Welcome! I am in Surrey, BC, Canada, which is close to Vancouver
Well, it's November 3rd. We officially have snow on the ground.
And that means CHRISTMAS!!!
I know that a lot of people say it's too early, but hear me out. In two weeks and two days, I have 15 people coming over for Christmas baking, and making a stack of Christmas cards, and i've been doing this for at least 5 years, and it really kick starts the season for my customers to come into a house that's all head to toe decked out.
So, with that in mind, what i've been working on, is a tea advent calendar!!! We have this tea shop called "David's Tea", and they have this wonderful Tea Advent... but it's $45! And I just can't justify that. SO! I went over to the local Craft store (ahem, Michaels), and found these for $20.
My favorite is our glitter paper and our new Be Merry Christmas DSP! see if you can spot it in there.
Here's a close up.
And then each of the little containers you put a scoop of tea in, and you've got yourself a unique gift for you (or a friend!)
And the completed project:
Thanks for stopping by!
