Luvachicken Posted December 26, 2021 Author Share Posted December 26, 2021 Well done to everyone for such wonderful makes. So many different things that have been made and all so very talented. Might have to start learning some new skills myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girly Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 I was given some beautiful beaded Christmas Bells! They will adorn my Christmas trees and will be part of our traditional decorations for generations. My daughter has already claimed them for herself ( when the time comes,Mum!). The chocolate has been eaten by me already! Thank you Santa! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that is a long time to go Girly. How old is your daughter ? When my daughter was a lot younger, she wanted my dressing gown when I died. I still have that dressing gown but she doesn't want it now she is 30 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girly Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Hi Luvachicken. My daughter is 43 and lives with me. She suffers from anxiety and depression and also fibromyalgia. Life is a bit tough for her, she hasn’t got over loosing her Dad 4 years ago. But when these things happen we have to try and build a different, happy life.. …we manage! 🙂🙂🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted December 28, 2021 Author Share Posted December 28, 2021 @Girly that sounds tough on both of you. I hope you both had a wonderful Christmas though and as @Blackrocksrock said fingers crossed that 2022 is a better year xxx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girly Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Thank you. We both enjoyed Christmas. I’m staying with my sister for a few days and DDs long term boyfriend ( my nearly son - in - law) is staying with her. So both having a nice break. Just hope she’s looking after my girls! 😂😂😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do this every year - it’ll be a job for next weekend for me. I don’t cut them all a regular shape but cut them to suit whatever the picture is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted January 3, 2022 Author Share Posted January 3, 2022 I love making gift tags with old Christmas cards too. We used to do this when we were much, much younger, using pinking shears. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
