Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...

 With everything blanketed in snow, my crochet hook's been kept busy over the last week and it's got me feeling festive. So to celebrate, I've crafted my first Christmas cards for sale on Folksy - so excited to finally see my online shop up and running! Alongside these I've also been crocheting Christmas tree ornaments (the first of which should hopefully be listed on Folksy tomorrow night), crafted from ordinary wooden curtain rings, a selection of brightly coloured yarns and fine ribbons for added finesse :)
I wrapped up warm and used the cold weather to dress up the trees and bushes with my festive gear and spent ages taking photos and the results are too cute not to share...

Keep warm! Miss Cooksey x


This is my first crochet covered button and I'm so proud of it even though it's so tiny, I can't wait to make lots more using different techniques and yarns...


 These cute little stockings can't go without a mention to the Little Cotton Rabbits blog, which is full of quick and easy mini knits. These have been part of an ongoing project stemming back at least two years ago now - the plan is to eventually have 25 of these to hang across the mantlepiece during Advent.



 I couldn't resist dressing this bush up; the orange berries looked amazing next to the frost-covered branches!


 My handmade cards are currently for sale online on my Folksy shop in packs of 4 and I'm currently working on designs for Valentine's Day





Lastly, my crochet Christmas ornaments. Made from wooden curtain rings, these are so original and I can't wait for these to join my cards online very soon!
