This week’s life updates took up half of this podcast! Sometimes that’s just how it is. : )
I had a wonderful Christmas & shared all the details about that. My son’s main gift, body-kun figures, didn’t arrive until the day after Christmas, but at least they came before he headed back to college.
I shared a few things I got for Christmas that were not really craft related.
- Gnome hand towels {didn’t see them online, but they came from Joanns}
- Pearessence Overnight Recovery Serum, Rose
More happy mail this week from another Australian friend! Go follow her on Instagram cause she’s awesome!
I’m hosting a Finish-Along in my Facebook group, Teadoddles Makers. There will be challenges & prizes, so sign up if you like to make things!
