christmas crafting

here's a sampling of the fun handmade parts of our christmas this year.

the felt star ornaments we helped noah make for friends and family (with thanks to heather for the idea)

noah in his new neckwarmer from heather

noah's stocking, made by grandma, filled with a new red hat and mittens, made by oma

N is for Noah, a book i made for noah on snapfish

his favorite page in the book, with a picture of a very sad noah on the carousel

isla in her awesome oma booties, which go halfway up her legs

here's noah playing with his very cool neighborhood map, made by uncle colin, aunt nic, aunt irene and uncle kevan. it includes the police station, the library, trader joe's, and our local market, nelson's, among other stops. (and parking spots for noah's prius and his mail truck.) he loves it!

a beautiful mobile from maryka for isla, with needle felted flowers, leaves and stems and lovely old-fashioned bells
our christmas stockings, which i made! not perfect at all, but functional.

gift baskets for our neighbors, with gingerbread and spritz cookies and chocolate fudge
