŸŽ

Whether youā€™re a seasoned crafter or just love making something pretty, this workshop is all about having fun, getting creative and enjoying some Christmas magic together!

I canā€™t wait to see what everyone creates! ā¤ļøāœØ

Iā€™ve been saving showing this particular gown ensemble as it was rather involved and complicated. My young lady has a ā€œchannelā€ Caldwell Estates in which she will be doing postings about farm life in the 1800ā€™s. She needed a historically accurate costume to wear during her presentations. We did her un**es, petticoats, dress and bonnet. I forget to take pics of the un**es. They were made of a lovely good quality sheeting and dripping with lace and ribbon. My lady is a girly girl and LOVES frilly fluff.
The dress is a quilt cotton that we found over in Cambridge at Len's Mill Stores. Lens Mills have a huge collection of reproduction quilt cottons and are well worth the trip, if yr looking for historical anything.
Hereā€™s some pics. Enjoy!

Are you interested in learning how to make a couple of these little beauties? Weā€™re doing a workshop for Kawartha Ladies Golf League - non golfersā€¦.
If I can get enough interest, Iā€™d be more than happy to put on an online Christmas Craft workshop for you or your group. Send me a message if youā€™re interested. šŸ˜
