Hi Everyone - Lowri here

Today I am sharing some of the work of one of our staff members Diana.  Diana is a gifted artist (in many fields) and she is also a Christmas fanatic!  Today she is sharing a couple of her homemade gifts as well as some of the wonderful Christmas decorations she recently picked up in the US. You can read heaps more on her lovely blog - My Batch of Gingerbread Babies.

These gorgeous stockings were made using the Kaisercraft Christmas Stocking Garland. 

Look at some of these home decoration pieces Diana found on her travels - this is my favorite!

I also love this 25 space cubby - perfect for a Christmas Countdown!

Be sure to visit Diana's blog has she has some really wonderful stories and photos to share from her recent trip to the US to compete in the International Sweet Adelines Competition.
