Does anyone know who makes these sickly sweet little buggers? I couldn't help but buy them, cutesy wootsy isn't usually my thing but I mean look at them. Don't they just melt your heart.
My favorite and most coveted item of the day was finding these vintage Gurley candles. They sold me all three for only $2.00 and after I saw they were upposed to be $5.00 dollars each. Score!!
Come to find out all the christmas items I bought were regular price. Even though some vintage Santas, candle molds, childrens books from 1945, more miscellanious vintage ornaments and my first pair of high heel shoes made it home with me. I know can you believe it almost 30 and never owned a pair of high hells. I am going to look like a wobbling baby bird in those things.
I am still steadily working on all my handmade gifts: layered cookie jars, flavored coffee mixes and necklaces for all the girl cousins are done. The necklaces turned out quite nice I think.
Next up on the todo is the Rum Balls, Ale and Pretzel carmels, jar soups and assorted fudge. I know it is making my damn head spin. The one thing that has me the most stressed is shopping for my 9 year old son. What do you get a boy who only wants video games?
