this year as our art group met for the our annual holiday retreat we decided instead of making gifts for each other we would create a holiday tree and donate it to the Christmas Box House. we also decorated christmas kitties that are now up for auction on Lorraine's blog. she will be taking bids for all 10 kitties until saturday night. go take a peek, they will be shipped on monday and arrive in time for christmas. the best part is 100% of the donations will be sent to the Haiti Gospel Mission. i feel overwhelmed and grateful to have been a part of the beauty and blessings we created as a group of like minded women that put their heads together and decided to spread some JOY!
(um, we totally had fun doing it....)
this is my holly. i had a little bundle of vintage santa crepe paper ruffles on my desk when i went to work on her and so she looks rather festive in her party skirt. she is all dressed up for her office christmas party and ready to come home with you for the holidays.
i hope each of you are enjoying a little holiday sparkle today, julie
She's very cute and good luck with your worthy endeavorer.
