Between our lunch and deserts we will be doing a craft project. Marion and I are supplying two candles for each lady to decorate as she pleases and, of course, take home with her. I have prepared several different punched out shapes of snowflakes in various colors, ribbons, glitter, and some embroidered Christmas motifs. The craft project is always fun because each lady's creation is totally different.
As additional luncheon favors I have embroidered a Holly and Berry Pin for each lady. We are giving them in a box that I have decorated the top with a
holly leaf in red.
Another favor is a set of three Christmas magnets: a tree, a deer and the word 'JOY'. These I have flocked, micro beaded and glittered.
Why go to so much trouble? Well, I believe that one's guests should be pampered. And, I like to make the occasion memorable. In future blogs I will picture and detail our food. We are having three different desserts. Only because I LOVE making sweet treats.
This blog is short as I am working on new embroidery projects that will be in my Etsy shop soon. Here is a peek!
I'm working on a set of paper doll clothes and doll and toys. All embroidered. They will be ready to play with OR, they could be framed.
Look for them in my shop soon: candytheartist.etsy.com. Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
