Christmas Ornaments 2012

We add at least one new ornament to our tree every year. We try to make them when we can.  This year this is what we decided to make. We also gave them as gifts and listed them for sale on eBay and Etsy.  We sold a few sets! They are simple to make, with a little help from my husband and his power tools.  He cut a log into round pieces and drilled a hole.  I then used a rubber stamp to put on the image.  He put a clear finish on them and I added a ribbon. They are really fun and I love the rustic mountain feel.  We have also made some with pine trees and custom pictures.  I plan to make a few more for next year. 

Moose in Bennington, Vermont

Today on our fall drive, we found ourselves in Bennington, Vermont. We spotted these four moose sculptures around the town. I love how they are artistically decorated by the businesses. I'm sure there are several more somewhere in town. These were the only ones we spotted!
