Craft Book Challenge: Cause Christmas Can’t Come Soon Enough …

craftbookchallengesmall buttonI should have posted this last week for the October entry of my craft book challenge.  This should not even be considered a D.I.Y how to — it was so easy.  All I needed were some colourful jump-rings and some charms (I bought all the supplies at Oriental Trading during Summer 2012 ).  Five minutes later … 14 winter/Christmas themed stitch-markers.  Yes, I know it’s only Fall, but Christmas can’t come soon enough for me!  😛

Aren’t they just so adorable?!!!!  My favourite’s the little penguin!

Stitch MarkersThis super cute, quickie project satisfied my urge somewhat to get some crafting in despite the craziness that came at the end of October.  My schedule is clearing so I’ll be back to “real” crafting soon.

Off to go make my chili and cornbread!  Yummzers!!!  That’s after I go try to find some cute gingerbread men charms!  LOLOL!  😛

    Snowflakes are my thing! And these are so cute you have me wanting to update my old handmade stichmarkers to something new. I started making Christmas cards already, but my heart never gets into the Christmas season until at least a week before the holiday. -Nizzy

    These stitchmarkers are so, so cute!!!! I’ve been playing Christmas music in the house ever since November rolled around. My family has gotten used to this quirk of mine and so this year their groans have been fewer, LOL!

      LOLOL! Glad it’s not just me. I was playing from October 26th much to the shock of my office mates. You should have seen the shock on their faces when they heard the music coming from my office. 😀
