Okay, never mind that it's now January. Mike left the little tree up a few extra days because I was working on this tree skirt to fit our little Christmas tree.I think it actually turned out pretty well. Of course I'll have to press out the points a bit when I drag out the iron (which I had no intention of doing at 11:45 p.m. on Friday when I finished this thing). At any rate it definitely looks better than the other tree skirt that I had there before. It's just the right size and a little more colorful than the oversized plain white one it replaced (actually sized for a regular tree, not a miniature tree).
Now I guess Mike can finally take down the last Christmas tree for this year, and I'll pack the tree skirt safely away to enjoy next year.
I am a married mom of four grown kids, grandma of the world's cutest grandson and most beautiful granddaughter, and was a licensed family child care provider from July 1986 until June 2009. I have earned my Child Development Associate credential and am a nationally certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (in other words, I can tell you more than you want to know about car seats and safe transportation of kids in cars). I have also been described as a "knitaholic" since I can be seen with knitting in hand almost anywhere that I happen to be. Recently I have ventured into the world of spinning my own yarn as well. This blog will chronicle my latest knitting projects, craft fairs, and the other major happenings in my life.
