It’s part of my whole finding balance thing and not letting one thing totally take over my time.

Toasty Mitten Advent Calendar.is simply adorable and will add the perfect cozy touch to any home!We had a little adventure here a couple of weeks ago and it was pretty neat to watch actually, so I thought I’d share it with you!

We have a lot of really big old maple trees on our property, with the four biggest ones kind of around the four corners of our house.The very biggest one was right outside of our master bedroom window, but it had been dying a little more every year and making us more and more nervous with the big wind storms that we get out here all the time.It was a pretty tree though!.

We’ve actually had three or four arborists come out to look at it over the last few years and they’ve all said that it really just can’t be saved.Obviously you can’t tell when it’s mid-November and all the leaves are gone, but the whole front half right by the road was dead..

So we had to have it cut down.

It was quite the impressive operation though!.We decided to make a few flowers to decorate the snack table at Kennedy’s birthday one year and I thought I’d take you along for the ride!.

Here’s how to Make Them!.Start out by cutting a strip of felt.

I usually cut a. standard-sized sheet.of felt into three strips.. You can tell from the straightness of my cut that this is another one of my “perfection not required” crafts.
