York Peppermint Patty Containers

These are the peppermint patty containers that I made for the craft fair. Since not all of them sold, I put the rest up on my Etsy site. It's www.kristyscraps.etsy.com, if anyone is interested.

Here are my pictures:




I used mostly PTI to decorate the jars. I did find the most adorable miniature bells at Michael's though that I had to tie to the ribbon that goes around the containers. I did two different color schemes; the traditional red and green and then brown and blue.

Winter Frames

I made frames last year using these frames that I found. Boy do I wish I could find more because they are perfect! I am actually going to start an Esty shop which I've been thinking about doing for a while but didn't really have enough stuff to post at the same time. Well, since I didn't sell out at the craft fair, I figured this would be the perfect time. That said, I have an Etsy shop :). I feel so special hehehe. I'm also trying to make some Christmas gifts, including hand-knit scarf, hats, and neck warmers along with wool felt table runners with hand-sewn pictures, stocking stuffers for family members, and a few other gifts. I can't be too specific because I don't want to give anything away. I'm going to post some of the frames that I had displayed at the craft fair. They are all on sale in my Etsy shop. There are also close up shots of all of the mini-frames on Etsy too. My store is called KristyScraps and the link is here.
