I'm going to start today's post with a little insight into how I get my photos. (Note: I don't normally put this much effort in. This project just didn't want to be photographed.)
Step 1: Take the picture with the lights on.
Mission accomplished. Now, let's show how cool it looks with the lights off!
Step 2: Turn the lights off, turn the tea light on, and take the picture again.
Ehh. That didn't go so well.
Step 3: Move the box near your open door, so a little light from the hallway will spill in.
Oops. Caught the laundry basket in that one.
Step 4: Zoom way in and flip the camera to cut out the laundry basket (rather then just cropping Step 3 later).
Argh! Never mind!
This one did like having its picture taken, though:
I like how you can see how shiny it is. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside. Just because I feel like telling you, the box has a tree on all four sides, and the opposite sides are the same color, either red or green. There's a white stripe in between each colored section, and the top is a mix of all three colors. I love it!
Since these are done, I have a very important announcement to make.
I have officially finished all of the projects I am making as Christmas gifts this year.
That'll be all.
I also made the circle scarf I was talking about.. um.. sometime last week? I might put up a little tutorial next week, because it didn't go exactly as planned, but I do like it.
This choker is a great way to show some spirit (get it? spirit? like a ghost?) without going all out, or you could make it the focal point of an entire costume.

To Do To Start:
- the house emblems on my HP cross stitch
