From Christmas morning

Merry Christmas to all!

The stockings aren't exactly hung

But St. Nick was definitely here!

Having a merry Little Christmas

And hoping you wake to

Peace on earth,

Goodwill to men

Love and merriment to all

And Joy that our Savior is born!

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

I think I could post for a month of Sundays on everything we have been doing in preparation for Christmas.  I will share as much (or as little) as time and space allows, but for now I say:
 A Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night...
since it is 1:26 AM as I write this.

a day late- and a dollar short- but the wishes are sincere

December

And here is the lovely ice we got Sunday 12/8/13.
I did go to church - and food shopping- but the drive home was NOT fun!!

Projects

 Two projects that I have been working on:
the cabinet by the door:

 And William's Pueblo Indian Project- he did more than you would think, but YES I had to walk him through it step by step by step:

Clock Table

This is where I am at with the clock table;
 there are at least 3 things that I see as mistakes or as needing improvement. What is glaring to you?

I realize that it is not 100% true to ANY of the inspiration pictures

But I am still wondering about:

1) putting the dark wax around the outside rim (maybe the center too?)

 

 

2)Putting an a second ring and putting minute dashes  (might be too busy?)

or

3) putting a more decorative scroll incorporated in this outside ring per:

 

 

Progress? (still do minute tickings?)
