Christmas countdown







Okay so Christmas will soon be here & I cant wait! I love Christmas. Our Christmas tree goes up on the 1st of December. Even working in a card & gift shop doesn't spoil it for me .... though I must admit by the last week leading up to it I'm ready to stop listening to the same old songs on the DVD player!!!

I loved doing the 'tag books' & I decided to make something similar for myself but with Christmas in mind. I searched the internet & found instructions for making a Christmas countdown at http://www.makethemomentlast.co.uk/ which fit the bill. Its only half of their project but I decided I didnt want my countdown to be fixed to anything. It was a very easy & enjoyable project using allsorts of bits & pieces already in my stash or freebies printed off the internet - I have already made another for a friend & I have plans to make one for my niece & her 2 yr old daughter! I love the childishness of the 'sleeps til....'
