Yesterday I needed a little “me” time. A little “leave the kids and husband at home” time. See the best thing about Christmas Vacation is that we are all together, all the time… And the worst thing about Christmas Vacation is that we are all together, all the time….
This morning before tackling anything practical like laundry or bed making, I whipped out this “Bonne Annee” banner to hang. I used shipping tags and a new little experiment for making the letters. I am toying with the idea of selling DIY Kits for banner making online and this would be one style option- what do you think?
