Crafty Friends Rock

I think just about anyone who reads this blog would agree... crafty friends rock and handmade gifts are truly the best! I'm fortunate enough to have several creative friends and family members in my circle and wanted to share a few recent presents...

This gorgeous handpainted Christmas ornament is from my friend Melanie. I absolutely love it... the colors are so pretty. Unfortunately, the pictures just don't do it justice, but you get the idea (and in case you're wondering, the cute Zeus bone is from Gaylen... two years ago she made them - and other awesome goodies - for my pack!)...

Many of you already know about Anita's fabulous creations and these yarn hank stitch markers are no exception. They were a wonderful Christmas surprise - I had been coveting them in her shop! She just updated her etsy shop... hurry!

Last, but not least, my Mom made this tea cup pin cushion for me for my birthday and I can't believe I forgot to blog it!!! Doesn't it just make you wanna grab a cuppa?

Cute pin cushion!! And I love that ornament! I tried those one year but mine didn't come out nearly that pretty. :)
I'm glad you liked the markers...

Adorable, one and all. Talented, timely friends are wonderful, aren't they? I hope you like surprise packages too...

Love the goodies. :-) Is the paint on the inside of the ornament?
