tendencies

i have the tendency to start a craft before a given holiday (say christmas in this case), and then get so busy or the craft takes too long to finish that well...lets admit it i don't finish it until after the holiday is long gone. now this has happened a few times and more than josh would like, but hey in my defense at least we get to enjoy the craft for the next year. such is the case with redoing our christmas ornaments. this year my tree just bugged me (don't know why). i kept fiddling with it and finally figured out that i was sick and tired of the gold....it was just too much for me. so after we took down the tree in january i decided to take all of our old ornaments that we got the first year we were married and add some sparkle to them. i just mod podged ripped up book pages to the balls added some glitter, tied new bows and tags and whala....new ornaments. it took time because well i just didn't feel like sitting on a hard stool everyday with a big pregnant belly. but they finally did get finished and we will see how they go on the tree the next year. who knows maybe i will be kicking myself for doing it....just in case i did save a box of the originals.
