Snow day= craft day!

So today we got our first snow of the season supposedly just the beginning of a long snow-filled winter which is quite unusual for us around these parts!! I love how peaceful and calm everything looks in the snow and how it just forces us to slow down and enjoy being together. The boys and I had fun playing in the snow and then watching the Nutcracker. Thankfully the snow play totally tuckered out the boys and I was able to get some crafting done-mostly finishing little projects.
Here are a few projects that I finished up:
I finished an appliquéd tea towel I had started back in september
I finished making Christmas gift toppers/ornaments:

Joey and I made this crayon Monogram for his teacher Ms Wendy:
Joey mostly chose the color of the crayons then he was the glue painter-I drew lines where the paint needed to go then he would paint it on the section and I would stick on the crayon.
Branch Reindeer-I saw these last year on Etsy and booked marked them. I really liked how they turned out and I am glad I finally got to making them.
