...for which I'm truely grateful!! Especially as I started working on Christmas stuff in about June! I am now pretty 'Angel-led ' out. Thought I would share a few of my goodies destined for markets 28th Nov & 5 Dec. I hav'nt been ignoring y'all - just working flat out - and my computer's been on a go-slow .. (we are in South Africa, after all!). Ian says my pics are too small - let me know if you want them bigger.

Thank you all for your compliments - hope the customers feel the same way!
The Nativities are really fun to make - especially the three Wise Men with all their beautiful textures and 'gifts' to create. I keep collecting scraps of beautifull 'Wise Men' glass - could make lots of them!! - actually have sold a couple of sets of just 'The Three Kings'.

A customer came in today and said that he made a whirl with the nativity inside. I couldn't wait to come and tell Beth!

I like the rings as a finishing touch too, the drummer is sweet, and your Nativity puts mine to shame.
I also collect promising 'cloth of gold' scraps.........they lie abandoned on a shelf grateful for any stray ray of light to show their beauty!

Thanks Yvonne, Rebecca, - everyone! Although I also like the finish that the rings provide, I also feel that they add strength to other wise vulnerable 'bits' that stick out on some of the designs.
Just thought that I'd add that the designs for the bell ringer and drummer boy have been around for many Christmasses in my life - they were originally 'flooded' icing designs that I used on Christmas cakes during my 20 years in that field! (When traditional English fruit cake was still a must in most households here!) Proof yet again of how interchangeable various crafts can be!
