Holiday Crafternoon

This year we kept it simple with only two ornaments, both made of paper. Here is the Norwegian Star:

We also made adorable paper luminaries (see the Spellbound entry for our inspiration) that use battery tea lights, sheer genius from Cathe Holden. Her website has this template and many others for free. She also has many variations on this cute house. We are looking forward to making huanted Halloween houses next year (when my crooked windows will look more appropriate!)

My friend Jessica helped me make this lovely bunting from crocheted doilies my mom and grandmother made. I included ones I have been collecting over the years. So much nicer to see them out instead of in a box!
