This year I decided that everyone in the Shaulis family needed a new stocking... We were using our traditional beloved ones of old, and the new additions to the family were using mix matched ones! This Christmas season I took on the task of seamstress and got started... I am not the most accomplished on a sewing machine, but I get the job done... Just a few broken needles and a few exposed seams! I made an outline of our old stockings and added a few more inches to challenge the family stocking stuffer to up her game!
Wife, Mother, Blogger... Creativity is in my bones... I yearn for learning and inspiration... Making life with all the simple pleasures it deserves.
