In my previous post I said that I was going to try out a bigger size circle punch for my next experiment. The circle was 3/4″ larger than the first. 
This made the ornament quite a bit larger than the first…
They are just so darn cute. Now I want to punch circles from everything not nailed down.
Here’s a little more perspective on the size difference. I think the small ones would make a really cute garland.
This is definitely not a new craft…but it was a new one for me. I hang on to all our old cards. They are so pretty I can’t bear throwing them in the recycle bin.
Of course, Pinterest played a big part in me actually creating one of these. Ah, Pinterest… How much time I spend with you… The thousands of pins we share… Time organizing and reorganizing when I should be organizing the real things in my life.
Maybe this is a better clue to the size. 
It was created with a 1.25″ punch. 
The green one on the left. My neighbor borrowed the blue 2″ punch. I’m curious how much exponentially bigger another one will be with that punch. Yes I’m aware I could do the math…but I’ll just give it a whirl in the physical dimension and compare. Results to follow…soon.
Unless I’m crushed under all the Christmas goodies I’ve been making…
These are just from this morning. I’m getting a sugar rush just smelling them.
I’m getting to the point that just thinking about eating any of it just doesn’t sounds appealing. Just like when I worked at Baker’s Square when I was a teen…when you are around pies, cookies and muffins all day long…you have desire to eat any.
Happy Tuesday! Time for another edition of
T Stands for Tuesday.
Once again I come to you a little late since I was out walking this morning.
I, of course, had my favorite water bottle with me…never leave home without it. My friend and I have been making a habit of walking at least once a week so we can catch up. We used to see each other twice a week at other functions but that has changed.
It was funny because even after walking and talking the whole time, we stood in the parking lot and chatted since we still had more to say. 
I’ve been busy at crafting too…more inventory. Today I think I’m going to pull out my boxes and see exactly what I have ready to go. It always feels like a lot but you just don’t know what will be the “hot ticket” item each year. I’m in love with the sideways spool ornament. I may have to keep that one for myself as I used some scraps to create it. It is definitely OOAK.
What are you doing today?
