Snow Days!

On Tuesday we got our first snow of the season! 

I love snow.

It is freezing though!

No Refashion Friday post for today.

I've been trying to stay warm and doing this:

Refashion Friday - Sweater Snowman

My sister and  I wanted some wintery decorations for a party so we made this cute little guy out of the sleeve from a huge old sweater.

We followed this tutorial from Crafts and Sutch. For the hat, we used the sleeve from another sweater. We simply cut the bottom of the sleeve off, tied a piece of yarn around it and turned it right side out. Then I made a little pom pom for the top!

This is an easy, almost no-sew project that can be completed in a short amount of time. 

Lovely Paper Doilies

In the past I strongly disliked anything lacy or ruffly, but now I do like lace and ruffles when they are used with taste and in small amounts. These simple paper doilies that Lora Jean shows how to make are so pretty. I have enjoyed making a few.
