Festive Decorations

I know, I know, it's still ages away! But I've signed up for a couple of fairs and I'm determined to be organised for a change! This year's new design is this cute little mouse, which is designed to hang on the tree from his candy cane!


Like so!!

The cinnamon robins are back once more, this time made from linen...

and with an alternative breast colour!

Penguins have returned this year too, also in linen!

Did you notice, the penguins and the mice have the same basic shape? I used the same pattern and tweaked it a little. All decorations are available in my Etsy and Folksy shops.

Anyway I hope you like my new offerings for 2011!
A warm welcome to all new readers - have a great weekend!

  12. All brilliant, but I have a soft spot for the penguins......very sweet indeed! I had a lovely penguin given to me by a dear friend on my 18th and it used to sit on my dashboard in the car (well numerous cars) anyway, cut a long story short my darling hubby sold my car whilst I was out and forgot to take th penguin out.....gutted!

  18. Christmas might seem far away, yet it will come very quickly - I know that rule, because every year I say "I will be more organised" and still Christmas comes unnoiced :)

    I loved your decorations and think that they will be very popular.
