Has the Holiday madness hit your house yet? With two Christmas parties this weekend we are definitely feeling a little worn out, but it was so worth it. We had a wonderful time with friends celebrating the season.
Last night we went to my husband’s work party, which was an Tacky Christmas Sweater party. I was surprised at how hard it was to find a tacky Christmas Sweater, especially for my husband. I definitely didn’t want to pay a lot for something we would wear only one night, and I had no luck in my thrift store searches. So, we took matters into our own hands. My husband masterminded the design, and I was the seamstress that made it happen.
We took the antlers off of a headband and I made a stencil with this Silhouette Shape to make these funky glasses out of felt. We finished it with a pom pom and the result was simply tacky!
Now that the Christmas parties are done, I have my sights set on finishing Christmas gifts this next week. I’m a little nervous of my approaching deadline, there might be a few late nights in my future.
