My dear friend Karen and I used to walk around the old neighborhood and make friends with anyone renovating or building a home with the hope we’d be invited in to check out their project. This Christmas Project was made for her and I called it “Let’s Look In The Window”.
It was a shadow box made to look like a view into Santa’s Workshop. Turns out half the fun is looking for cool, vintagey treasure to tell your story in this Christmas Emporium. I can’t wait to make another theme.

Hey? missed this one. BTW .xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxooxox
I’m a little weepy today. Visiting you here felt like the right thing to do. xoxoxoxooxoooo
Oh no ((( hon ))), why weepy? Are you having post holiday blues? I’m really sad for that, you’re such a tender soul. Gentle hugs coming your way xoxox
That is so cool! What a fun idea. I bet your friend cried when she saw all the love and work that went into this. Did you end up making another one?
I didn’t see her open it, they spend Christmas at their mountain home in the Canadian Rockies (I know….pretty swell right). I have one more box for another Altered Art project, maybe a garden one?
“Mountain home in the Rockies….” I’m swooning here.
Garden Altered Art sounds like a perfect use for your next box. In the interest of full disclosure, I am a teensie bit biased on the subject. 😉
I was dreaming of a blog but found a forever friend, and I can’t believe Ellen hasn’t dedicated a whole show to us 😀 LOL Honestly though, thank you for every bit of support from here to there and back again! XO
Hello my Kindred Spirit. So glad you clicked on February 12th, the day I found you. Mwaaaaa to infinity.
Ellen *should* dedicate a show to us! How do we convince her?
We’ll have to kidnap her and threaten to take her to Canada in the winter…LOL.
Mwaaaa to infinity and beyond 😀 xo
LOL…That should do it!
