Trees and Things

I know, it's been a while... but we have been house-sitting. I have been without my camera cords, my internet access among many other things. Sleep is also something I've been without. This home has kitties, and I am deathly allergic to kitties, so my weezing has been keeping me awake. Luckly, I am staying at my little house tonight. Free from kitties and other lung-restricting allergens.

I have, however, been able to do a little crafting for the holidays. I was inspired by a beautiful blog to make some little crocheted christmas trees and bobble garland. I had a fantastic minty blue yarn, and not liking traditional "christmas colors", used it for my little tree-o of firs. (only two are pictured, but I will be posting the little arrangement soon enough.

Here are the little blues as they are getting built.

And the tree little spruces after. Note the awesome red garland... I made a few in white for out house and another red for the tree. Cool backyard, no? Unfortunately it's not ours... It is a succulent (plant) heaven.

Now, I'm off to finish the garlands and maybe watch a movie with my little brother.
