A Homemade Christmas – In Review
January 1, 2009
This is the last A Homemade Christmas post of the year (though today is the first of 2009) — AHC in review.
I received this darling notebook from my dear sister, Breezy.
It has a lovely composition of cut out scrapbook papers, what a feminine design!
Along the bottom of the front are old portraits of ladies in hats. I thought this quite sweet since hats are one of my favorite little (sometimes not so little) items from the past.
Breezy also decoupaged the inside. In the bottom left corner she added a little surprise. How I enjoy the appearance of a good vintage post card!
Every Thursday I posted about homemade Christmas gifts and decorations, what fun it was to have so many others post along with me! Thank you to all you joined me, what a blessing it has been to do this! Lord willing I might do it again next year! If you would like to post another homemade Christmas post, feel free to sign Mr. Linky below. I thought it would be nice to get to see the gifts that you had to keep secret until after Christmas, and maybe even the ones you received! Have a wonderfully blessed new year!

While living the life my Lord has blessed me with, I am at home with my family enjoying being a daughter, homemaker and artist. My highest goal is to give glory to God and enjoy Him forever. It is He that has saved me with His amazing grace and is continually molding me; to Him I owe everything. Read more . . .
Oo! That IS lovely! I love the colors she used.
Thank you so much for answering my question about photos on my blog!!
Happy New Year!!

I’m a day behind (what else is new?!), but I wanted to add the things I couldn’t show last week! : )
What a beautiful idea! Hmmm….new thoughts for those ugly notebooks I have….. ; )
Blessings!

How very pretty!! I’m glad you had a good Christmas. Happy New Year! :O)
That is so crafty and very pretty. Mayde could you do a tutorial on how to make one!?
Blessings,

I love this! Very pretty. :D
I love the notebook! Especially the ladies in hats. My friend and I have an “adventures in hats” tradition where we just have little outings wearing hats (obviously).
Even though I was late getting to it, I loved the homemade Christmas posts – I hope you do it again next year!
