Post 5 of our Christmas crafts

Man, I have been slacking.  Too much work overtime and a sick son.  Plus, I got an early Christmas present.  I dog.  Like I needed more animals, but how was I supposed to say no?  I have been wanting a fluffy lap dog for ages.

Meet Clovie.  She is a 2 year old Pekingese, Maltese, Min Pin mix.

Ok, now to our crafty links:

(I make these with rice and long and skinny, so I can drape them around my neck.  This year, I am making some foot warmer ones that will have the heat pad covered in cotton and a fleece cover with a pocket to slip your feet into to warm them while watching TV, or watching a movie.)

Christmas card village

Well, I hope you are getting all those Christmas crafts wrapped up.  (pun intended)  Till next time.  Keep crafting!
