Oh Christmas branch, oh Christmas branch...

Here is our finished handmade branch. It was a family joint effort... well sorta.

and here is our lounge room with branchy goodness in the corner...Hanna crocheted the long rainbow garland and made a pile of tiny.... no - miniscule, paper origami cranes.

I crocheted the white wool bobble garland, sewed the weird shaped fabric ornaments, and insisted on listening to nice carols sung by Perry Como, The Drifters, Dean Martin, Sinatra and Nat King Cole.

The Boy's contribution was to get frustrated and stamp on his first unsuccessful origami crane, so tried again, decided to ignore the all-important folds and proudly completed something which resembles a Pterodactyl. He also provided honest (sometimes honesty just isnt called for) suggestions which we disregarded anyway - yay for female:male ratio of 2:1!!!! Lucky for us he does not really mind what rediculous crafting goes on in the house :D

x Happy Thursday everyone!
