Karins Kottage Happenings
My sister and daughters and I were so busy last week participating in a Christmas boutique. I made some adorable fluffy wreaths and Christmas stockings.
Plus I made some cute simple ornaments using my Cricut machine, vinyl and wooden Christmas trees.
My youngest daughter loves min doll house things. Emily put together some of the cutest mini Christmas doll house vignettes. Some of which are handmade! Prices range from $8.00 to $40
My other daughter has a small business and brought ready made things to sell like these wooden bowls. A serious deal two for $15!
My sister made lots of lavender rice bags. These are so great whether you use them hot or cold for aches and pains. They are great for kids too and make great stocking stuffers and neighbor gifts.
If any of you are interested in these items leave me a comment as we can ship!
