Hi Friends,
How are your holiday plans coming along? This weekend we cleaned out our hallway closet and got our spare bedroom - previously known as 'the dumping ground' - ready for my sister's Christmas visit.
I was so very proud of Nola and Kira who generously donated many old and beloved toys to those less fortunate. Speaking of new traditions, donating old toys has become part of our holiday routine. The girls are in charge of their toys - they choose what to donate and we never try to push them into donating something they are not ready to part with. I am constantly amazed, moved, and so very inspired by these girls willingness to give.
A super-quick craft:
To make a colorful toy box for donated toys, lace pretty ribbon through the holes of a plastic tote.
I look forward to a fun week of holiday making with you... this week I'll be highlighting crafts of Christmas past. See you tomorrow!
