'Tis the Season


There's nothing cozier than a room lit only by the soft warm glow of the lights on a Christmas tree. Things get so hectic this time of year that I have to remind myself every now and again to relax and enjoy the little things:  the smell of spiced apple cider and pine boughs, the crunch of snow underfoot (or better yet, snow outside the window while I'm toasty warm inside!), or the look of concentration on a child's face while helping make Christmas cookies.  

I used a pale green and the softest buttery yellow, then threw in a pop of coral and I'm surprised at the the vintage feel the colors give this macrame bracelet.  The pattern is my Falling Leaves Micro Macrame Bracelet and the class is here if you want to try one for yourself.  (If you prefer, this piece is available in my Etsy shop here.)  It's always fun to see the outcome of whatever new color combination occurs to me and I love the feelings of nostalgia this one evokes.  It makes me feel all warm and mushy inside.  

Holiday hugs!
