Advent - gift making - snow

A short burst of snow flurries today...

It didn't last long, but was just enough to get me thinking more seriously about Christmas.

I have lots of plans for gift making,

as well as for a patchwork table runner and a banner for me.
The Christmas table runner has been in the works for two years ~

could this be the year it actually gets made?...

One can hope :)

I did get my Advent candle arrangement done today, a little late as Advent always seems to sneak up on me. I did it a little different this year and will be back soon with a picture.

Are you making any gifts this year? Any ideas to share?
