Craft: Christmas!

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

It's Christmas. Let's get crafty!

This is one I did today.



This came in a pack of 3 angel ornaments but I lost one of the heads! While making it! I know! But yes! I am keeping the stuff in case the head turns up. I've hunted, but it's a clear marble so who knows? If I don't find it soon, I'm going to make a headless angel.



Here are two more, made with Minisculus & Minor.

Those look so fun! The girls did these stocking shaped ornaments earlier this month that were really cute; and then there were like a million jewels left over so they bedazzled a lot of stuff. LOL

I hope you found the angel head! LOL

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

That sounds like fun. Nice that you got extra jewels to play with. Yeah, I even stopped in Michael's to see if there was another angel ornament kit (to get another head) and they were out of them. And it's maddening because I lost it in the span of about 20 minutes. *eye rolls*

Oh that's so aggravating.

I wonder if you could use a cotton ball for the head?

Those look brilliant. I particularly like the top one.

Thank you! It was fun. I even played the Nutcracker suite while I did it.

Hey--question--am I going mad or did I write a BBC Sherlock Nutcracker AU? I tried to find it on AO3 and can't but I have a vague notion I wrote one. With Mycroft and Lestrade? And Mummy Holmes? It seems very real but I have no trace of it.

Sorry to butt in here, but are you thinking about the one on your Livejournal? It was just a first chapter - the post is dated 3rd of December 2018.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Yes, I think I am thinking of a wishful alternate universe where I finished and posted it.

Lovely festive additions, Sorry about the headless angel, though...

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Thanks! Yeah, the headless angel is a mystery. Minisculus and I did the red and green one and I set the items for the blue one aside for Minor. Twenty minutes later, the head was gone. I've looked and looked.

I love all the colours of the Nutcracker scene ^___^ And the little mugs are so cute. I'm very taken with the jumpers as well, particularly the blue one - I'd wear that ^____^

I'm sorry about the angel head going missing though. That's such a shame ^^"

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

It's nice, isn't it? I got it last year and put it up. I will let Minisculus know his jumper found approval :) The mugs are fun.

It is. I don't know how long I'm going to wait before I give up hope that it'll be found.

These are so beautuful :) Were they difficult to make? Good luck with finding the head! Lol.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Thanks! Yes, a bit fiddly. Yes, I am not hopeful but it might surface yet.
