Identity crisis and Christmas drips




I think i maybe an elf
Am I ? Is that why i am 4ft 10 and is that why i am always covered in glitter.
I personally know an elf she lives in Alaska.But am i one i wonder.I have been
very very busy and Christmas is dripping into my craft room one drop of glue and glitter at a time.I have been making things that just pop in my head and out my hands.It happens this way to me a lot ,i wake up and think ooh i must try this.
That what i love about craft.You think of something and then there it is!
Well sometimes it doesn't turn out exactly like it was in your head and sometimes it turns out nothing like it and that can be great too.Many a happy mistake i have made.Here is this months treasures,the little dioramas came from an idea i got thanks to my aunt.She gave me a lovely decoupage book and one picture was of a Victorian child's pop up page so thats the small and large box i did.i changed the snowman as the Victorian snowman looked enough to give any child a nightmare lol.
To see the diorama better just click on it and it will enlarge
The medium sized one is totally one i made up from a few images.The pop up cone deccys were inspired by a similar toy my son Tim had as a baby.

Thanks for dropping by today, and buying another treasure for your gorgeous home!! And you still have glitter on you!!
I remember making a cone thingy years ago, it was a childs toy, a clown I think! My daughter absolutely loved it, and would push and pull the stick and make him pop up, clever idea.Love all your creative ideas too!

Hiya Jules and thanks so much for visiting + your lovely comments! Yes hands up xmas addict here, i cant believe i missed your Halloween post too as i went all out this year for that as well. Will be well & truly burnt out by January!! Love what you have made. I am so inspired, i wish i knew how to make things like that or had the time at least. Perhaps that will be a new years resolution for me. Mel xxx

I enjoyed the whimsical tone of this post and your creations are so pretty! I agree with the picture in the mind sometimes being a little or a lot different than what actually comes off the tip of the fingers. Sometimes I make a tiny mistake and the piece takes a different and more wonderful direction. I love every minute.

Hope you are well my friend.

Cheers! =D
