Last week's Blogger's Challenge was to "Alter It", I came across this little basket (template and instructions are on Mary Jo's Blog) and thought it'd make a cute little Christmas basket! Well, I like the way it turned out and I will likely make some more at Christmas time, but Holy Snickerdoodles!! I could NOT get myself motivated to get it done!! It really isn't that time intensive I just couldn't get it together. Unforutnately, I couldn't find anything "Christmas-y" to put into it (besides this tinsel), luckily I just got some great buttons from Gina K and they fit just perfectly!! This would be fun with a fall theme and add some big leaves in it and then fill it with nuts (you know the kind you get that require the nut cracker?) So many possibilities! Hope you had a wonderful weekend! Thanks so much for stopping by.
