wiseheartOkay, here are the (hopefully) last ornaments of this year. In the upper row the little seraphs, in the lower row the Heineken Santas, and some small baubles and stars in-between:
As you can see I've changed the design of the seraphs: I added actual hair and some more stuffing, compared with the prototype on the far left. I like them better this way, although some might think them too chubby. But I'm chubby, too, so they are in good company. ;))
Addendum: If anyone wants ideas for cross-stitch Xmas motifs, look here.
Housework-wise I've made a food run early in the morning (was at Lidl promptly when it opened its doors), we had the bi-weekly cleaning frenzy with everything it entails and I cooked for about 10 minutes: Tütensuppe and leftover coffee cake for the win! Finishing the last two little seraphs was just the icing, so my day was highly efficient.
BTW, I've managed to congratulate H. to her birthday one day too early. Again. Why can't I remember that it's the 31st and not the 30th is beyond me. Old age and all that...
