All kinds of crafty

This weekend I've delved in many different crafty endeavors.  I:

• baked and decorated gingerbread cookies 
• baked a cake for more cake truffles
• made Tootsie the owl 
• made "Reindeer Food"
• cut out all the pieces to make T his own owl which does not have a name yet...

Check out the owl for T!  I love him!  He's made out of a stretchy "jean" fabric, white corduroy eyeballs and brown centers, orange fleece beak, blue flannel belly and swirly orange batik wings.  

I also have been reading about this tradition of leaving "reindeer food" outside on Christmas Eve and I loved it.  So I made T his own:

It's oats and sparkle confetti.  On the back it has this poem:

Sprinkle on the lawn at night
The moon will make it sparkle bright
As Santa's reindeer fly and roam
This will guide them to your home.

In addition to all that I also cleaned the house and got a few things organized-- and had some fun outside the house too.  Not bad for a weekend ;)
