A Memorable Holiday
What a joyous time of year! It's especially joyous in my household, as we once again celebrate the birth of our Lord. Many of you celebrate other holidays this time of year, such as Hanukkah or Kwanzaa. No matter your celebration, I hope your family feels the joy in this season like mine does!
There is something so wonderful about being at home for the holidays. One of the joys I treasure most of all is spending time with my family and friends, making memories together! We always enjoy exchanging small token gifts. Mine usually consist of some sort of crafting project. I imagine many of yours do, too!
As we come into the last week of getting ready for the holidays, there is nothing more enjoyable for me than including other members of the house in the preparations! My kids love not only helping with the decorations, but the pre-Christmas baking, the gift wrapping, and even the making of small craft projects for their Grandmas and Grandpas. Each year, we try to think of something new that we can do together.
This year that something new is framing special holiday die cuts! The die cuts can be simple silhouettes or more complex paper piecings. It's so exciting for each child to not only make the project, but to also see their loved one open that gift and break out in a huge smile!
So take the time out to enjoy whatever pre-Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa activities you can with your family. Make it another memorable holiday for years to come!
Happy Holidays,
